This park is well worth visiting and walking through the pathways past flower beds and along the side of the running stream. There was a cafe for ice creams, drinks and food etc.
The skatepark is low-key good, There’s a nice big bowl and a couple quarter pipes, Very nice rail and a platform to do ollies off and on, However sometimes even when it’s not raining some parts of the park are wet and the park gets infested with scooter kids, if you get there early enough it’s a good park.
A beautiful open space with well kept and attractive gardens, generous and safe playgrounds for all ages, a skate park, a model boat boating lake and a paddling pool. Hot drinks and ice creams can be purchased too. This is a very busy place when it's sunny and still popular regardless of the weather. A great way to spend an afternoon, meeting up with friends and entertaining the kids.
Very beautiful, lots of fresh air. Great for a walk around
A very welcoming and inclusive crowd
