It's a small nice place to take your kids and have a good time.

🏆 Family Action Verdict

A reliable choice for families with children aged 2–8 who want a calmer playground session without competing for equipment. The Sefton Park setting adds space for picnics and running around beyond the play structures. Families visiting on busy weekend days often find this spot noticeably less hectic than the main park playground.

Can be a little quieter than some playgrounds, but it is well equipped with a couple of sets of conventional swings, a bell-shaped one and a tyre type one. A big slide and two smaller ones for the sliding needs, a rope climb and an assault course are also present. If you have the stomach for them, there are a few rotating spinney rides as well. Prefer this to the larger ones due to it being a little more discreet, especially during the pandemic. Two picnic benches to put teddy-bears on compete the site.

This is a decent playground in a stunning location on the edge of wonderful Sefton Park. There is plenty of grass and space in the playground, and a pleasant if not stunning range of slides and so on. Most things are in full working order and there's a range of things to amuse children from around 2 to 8.

The little swing park was less busy than the one in sefton park. So the boys had no trouble with waiting to get on the different play things. It seemed less hectic so a lot better. Would recommend as an alternative to the main swing park at sefton.
