[Rose Simn](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/113196983815483019467/reviews) ★★★★★

We absolutely love Highfields Park — it’s one of our favourite places to spend time. Great for meeting friends or just enjoying a relaxed day out with family. There’s a lovely play area for kids, and the café is perfect for a quick coffee. The lake is beautiful — you can feed the ducks and geese, and there are swans too, which makes it feel really special. It’s also really nice that you can go boating on the lake, which the kids always enjoy. The park itself is well kept, spacious and just has a really calm, pleasant atmosphere. We always have a great time here.

Lovely place for a walk. Lovely lake, grounds and stepping stones for example. Lovely and quiet to take a stroll and watch the birds, or just sit and enjoy the view. Very pleasant.

Lovely picturesque park, has a cafe, toilets, crazy golf, row boat hire, play ground and a circular walking route around the lake. Parking is expensive.
