A beautiful place with a decent playground for the little ones.
It's a really lovely place to spend a day or afternoon. Lots for the little ones to keep them active. The woods are brilliant so many big old trees and plants to look at. You can picture the history of this place as your walking especially through the woods upto bagshaw museum. I walk there from Morley with my children and they think it's great. The only let down is the children's platy park. It could do with a facelift and a clean as it's looking a little run down and some gates so little ones can't escape and dogs can't venture in but still other than this I will keep on coming and enjoying our family time there.
Beautiful park with a play area. It's got a duck pond with plenty of ducks/swans. The ducks are always happy to be fed! There is a short walk up to Bagshaw museum.
Lovely park beautiful lake and the woods are a true adventure . This park is well looked after . There's benches everywhere even in the woods with guide sign's for easy walking and are wheelchair accessible . Lovely cafe 😋 . Parking is plentiful . Love watching the duck's and swans 🦢 and Canada geese 🦆 . I've been twice now and is now going to be a regular treat for both me and my dog 🐾🐾 . I find something new to look at every time 👏👏👏👏 .
Nice place to visit with family or friends. It’s spring time and weather presently nice nowadays. U can enjoy all day long. Parking is good enough. There is walking track for walking and running lovers. Benches are everywhere so you can find a place easily when u feel tired. And there is a museum as well. In fact this Park name is Bagshaw Museum and Wilton Park. So u must visit museum.
