My 5 year old nephew absolutely loved it. There is a nice walk nearby too if you walk to the top of the slide and walk to your left. Some horses fields & a country lane

Well there's a field with goal posts and a playground with a good few things to climb on, sea saw and a big swing. It was all very nice but unfortunately it's not kept upto and the local nob heads have decided that it's a good idea to destroy or burn as much as they can. That said it's not as bad as it could be. The floor though is very uneven as the wood chippings have almost all gone.
