What visitors say
Chelmer Park is a big place for anything. At first, it looks like a perfect place for casual sporting, like big areas for soccer & baseball. We also have a place for tennis & netball (which sometimes messy but the turf is so neat). Another neat things is the playground which never feels old & is very popular that I could always catch children being there. You can also enter it via the big slide. Of course, it is so spacey, you can do anything like walk around & take dogs on a walk. The worst part is the toilets in the building. They seemed to so abandoned, only 2 unclean metallic rooms, just 1 tap without soap or anything to dry your hands with. Extra, there is also a park gym. It is a nice park to go to, unless you are needy for the bath.

Loads of green space, seems popular with dog walkers. I was there with my son for the playground! As well as regular play equipment, there's a hill which has a long metal slides as well as two windy yellow slides which are worth a visit!
