★4.5(1,251 Google reviews)💰Free👶All ages

Well-maintained Victorian park in King's Heath with two separate children's playgrounds, woodland walking trails, a wildlife pond with bench seating, a cafe, ice cream, and on-site toilets. Flat pram-friendly paths throughout.

✓ Woodland trails✓ Wildlife pond✓ Two play areas✓ Victorian grounds✓ Cafe and ice cream✓ Pushchair accessible

🏆 Funzaroo Verdict

Families looking for a relaxed multi-hour park visit rather than a single attraction get the most here. The combination of active play, quiet woodland, and wildlife watching suits a wide age range from toddlers to grandparents. Two separate play areas mean younger and older children can head to different spots.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

💡Two car parks on-site — arrive early with a larger vehicle as spaces are tight
⏰Bring a takeaway drink and sit by the pond to watch the water birds
🎟️Visit in spring for snowdrops, daffodils, and flowering trees across the grounds
🚗Flat paths throughout make it fully navigable with a pushchair or wheelchair

“A popular park, deservedly so. Well kept with very varied areas. We love the woodland walk, the bird song was beautiful. The pond area is lovely, we sat there having a take away coffee, listening and watching the water birds. So much to enjoy. Two childrens'areas, very popular. Lots of seasonal flowers, starting with carpets of snow drops, followed by crocus, daffodils etc. Our only regret is that what used to be called 'The T.V. garden" is not open to the public.”

“I love this beautiful park, with it's elegant Victorian tea rooms, equally historic mulberry bush and beautiful selection of trees. You can even buy organic veg which is grown here. I've spent many a summer's day here, regenerating, usually near the tennis courts and the bowling green...”

The park connects to an adjacent garden centre selling organic produce grown on-site. Flat, clear paths make the whole site accessible for pushchairs and wheelchairs.
