A great easy park. It would be perfect for rollerblading or for young ones to cycle around. The cafe was lovely and it was nice to see everything is well maintained and looked after.

The park was a lovely place, a beautiful place to have a walk. A place for all abilities and good for wheelchairs. Beautiful duck pond and gardens.

Been to Victoria Park today with my 5 year old daughter to feed the ducks, geese and swans. Very tame and friendly animals (still exercise caution of course!) but some eat out of your hands. There's a machine that dispenses bird seed/food for £1, card payment only. Daughter loved it!

This park is a fantastic place for a lovely walk with children! We had a wonderful time exploring the paths and enjoying the fresh air. The highlight of the trip was definitely the stunning pond and the huge variety of birds living there. It is very convenient that there is a special kiosk where you can buy proper bird food – the kids were absolutely delighted to feed them! After the walk, there are plenty of benches to sit down and relax. It's a perfect spot for a family outing in nature. Highly recommended!
