Mountsfield Park

“What a treat. I had heard about this park but had never actually been there. Until that day...well, I tell you. What a vibe. It is such a nice park. Seeing the kids playing , families doing their own thang, people chillin. Everyone together but not together. The children playing and laughing. The cafe caffing, the loos looing. It was so nice here. I thoroughly enjoyed myself here and look forward to coming again soon. This park is a real park...”

“Went for a walk and coffee and cake with the family at this park. It’s a very big and lovely park. We prefer to visit during the quieter times. This park as an outdoor gym, play ground, cafe and public toilets. There is a community garden too but doesn’t look maintained at all apart from that this is an amazing park for the whole family.”

“One of the best local parks I’ve been to. Well maintained, good coffee shop, fun playground, something for all age groups.”

“What a lovely family friendly, chilled out green space this is! The locals are fortunate indeed to have it. I went specifically to see the statue of Ella, the little girl who was determined to have died due to the poor air quality, in our city, which was unveiled, a few days ago. It was poignant that the statue was the same height and size, as the child when she passed away. Her mother is to be commended for her tireless work in her child's name, to raise awareness and fight the authorities about the environmental factors which contributed to her death. Without doubt, she would much rather her daughter were still with her but, nevertheless, she has done her child's memory, proud.”
