Arrow Valley Play Area
📍 Redditch, West Midlands
Two age-separated play zones beside a large lake, with food kiosks offering indoor and outdoor seating and free parking. Pram-friendly throughout with scenic lakeside walking routes.
Beautiful location with large open spaces for children to play. The play park has plenty of amusements for all ages. The café has a wide range of food to cater for all tastes. If you are lucky with the weather and a space on the outside seating area you will have a lovely view over the very large lake.
🏆 Family Action Verdict
A strong choice for mixed-age families who want to combine playground time with a lakeside walk. The separate play zones mean toddlers and older children each have space designed for their age group. Families with very young children should prepare for portaloo-only toilet facilities on site.

“I love the lake...we are lucky to have it excellent new playground and the refreshments kiosks are good.....however, the countryside center is closed so toilets are now portaloos....this was of no use to me who was here today alone with my 3month old granddaughter. Couldn't really leave her alone outside!”
