Lovely place. Toilets were surprisingly clean for a country spot. You can even wash your dog in a machine!

Park and walks amazing. Cafe needs a good clean. Staff need training to smile and be polite . They were so miserable. Was given a dirty tray with my purchases. Outside tables and ground littered with rubbish x.

Lovely cafe by the riverside park. The staff are so helpful, even on the hottest day, huge portions, and beautiful display of tempting cakes and scones

Lovely little park. Has a play area and a café. Would highly reccomend bringing small children but the river is not safe to bathe in. Great place to come cycling. Has a nearby train station and an NE dogwash. Great place for an afternoon out and has plenty of space for playing cricket and other sports with friends or kids.
