A compact neighbourhood playground in Gorgie/Dalry ideal for local families with toddlers, featuring a rotating bowl and spring horse.

This small community park in Edinburgh's Gorgie/Dalry area serves neighbourhood families with very young children rather than visitors from across town. The fenced playground occupies one corner, featuring a toddler play unit with slide and fireman's pole, a single larger slide, rotating bowl, and spring horse. Rubber ground cover ensures safe surfacing, and benches provide seating for caregivers. The open lawn area surrounds the play space. Several bus routes (2, 3, 4, 25, 33, 44) serve nearby Murieston Crescent. While earning a thumbs up for local use, it's honestly positioned as perfectly suited for nearby residents rather than a destination requiring special trips.

Public park, a little bit further away from heavy traffic. Lots of dogs being walked, who need to do their business, but there is a dog-free fenced off children's play area.
