📍 New Malden, Greater London
Well-equipped 2-hectare park in New Malden featuring a children's splash pool, tennis courts, mini golf, jungle gym, basketball area, and on-site cafe. Free entry with parking available.
🏆 Funzaroo Verdict
A well-rounded free park that works for families across a wide age range. The splash pool is the headline draw on warm days, tennis and mini golf suit older children, and the jungle gym keeps younger ones occupied. Booking tennis courts online in advance avoids disappointment on busy weekends.

“Did you attend the Wellness Fair at Sir Joseph Hood today? If not, you certainly missed out on a lovely event. There were quite a few stalls and the live entertainment was fabulous. Lots of yoga, and dancing with JV Dance Fitness bringing the event alive with his fantastic dance moves. Great entertainment had by all. If you haven't been down to Sir Joseph Hood, it's a 2 hectare park, with a lovely play area with a kiddies pool and picnic area. There is also a small Putt Putt course (Mini Golf) and a soft play area. Dogs are welcome, so you don't have to leave your best friend at home.”

“Have walked through this park numerous times on the way to work, children have played in the playground lots as well. Splash pool in the kids park is great for kids, especially on a hot day! Booked the tennis courts for the first time - really easy to book online, just bring tennis rackets and balls (mark your balls to avoid getting them mixed up with the serious amateurs and their 50 balls!)”
