    A really good local park, it's quite big so good for walks and good for pets. They have a good and decent play area for kids. There is a cafe but we have not been to it so cannot comment. If you kid goes to busy bees nursery, the park is a stone throw away.

    My lovely local park. The lake has recently been deep cleaned and refreshed and it's lovely to see ducks swimming happily. If you want to relax on the grounds away from children in a quiet space, there's a space for that as well.

    It was great, specially with little cafe near the playground. They have delicious food and great service by Alex.

    Great local place for younger kids. But when it rains, the routes around the pond are flooded. Be careful of the watery slippery path.

  • 5/5 Katharina S. 7 months ago on Google
    Such a lovely little café and a nice varied space - a pond, a playground, plenty of benches and space.

  • 5/5 Paul J. 7 months ago on Google
    Surprisingly large park with lots of play equipment for all ages of children. A large space for ball games and a lake for, er, looking at. Well stocked cafe with friendly staff and typical London prices.

    Wonderful open space, lovely green lawns. Small well equipped children's play area. Only point of concern is the small pond. Have to keep an eye on young children.

    A lovely place to be. A great place for pets and kids alike. A large open space for ball games. A 15+ set of gym apparatus. Great playground facilities. A pleasant pond.

    Lovely and neat small park, the main attraction: Leo's cafe "Redwood" - excellent!

  • 5/5 D.M 11 months ago on Google
    Great for dogs and children. I heard good reviews about the cafe but haven't tried it yet....will do it on my next visit!

  • 3/5 Margaret P. 11 months ago on Google
    Always litter free and fenced to help keep dogs out but limited play equipment. It suits toddlers to age seven. It's a small play park with a pond and cafe close by. A good place to sit and listen to wild birdsong in the Spring!

    A very wet day but a nice hot latte and a warm welcome from the manager

    Took my granddaughter to my childhood park and although some parts had changed for me she had a great time

    Personally I found this to be a nice park. Had the pleasure of experiencing it on a nice sunny day and you could tell that it's a favourite of the locals. A good place for a gentle stroll or a relaxing read. There's also water fowl for those interested. There is a playground, and a coffee that I could not explore. Reviews seem good for them though. I'd like to see a bit more seating options but there seems to be an adequate number around the pond.

    Great place for children to play, lots of play equipment and grassed areas. A bit of boggy ground behind the climbing frames to avoid ! Nice cafe, very social park

  • 5/5 Miss B's Plan B. 1 year ago on Google
    A fabulous park with so much for the children. Grownups won't be disappointed either thanks to the fantastic cafe serving a good selection of drinks and delicious food, including amazing cakes.

  • 5/5 Ana G. 1 year ago on Google
    Great open space to go for a walk and relax, a picnic with friends.... There is a pound, a playground area for kids and tar walking paths. There is also a cafe, but we didn't visit.

  • 2/5 Dave p. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice park and good to relax in. The pond is filthy and people are throwing rubbish into the pond on a regular basis - feel bad for the ducks!

  • 4/5 Marc O. 2 years ago on Google
    Lovely bit of greenery, not enough parks anymore. Apparently the cafe serves some really good homemade food, they are not open Tuesday or Wednesday, but are for the rest of the week and weekend.

    Lovely little park with a great Cafe. Small park so not good for walkers. Nice to sit in the cafe and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee and a delicious slice of cake .

  • 5/5 Mirella G. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice little park =)

  • 5/5 Jonathan C. 2 years ago on Google
    A pleasant place to stroll around, surprisingly peaceful. Was nice to see the park being used by lots of different people. There is a bit of a litter problem to be honest, but my nephews love "litter picking" when they visit rather than playing which suits me fine as I do not have to expend lots of energy running around after them!

  • 5/5 Somasekhar K. 4 years ago on Google
    This park is great for walking as it has a walking track and a little play area for kids. This park also has a duck pond as well as a small shop for hot drinks.
