πŸ† Funzaroo Verdict

A well-equipped recreation ground that suits toddlers through adults. The playground anchors younger children as older kids and adults use the tennis courts and fitness equipment. The mini woodland at the back extends the visit beyond the main play area and connects to additional green space.

β€œToday my husband and l went to visit Recreation ground the back of Chislehurst Library. Hasn't chanced much since my last visit about 35 years ago. Although it has a new play park for the kids and a new cafe with toilets. The woods at the back goes up to the fields the back of Victoria Road. You can still see Redhill School from the woods, where l went to school 57 years ago. It's a lovely park thats why l give it 5 stars⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

β€œWhile the better half was in the dentist, I had the opportunity to walk the dog around the rec which was really peaceful even though there were plenty of people there and children playing on the swings with a couple of keep fit groups doing what they do. When my wife joined me with all her teeth in tact, we had a very good coffee and sausage roll at the Rec's community cafe. Well worth a visit.”

β€œLove a jog, stroll, picnic or chill here. They have a tennis club you can join. A play-park for the kids. Table tennis tables, a cafe and lots n lots of green space. Oh and there's a mini forest which you can walk through to the other side of the park with more greenery. Lots of friendly dog walkers too.”
