We happened upon this one, but it's a great playground with lots of options for older and younger children. There's even quite a challenging climbing wall for the adventurous!

A pretty good play park for the small people, not far from High Street and just next to the church. There are loos just the otherside of the church so not far if needed...! The playground itself is spread out and has a fence round the large area that is occupies. There is space for ball games and then all the usual play equipment you would expect. My young 'un confirms it does not get the magical 5 stars as there was no zip line!

Lovely play ground for all ages. Will help burn off some energy. Smaller football pitch if you have a ball. Table tennis as well but again bring your own bats and balls .

Set about half a mile away from the beach, and right next to the enormous church, this is a lovely little play park in the middle of Southwold. However, over the years it's sort of been neglected, and it just looks and feels a bit tired now. It could do with some newer play equipment, especially for older kids, and removing those bits that squeek horribly when used!
