What travellers are saying
- Megan OBayside, Australia16 contributionsA spectacular garden. So beautiful. We took my granny around it and she just loved it. The flowers were in bloom and it was just gorgeous.😍Written 30 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- greenprincess222Pembrokeshire, UK472 contributionsWe enjoyed our time at the country park, the woodland area is not at all wheelchair accessible and is unsuitable for guests with limited mobility. Path along top of beach is hard standing and suitable or wheelchairs and guests with limited mobility.Written 27 May 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- MoHamWest Sussex, UK117 contributionsPlenty of variety; well organised, a fun place to be. 4-year-old loved it. Spent £20 on tokens for the rides that required them, Good value because of the variety with plenty of 'free' play items to fill out a couple of hours with ease - plus stopping for ice cream. Friendly helpful young staff. Only major downside was the toilets which, towards the end of the afternoon, had obviously not been cleaned and in some cases were disgusting. Pity because everything else would be recommended for a visit and would have been worth 5 starsWritten 2 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- TravellingDaveBPortsmouth, UK212 contributionsThe museum is small, but packed with items of local interest. There was a friendly welcome, and free admission. I wish I could have spent more time there, but had a train to catch later in the day. Well worth a visit.Written 26 July 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Flamingo14Formby, UK743 contributionsThis marina is absolutely beautiful. It helped that we visited on a gloriously sunny day, we felt like we were in Spain! There are so many lovely boats and the water is so clear. The pier and surrounding areas are well kept. We found a bench and just sat watching the sea and the boats, it was very relaxing.Written 2 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- kensmoonLincoln, UK988 contributionsWe have enjoyed many walks in this popular park, feeding the ducks and geese, appreciating the trees and flowers and other attractions, including a gun from a First World War German U-boat.Written 3 September 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- PaigeAldergrove, UK4 contributionsBeautiful nature trail with such a lovely setting. Be careful though as some folk are racing around on their bicycles near knock you over.
Still a beautiful must see walk if you're in the areaWritten 30 October 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - John ABelfast, UK1,430 contributionsThe promenade at the back of the beach is the perfect place to exercise.
At a time when we are only allowed to go outside once a day for exercise and to stave off cabin fever as the coronavirus rages through the country, the promenade gives everyone the chance to observe social distancing rules in safety.Written 30 March 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - Kirsty W15 contributionsBooked Eddie Irvine's for my husbands 30th. Stuart was super helpful at helping me sort out a package for this. We did 30mins karting and laser combat. The karting was great and Ewan was great at explaining everything to us and helped everyone have a safe but fun karting experience. Laser combat was amazing too, huge room with lots of "hide aways". Would highly recommend and we will definitely be back. Thanks guys!Written 30 May 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- DogFriendlyTravelLondon, UK22 contributionsWe go here regularly with the dog. While it is a relatively small beach, it is very clean.
It can get very busy at weekends though so worth going down early to ensure carparking space.Written 3 May 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - Tommy Mmag1 contributionGreat place! Whether you're a skater, scooter guy or biker, there is fun guaranteed!
Highly recommended stopping by and having a chat with the staff members, if you need advice they're always keen to help. Inside the establishment they have a selection scooter/skate/bmx spares you can buy too.Written 11 September 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - kensmoonLincoln, UK988 contributionsWe enjoyed a walk through the park and were surprised to see two herons perched on high branches in one of the trees. There is a good variety of trees and apparently in Autumn the maples add a welcome splash of colour to the canvas.Written 3 September 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- deirodeirBangor, UK147 contributionsThis is part of a coastal walk from Donaghadee to Holywood, and is usually called just the Coastal Path by locals. Beautiful views of Belfast Lough, looking across to the Antrim Hills, from the undulating paved path. Popular with walkers (with and without dogs) and joggers, and some cyclists, the latter on mountain bikes who frequently treat it as a race course. Incredibly, there are plans to widen the path and encourage cycling, so make the most of the pleasnt path as it is now, in case this error of judgement comes to pass.Written 7 November 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Ade TBelfast, UK8 contributionsA splendid house with a museum on local history and a cool coffee shop. Take a walk through the park to the walked gardens.Written 7 March 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Luc A7 contributionsThis is a really lovely library and gives quite a different feel to what most libraries are like. A really accessible place for all and some excellent book choices for all. Not to mention its based in a really nice setting.Written 15 August 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
