๐Ÿ† Funzaroo Verdict

Best for families with children who can handle climbing equipment without soft surfaces, and who enjoy a natural, active park setting rather than a purpose-built playground. The wildlife - particularly the hand-feeding squirrels - is a genuine highlight for children of all ages.

โ„น๏ธ What to Know Before You Go

๐Ÿ’กBring monkey nuts to hand-feed the squirrels - they take food directly from your fingers
โฐLook for the drinks and snacks van near the top park entrance
๐ŸŽŸ๏ธThe play area is partially open rather than fully fenced - keep an eye on young children
๐Ÿš—Bowling club is open to visitors - worth checking for a family game

โ€œOn this occasion, I went to the park to play bowls, the club was friendly, the green was good and we had a lovely afternoon playing there. The park has tennis courts, kiddies, playground, the park is a green lung in the south Bristol area, a huge space of beautiful trees and grassland. A haven for runners and walkers it never seems crowded, but the park has lots of people doing their thing there. By the top entrance, there will usually be a van selling drinks and snacks, also the local community selling surplus fruit and veg. Well worth a visit.โ€
