    Nice family Park. Differently areas for different age groups. There's a children's section with small rides and an area for football and basketball. A cafe is in the middle of the park but I haven't seen it open. There's no parking available so you'd need to park on the side roads, which are plenty. Some shops nearby for added convenience is a bonus. Generally well kept.

    This park is lovely. It was a big part of my life when growing up. There's a great walk around the park with a little stream running through it. It also has a play area for children and a gym. The only negative is the uneven ground in the play area. The dips and potholes need seeing to

    Well maintained and well equipped park. Feel safe when here in the daytime. Used to come for a daily stroll with my newborn, had many different paths, of varying gradients so was good for getting the heart rate up. Good area for childrens play equipment, has the outside gym area too, an area where people tend to play cricket, there is a cafe there though I've never been inside, toilets are available (again never used them) and there are many ways to enter and exit the park.

    It was amazing, full of love and nature! A place where the sky is beautiful at sunsets, lovely place for cycling as well! I would definitely recommend it to others either for a walk, run, jog, exercise, etc.

    Was much better any years ago when Id visit as a child, play football in the cage and my siblings would enjoy the play area. Nowadays the overpowering smell of you know what just makes it an unattractive place to come with kids.

    You can cycle, enjoy the river or play in the playground. There's also an outdoor gym, a good park for those getting fit outside the gym. Lovely trees and lots of greenery, a great place to bring family.

    One of beautiful landscapes visited in last couple of months with full of peaceful environment and memorizing views with sounds of playing kids, singing birds and relaxing parents along with a number of jogging, playing and exercising people over there, especially during such a sunny days, like when I visited and tried to capture these pictures as well.

    Free parking available on roadside. Good for kids and for a evening walk. It is on a small hill so slope landscape. Usually clean and maintained. . Food shops available outside the park area for a quick picnic. No car access inside park.

    A welcome green space in the middle of the frankly ugly, boring urban jungle. Brilliant especially when the sun is out and trees and flowers in bloom. Great place to simply breathe, and/ or let the little brats run wild. There's a cafe/ restaurant as well, so could make for a decent Summer's day out. Just do the environment a favor and take your trash with you when you go. There are public bins around as well, so let's apply a little common sense and not ruin any more of the city...

    Pleasant area in good condition plenty of seating and play areas. Brook over grown but good for wildlife. Great pity that the café is closed with a quality operator it should prove popular. The park is popular.

  • 5/5 Davina K. 1 year ago on Google
    Love this park it’s got a great play area for children, there aren’t too many dogs wandering around so playing on the green is pretty safe. There are great spots to picnic only downside of this park is there are no toilets.
