Great playground sadly a bit run down in parts, nice walk around & duck pond. Basket ball court, plenty of space for football & bike riding. There are toilets, but they aren't very clean. Parking is RUBBISH on a sunny day.

Wallace Park in Lisburn is an absolute treasure! It's a truly wonderful spot for families, offering vast green spaces perfect for a stroll, a picnic, or letting the kids burn off some energy. The play park itself is fantastic, boasting a great range of equipment that keeps children happily entertained for hours. It's clear a lot of thought has gone into making this a vibrant and welcoming community space. However, it's a real pity that the toilets at the play park are consistently in a disgraceful state. This really lets down an otherwise brilliant facility and detracts from the overall positive experience. Regular cleaning and maintenance are desperately needed to bring them up to the same excellent standard as the rest of the park. Despite the issue with the toilets, Wallace Park remains a highly recommended destination for its beautiful surroundings and superb play facilities. We always enjoy our visits and look forward to the day the toilet facilities reflect the quality of the rest of this lovely park.

Beautiful place to walk, especially for dogs, coffee shop on site, and meeting some lovely people on walk. Wheelchair accessible. I just took 1 star off for the toilets. They are absolutely stinking, the smell is so bad it made me heave, at 10am 😢 Ladydixon toilets are always cleaned 1st thing every morning. Maybe be great if they could get a good scrub with beach. As it's a wonderful park.

Lovely park grounds and great play park. Lots of baby ducks at the pond. Lost 2 stars for the state of the toilets. The stench coming from them even just walking past is disgusting. Nice dog friendly coffee shop which is fairly new. Dogs loved their puppachino and the coffee was great too!
