Tourist attraction Country park

👍👍 Bike ride out with two of my children, was a nice place to ride to. Plenty of benches to sit at, although the main road is fairly close at some places, but plenty of trees and bushes to dampen the sound. Nice place, a bit of a hidden haven in between the A1M and the road to Letchworth/Baldock. People often mention walk, area, lovely,

    Delightful small area of ancient meadow, arable land and set aside. Parking and bike racks not far from the main road (follow signposts for Radwell Meadows). Makes for a delightful afternoon or late summer’s evening walk.

    Lovely place to walk with the family and dogs. Path mostly suitable for prams although tad bumpy beat the car park. Car park a tad small and imagine it gets busy during good weather. No cafe or restroom facilities.

    A hidden gem of a walk, not far from the road with good parking and plenty of routes to avoid bumping into people. Some picnic tables too.

    Love to take the dogs here. Good car park. Lovely circular walk through woods and fields. Nice river. Great in the summer as plenty of water for the dogs to cool off in. Cattle do graze in the fields in the summer so dogs do need to be kept on a lead. Good play area for children and some picnic tables. No public facilities

    Whilst it’s recommended as a walk where dogs are kept on leads (greenway code and cattle etc.), despite the signage this isn’t case so if you’re looking to walk your dog unbothered this isn’t the place to go. Apart from that it’s a nice little place, feels quite urban as surrounded by the A1 but it’s a nice short loop walk.

    Lovely walks here and there, little bridges and wildflowers. Any season it's lovely - but take proper boots if it's been raining!

    Great place to go for a walk in the countryside, Good children's play area. Dog friendly walks. Part of a much longer set of paths and cycle tracks around Letchworth. But as it's countryside, the paths can get very muddy,

    Great day out on the Letchworth Country Walk. Circa 15 miles around Letchworth, skirt around the town touching Baldock and Hitchin. Great views of the countryside and wildlife. Take on the whole walk or just part of it. The walk is fairly flat and well accessible for walking amongst trails through farms and fields, some roads need to be navigated. The local map used to navigate the course isn't to scale and many of the signposts are not the easy to find, so be prepared to make a few wrong turns.

    This place used to be lovely but all the cool figures have gone so not much for kids to do. Bring back the figures

  • 3/5 Richard S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place to go dog walking, although it’s a real shame about the people who think it’s ok not to pick up their dog dirt and then there’s the horses that do so much damage to the walks

  • 4/5 Bernice W. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice flat walk with a few bridges over streams to cross. Free car park. Also has a children's play area.

  • 4/5 Xander B. 1 year ago on Google
    A really nice farm that is reasonably priced. Probably more geared for smaller children as we took an 11 year old and we did have fun however after going round once that was it but a very good value for money.

  • 3/5 Tim W. 1 year ago on Google
    The area is lovely but it is missing the Wind in the Willows displays and the play park is padlocked closed.

  • 3/5 Vicki D. 1 year ago on Google
    Such a beautiful place, lovely for a walk. It is however marred by a lot of dog mess at the moment, both in bags and just left. Apparently the Heritage Foundation wants to put more bins around, but at present it is a real issue. Dogs are also often let off leads despite a sign at the entrance. Keep your wits about you if taking children.

    The meadows are great, so many cowslips. Wind in the willows wicker sculptures. A picnic area and lovely walks.

  • 4/5 Letchworthlass 2 years ago on Google
    A good circular walk taking in the swans, geese and lake. Sadly the willow sculptures are long gone due to vandalism and the walk isn't waymarked.

👍👍 Right in the center of the town, there is the perfect park for spending time on a sunny day. It is especially nice to come here with children and babies.
