Enjoy diverse outdoor activities including play areas, sports facilities, and community gardens in this welcoming Arthurs Hill green space.

Nuns Moor Park is a thriving green space located in the Arthurs Hill area of Newcastle, featuring informal grassed areas, planted trees, and a good network of paths. The park links Brighton Grove with the Town Moor and provides a vibrant community hub for families and dog walkers alike. Families can enjoy a dedicated play area, two tennis courts, basketball, football, and cricket facilities, plus a small-sided informal grass football pitch. The park is home to The Bike Garden, a community space on the former bowling green offering regular food growing activities. The Community Orchard features over 35 varieties of heritage fruit trees including cherry, pear, apple, quince, mulberry, and hazelnut, alongside a wild flower meadow. The park is particularly popular with families and dog owners, supported by an active volunteer community and various local groups running play and craft activities for all ages. Accessible footpaths suitable for prams and wheelchairs run throughout, and facilities include toilets in the old bowling pavilion. Free entry and outdoor amenities make it an ideal destination for families with children of all ages seeking outdoor recreation and community activities.

A proper canny spot for a day out, especially if you’re after a quieter, community-driven green space.

Beautiful park, lovely for a little wander around! Free parking nearby. It is really pretty in every season! My dogs love their walks around this park too, plenty of places for them to sniff around and also chase their ball when it's quiet. Plenty of bins around which is always handy. There is also a nice kids park and tennis courts. Worth a wander if you are in the area.

Circus time at nuns Moor, circus was 4 stars but the park itself was very poor for parking. I'm disabled and had to park the length of 3 streets away because there was no scheduled parking spaces for the event.
