    A very cozy and well-maintained park. You can tell that everything was created with love for this place. There are benches where you can sit back, enjoy the surroundings, and soak up the peace and quiet! I highly recommend visiting this place!

    Lovely park to stroll round. Beautiful mature trees. The lime trees had a glorious smell when I was there yesterday. I was starting a walk there for Dorothy house, but would definitely come back. Highly recommend a visit
