    It's a lovely park which has play park structures that are quite different to the standard climbing jungle gyms etc that you find at most parks. I would have most definitely rated this park a 5 star had it not been for the slight lack of maintenance of it such as keeping the grass short. It also has soft play sand (sea sand) which is great for the kids to play in.

    A lovely park. No toilet facilities otherwise would be perfect.

    Improved recently. More activities for smaller children, like cage swings, standing puzzles, rockers, and more seating and picnic tables. Slightly more separation between older and younger sections. But the zip wire in the older children's part is very tame, too slack, slippery at the mounting hill, and needs attention. Good amount of tree shelter in hot weather, and enough vegetation to provide some wind shelter in chilly weather.

    Great play facilities, sand, swings, zip line and actually entertaining climbing frames. Partly under renovation (I hope, or the cordoned off sections are for some other reason) but you could still get a good few hours play. Big field for ballgames but no toilets.

    Looks like a great playground, we visited whilst raining, I think it would be a lot better in the dry.

    Great park, with a section for 1-3yr olds and an adventure/natural play zone older kids can enjoy as well - swings, rope nets, zip line, balance beams, spinner, etc, plus a balance hammock that my two had a blast on, especially as it was filled with water from a recent downpour! Huge green space good for running and flying planes and kites, plus a basketball court, small skateboard ramp and free parking. Just missing toilets and a cafe to be perfect.

👍👍 More than I realised here for the kids in the park. Toilets, all weather pitch, sometimes even a coffee/snack van. With a two-year old and 11-year old, there was enough for both of them to do and places for me to supervise them both as needed.
