What a wonderful park either to take children to run wild or just to walk and enjoy the scenery and the cascades. There is also a playground for youngsters to have fun in as well. The cafe is well stocked with cakes and scones. Pleasant service and very clean. The £1 parking fee was £1 well spent. More

The lake is great for toddlers who want to feed the ducks and the cafe is good value. It'll cost you a £1.00 for parking and gives... More
