★★★★★Featured review by Terri-Ann Pearce

Such a gorgeous and unusual little park! Our favourite one locally. Lots to do, very spongy soft rubber floor, plenty of space to run around and also some grass around the outside for picnics etc

🏆 Family Action Verdict

A solid local playground for families with toddlers and younger children who benefit from the forgiving rubber surface. Bring a picnic and make use of the surrounding grass. Check the roundabout is operational before building a trip around it — it has been reported broken and vandalised.

Overview

The soft surface reduces fall impact and suits unsteady toddlers. Grass areas around the perimeter work for picnics and informal running games. Some equipment has been subject to vandalism — the roundabout has been reported out of action on visits.
