Traveler reviews
Jordan Dunn
★★★★★3 years agoLovely dog park! All the dogs love playing here. There's no picnic area so avoid bringing food unless you want the doggos taking it... Then again only an absolute fool would picnic on grass where dogs are playing. There's a sports centre with gym swimming and other sports There's tennis courts and tennis centre opposite is a stadium with running track and other track and field sports. There's also a part for football in the closed off cages on the 4G pitches. Also a little playground area too massive but ideal for kids. Great local park. 👍🏻
