A lovely scenic view! We did the extended loop around meadowside to Stapenhill Gardens. Loved the boardwalk and mini cascade or flowing river water. Its just a shame that some parts of the features along the trails have been graffitied. Great views up and down the Ferry bridge. Its nice to see wildlife just roam around.

Fantastic place for a walk! The atmosphere changes beautifully with the weather and seasons. Great playgrounds for kids, a huge open field perfect for dog walking, and it’s always clean.

It is a lovely clean and interesting place. Great to walk dogs with plenty of open spaces and chances for a swim. Lots of interesting things to see on your walk and parking was free. Picnic tables and benches everywhere.

It's a Very nice park with lots of swans and geese. It has kiddies playground. The car park is very small, for about six cars? The smallest car park i have seen. But, i believe its free, at least i haven't noticed any pay signs.

It's really a beautiful sight to be held. I could spend the whole day watching this pleasant scenery. The river flowing, the swans, the scene is so breathtaking. Nice, I love it!
