Impressively
large
and
well
kept
public
park
with
easy
access
from
Derby
city
centre.
Lots
of
wide
open
green
spaces,
the
river
Derwent
running
through
it
and
surrounded
by
trees,
including
some
amazing
specimen
trees.
The
walled
herbaceous
boarder
garden
is
nice
and
peaceful
with
bees
and
butterflies
happily
going
about
their
business.
To
the
rear
of
the
herbaceous
garden
is
the
walled
hydrangea
garden
which
is
part
of
the
national
collection
and
is
hugely
impressive
with
each
variety
named.
There's
a
cafe
selling
hot/cold
drinks,
hot/cold
food
and
ice
cream
with
a
toilet
around
the
corner
(the
cafรฉ
is
cash
only),
there's
also
a
small
children's
playground
too.
This
has
become
our
go
to
place
for
a
gentle
walk
or
bike
ride
or
just
to
escape
the
endless
concrete
of
Derby
city
centre.
