Brilliant recreation park, took my grandson today, we haven't been for a long time and was very pleasantly surprised how wonderful it is, the park and exercise/gym area are excellent, the tennis court is a great way to burn off some energy, also he loved trying to see the birds in the sanctuary . Really great for all the local children to have such a lovely place on their doorstep.

🏆 Family Action Verdict

An excellent all-round park for families with children of varying ages. Younger children use the play area; older children and teens have the caged sports zones and tennis court; parents can use the outdoor gym alongside. The bird sanctuary adds a nature element that works well for curious children. Underused relative to its quality — rarely busy.

â„šī¸ What to Know Before You Go

💡Bring rackets — the tennis court is available and rarely occupied
⏰Outdoor gym equipment sits next to the play area so parents can exercise as children play
đŸŽŸī¸Caged basketball and football zones suit older children and teens
🚗Bird sanctuary rewards patient visitors — quieter early morning visits yield best sightings
