A beautiful open play area for all ages, with a sand area. Great country paths for dog walkers, or paths within the areas for those who don't like dogs. Quiet, cool walks along the nine springs waterfalls. I visited the country park with my daughter, along the walk we picked blackberries. It took an hour and half to walk around. Many quirky, quaint little secret paths that my daughter enjoyed finding. Parking on site, or nearby parking which is free on a Sunday. There is a cafe and toilets onsite, plenty of seating around.

Beautiful place. Waterfall after waterfall if you follow the well maintained path from the lake up the hill. Would definitely come again

A fairly small park located along the river with plenty of activities and play areas. For me the walk up the springs lakes is lovely and I'm not certain I've seen such a pretty cascade of waterfalls each from it's own little stone built lake

Almost magical. With idyllic scenary and views around every corner and turn with mini waterfalls, woods, ponds, streams and stone features. Great for walking and fresh air. Popular for friendly dog walkers as well. Great all round.
