πŸ† Funzaroo Verdict

Best for families with older children who enjoy a relaxed nature walk in a well-maintained Victorian setting. The riverside path is the highlight in all seasons. Young children will enjoy the wildlife and open space, and there is a small playground. Plan toilet stops before arrival and navigate using the park name rather than the postcode.

⏰No public toilets in the park - the nearby museum has facilities (check opening days)

β€œA serene and peaceful park, perfect for a morning walk, especially with the river running alongside. The park is spacious, offering plenty of room to explore, and the presence of seagulls, ducks, and pigeons adds to the tranquil atmosphere. Whether you're looking for a quiet moment in nature or simply a refreshing walk, this park provides an ideal setting. I liked it the most when I was snapping pictures of these birds and they were posing like models.”

β€œA well restored Victorian park with traditional flower beds, original dedicated statue, wild areas, open and manicured open fields and a few modern touches. I was pleased to see that the park retained it's original dedication.”

β€œOne of my favourite parks, even in the winter. During the spring flower beds are planted and the trees are gorgeous. There’s a beautiful river streaming through that just adds to the calming atmosphere of the place.”
