What visitors say
A truly beautiful place for a peaceful walk, Victoria Park has been transformed into a lovely place following the revitalisation project it went through. I walk here almost daily, being very fortunate to have it close to my home, and I cannot recommend it enough. Try to get out early morning too - wonderfully quiet with the loveliest people and pooches!

Very nice place but can be very crowded and dangerous at times. My friend and me got jumped here once. Great memories

What a beautiful park, and so lucky it's just behind us. In the morning, it's not so busy, perfect for mothers with babies. Update: This Park recently had a face-lift, there are more adequate stuff for under 2s, there is a sand pit, a small slide for babies and so much more. Toilets are super clean.

In 2023 Ashford Borough Council put a huge effort into significantly remodeling Victoria Park . We now have a variable height lake fed from the Great Stour river with a small viewing balcony and a twin plank zig zag bridge. Nearby is a fun and popular Asphalt bicycle pump track which is also great for scooters. There is a new entry point into the park behind the lake over a timber footbridge spanning the river from the new flats in Leacon Road. Throughout the park are many public Barbeque stations for "bring your own", together with special bins for "cool" ash and rubbish A wild life pond sits below the "Rockery" Sensory Gardens with winding paths and a few chairs. Nearby is the new exciting and fun children's play equipment area including a zip line and mini trampoline. Also, the new cafe is bright and modern serving delicious hot drinks as well as cold and treats. The area by the Hubert Fountain has been remodeled providing new neat access points to the area. All in all, it's a really good and clever update to our local park. Well done!!
