We went here for abit as we were going to a couple of places in Manchester but can happily say its one of the best parks we've been too. Nothing like this on the wirral by us unless I just havent found it yet!! Slides and play things for both younger and older children. Toilets and parking on site and a farm. Best of all its all free! Definitely worth a visit. We will be going back.

Lovely park with lots of space to have a picnic, go for a walk/run. Has a petting zoo. Has an outdoor cafe with food trucks, a little pricey but as with anywhere that has the same setup. Has a parking lot but might not have enough space when it's busy.

Beautiful park with lots of space for a walk and plenty of space for dogs too. Tennis courts, biking ramps, cafe, massive play area, horses and piggies in their areas and the entire park is clean throughout! Parking isn't really sufficient for the sheer size of the park but super handy that it's free. Would 100% recommend for a day out with kids or even just adults.

Wythenshawe Park & Gardens is a fantastic venue for live music — loads of space, a relaxed atmosphere, and a really well-organised setup. The whole place felt safe and easy to get around, even with big crowds. I went for the Kneecap and Fontaines D.C. concert, and it honestly exceeded expectations. The sound quality was spot on — clear, powerful, and balanced no matter where you stood. You could really feel the energy from both acts without it ever becoming distorted or overwhelming. Overall, a brilliant night: great music, great sound, and a venue that really works for live events. Definitely one I’d go back to.

Always enjoy visiting here, took my girls for the first time in a while. They really enjoyed playing, exploring and visiting the animals. We went on a Monday and didn't realised the indoor part isn't opening on Monday's and Tuesdays. Definitely gives us another reason for going back for a visit so they can get the full experience 😌 they also have a mini outdoor gym play section and nature trails. If you've never been with the littles ones it's definitely worth going. Even better when the weather is warmer.
