Great on a blue sky, sunny weather day. I dont know how the bouncy castle thing is there for, but the train should be running at least all Summer. Theres options for coffees, other drinks and ice creams and other food options. Recommend.

A Perfect Family Spot by the Sea. Located on the picturesque Hoe slopes to the right overlooking Plymouth Sound, West Hoe Park is a delightful spot for families with young children. The compact play area features climbing frames (my little daughters favourite), merry-go-round, swings and more, while larger green space offer seasonal fun with crazy golf, a bouncy castle, and miniature railway rides (admission fee applies). Ocean City Coffee & Ice Cream shop is conveniently located at this park, making it an ideal spot for parents to relax and unwind while enjoying stunning sea views. For energetic little players, there are also tennis courts—my daughter absolutely loves tennis! The park provides public toilet facilities. Only a 4* due to seasonal fun however a charming stop for fresh air or picnics.

Visited here (01/06/24) Nice little park. It looked like a fair of some kind was ready to take place. Looks like a great place to take the kids. I visited the cafe next to it. Great prices and beautiful food. Cheap parking nearby too.

Great place to go with the kids. Gus honey bun train is fantastic for the little ones. This train is historical has been there for over 40 years. Also located in the park is an adventure playground. Tokens need to be purchased for most of the rides and the trampolines located with in it. Great field area for picnics and also has a cafe and ice cream stand near by.
