What people say
A very elegant park located alongside the main road, yet shielded by shrubbery. Play area, picnic shelters and open space, along with toilets.
Great quite park, surrounded by nice homes, quite and plenty of benches to sit at and 1 bbq. My 1 yr old had a ball running around. Street parking but easy to get.
It has nice amenities and seating area under the covered area. It has BBQ options too and it has lots of nice fun equipments for the little ones.
I go here often and I find it a nice cute little hang out place. It is good if you want to do homework here or have a picnic lots of shade. Totally recommend it! There is even some gym equipment if your interested in that. Some grass for rugby and so on. In general I totally recommend
My kids had a lot of fun. We love going to different parks each time. Great for a picnic, lunch and play for the little ones.
