Sandwell Valley Country Park is a lovely place to visit, especially when the weather is nice. There’s plenty of open space for walking, relaxing and spending time with family. The park is well maintained and has some really nice views and walking trails. It’s also a great place to bring kids as there’s lots of space for them to explore and enjoy the outdoors. It can get quite busy on weekends, but overall it’s a peaceful and enjoyable place to spend a few hours. Definitely one of the nicest outdoor places in the Sandwell area. Would happily visit again!

I've been to West Brom quite a few times and never knew this park was hidden here. It's a pretty big area too, so I was really surprised by it. Parking is pretty cheap, you can pay by coins or through an app and there's lots to do for kids of different ages. There's a couple of playgrounds and a huge GoApe style course too that you have to book. Also, a very basic small fair with a food truck was set up too. You can hire bikes too. There's a couple of lakes too, we find the smaller one at the top was really peaceful. The green at the top end was clean, spacious and lovely to walk around too. Unfortunately, the farm didn't have very much to offer as all the animals were moved out during covid and there's not really a lot to do over that way besides a small coffee shop that's a bit hidden and out the way. Good spot to go with family and children though

Great parks and pathways, some bits missing/ need replacing but suitable for all ages. Water area looks a bit derelict but could be cleaned up for the summer. Lovely pond, currently no swan boats like there used to be. Fayre is good but can be a little expensive and the grabbers rarely work. Even during busy times there’s still plenty of space to move around with large grass fields. Also great for walking pets, bike riding, picnics and so on. There’s food/ drink and ice cream vans but there’s currently no toilets as they’re out of order. Parking can get busy but there’s currently is an overflow car park.
