For some reason, the two swimming pools are in stark contrast. The main olympic-sized pool is pristine, while the smaller pool is dark green from algal bloom.
Excellent bathroom amenities and great kids equipment like water play (bring swimmers) and playground. It could do with some shade over the playground as the equipment gets quite hot in the sun. Otherwise it’s lovely and fun to be here!
This park has everything! Three different play areas for all ages, picnic tables and a shelter, toilets, a duck pond, the pool, and let’s not forget the rocket. Seasonal colour in the Rhododendrons and autumn leaves too as a bonus.
This park embodies old skool cool. The kids absolutely love running between the three play areas- it really wears them out ☺️ There are also a set of swings by the small lake. There are large open spaces for picnics, picnic benches, and few covered picnic areas, one which has a BBQ. Toilets available. The park is next to Blackheath pool which was empty- unsure if they are remodeling or it's closed. Not wheelchair or pram friendly.
Nice park with beautiful trees but not very well maintained. It needs lot of landscaping or at the very least proper footpaths. Not sure why they built disjointed playgrounds but at least they did something nice. The children's playground is great. There are a few sections with the old playground the new playground with wired sculpture that kids can climb on. And the new playground has a rocket with a slide as well and monkey Bars. The pool is at the end of the park and looks just wonderful. There are a few benches to sit on and tables in the shade for lunch. This makes a nice walk and if you have kids or dogs a well worth visit. But please upgrade it so everyone can enjoy it - e.g pensioners
