Well-maintained rectangular park in Croydon with free tennis and basketball courts, an enclosed dog exercise area, children's playground, and tree-lined scooter-friendly paths. No on-site toilets or refreshments.
🏆 Funzaroo Verdict
Best for active families with older children who want outdoor sports without a formal booking or cost. The free tennis and basketball courts are well-maintained and first-come. Dog-owning families benefit from the enclosed off-lead area adjacent to the play zone.

“I've brought up my children around this park. It's a lovely, clean dog friendly park with good tennis courts and now, a new basketball court. It's good that the tennis courts are free but some people still use the courts to play football and this ruins the nets. It would be nice for polite reminder signs to be placed in this area. There are 3 entrances into the park so good access for all.”

“What a lovely park, well used by community, but also well looked after. People were very friendly. A great enclosed area to take your dog of lead. I went there because of the enclosed area for my puppy, but I was pleasantly surprised. I will be going back.”
