I enjoyed the meal very much and I cannot fault the service I would like to mention Nicola who was very attentive and polite.
Lovely park - part wooded and open green landscape with lake and wildfowl plus Aviary, glass Arboretum and cafe
Great Park but we visited on the hottest day for years and only 2 of us around, apart from the ducks
I visit the park quite a lot. It normally has lots of events like car boots and a bonfire display, obviously not this year. It's been improved by the Chat parks association no end over the last few years; proper paths, litter picks. People do disrespect it with litter still, but overall, it's pleasant if a little busy at at times. A full circuit can be done in about 35 minutes. Good bus links with several routes stopping close by and quite a bit of free parking.
Such a beautiful park to visit.Very well kept, a lot to see and has something for everyone.Initaly a little difficult to know where to head when parked up But once you start your trail it becomes quite easy.The beautiful flower garden was breath taking to see all the various flowers and plants.And to read all the in memory of plaqs.Loved the indoor plant conservatory with all the amazing cactus to. A little sad to see all the birds in the large cages especially in this heat.Some more distressed then others.However nice to see the beautiful of all god creations.Most definitely worth a visit.Even if its just for a bike ride x
