Such a lovely park. I went when it first opened and the weather was nice. It was clean and safe. There was a security person and there is no smoking which I love. Just been back a couple of years later and altho it was not the best weather, the park is still outstanding. I don’t live locally but it’s a 5 min walk from Piccadilly station. Totally accessible for everyone and anyone. Coffee/refreshments available on site and Freight Island next door for food hall
We had a wonderful visit to Mayfield Park, one of the best playgrounds we've taken the boys too plus the added bonus of the Cathedral of Sound art guitar installation which the kids were obsessed with. They've done a fantastic job with this park, we will definitely be visiting again
Great park. Would be perfect with some rain canopies and more picnics benches. But very good overall. Great slides..open area with river. Little cafe and ice cream van.
Fantastic park in a usual place, but it's been made beautiful ! It's great to see wildlife in the middle of piccalilli ! We saw an otter in the stream ! The park is fantastic for all ages ! The added bonus of a coffee cabin, ice cream van, toilets, and benches overlooking the green space. Little piece of paradise in the city !
We have great fun in this playground, have 2 separate visits within 24 hours. Very popular. Modern design, all metal construction, rope bridge interlinked towers, multiple slide options, include one that will take you across the river. There are windows on those long slides. Usual swings, see saw, roundabout n balancing beams. Parking options, on street parking in the form of unmarked roads on and adjacent roads to chapelfield road. Off road parking is available at the other end of the Mayfield park.
