“We love this park any time any day, busy or not. The swimming lake has been reopened and is now better organised than the original opening day. It's a great place for those who enjoy wild swimming! The cafe in the Mansion House sells the best coffee I've tasted.”

“The park has been hugely updated. Excellent kids playground made from natural materials, and a lake for swimming (entry fee and conditions, see council website). New cafe and small restaurant is not expensive and good quality”
