Good
sized
park.
Gets
very
busy
at
weekends
and
holidays.
We
visit
during
the
week
when
it's
a
bit
quieter.
Nice
area/woods
for
a
walk
and
picnic,
duck
pond
(needs
a
general
clean
up),
ride-on
trains
(not
seen
these
active
for
a
number
of
years),
good
sized
play
ground
for
children,
a
number
of
other
paid
activities
available
should
you
like
crazy
golf,
high
ropes,
etc.
The
walled
gardens
are
nice
for
picnics
and
ball
games
(being
respectful
of
others
seated
nearby
and
keeping
fingers
crossed
dogs
are
controlled
and
called
off
when
bounding
up
to
young
children).
Kitchen
gardens
are
pleasant
to
walk
through
when
open.
Parking
is
paid
on
exit.
Toilets
located
need
the
food
court;
there
are
usually
clean
however,
the
soap
dispenser
in
the
ladies
was
broken
on
our
previous
visit.
A
number
of
options
for
coffee,
cakes,
ice
cream
and
lunch.
We
have
eaten
at
the
cafe
supplied
by
All
You
Knead.
Nice
variety
of
cakes,
pies
and
drinks.
Reasonably
priced.
The
cakes
were
very
big
and
staff
were
happy
to
provide
additional
cakes
so
children
could
share
the
brownie.
Ice
cream
shop
has
lots
of
variety.
Lots
of
dogs
and,
as
with
most
public
parks,
there
is
the
constant
need
to
check
grass
when
walking
through
so
you
don't
tread
in
dog
mess
which
hasn't
been
cleared
away.
Not
sure
when
dogs
became
more
important
than
people
however,
this
is
generally
not
a
dog
problem,
this
is
an
entitled,
lazy
dog
owner
problem.
