What it’s like
Free play park with a proper play area for under 12s, an outdoor gym and open grass for football.
This is a straightforward park visit rather than an attraction with a ticket booth. There's a play area built for under 12s, an outdoor gym if you fancy a go while the kids are on the swings, and open grassed areas with football pitches for anyone who's brought a ball or just wants to run about on flat grass. It's free to get in, which makes it an easy add-on to a longer day rather than something you have to plan around.
The play area is the bit your children will head for first, and with the age range going up to 12 there's enough there to hold older kids as well as the little ones, not just a toddler set-up. The football pitches and open grass are the obvious spot to burn an hour if the play equipment gets boring, and they're useful if you've got more than one child with different ideas of fun.
There's parking on site and the park is listed as wheelchair accessible, so it's not a difficult one to get to if you're pushing a buggy or need step-free paths. Because it's free and open, there's no session length to worry about and no booking to sort out. You turn up, let the kids loose on the play area or the pitches, and leave when you're ready.
