Lovely park, and great for children. If you're looking for something cheap, then this is a good contender. The area has a wonderful free playground, with sections for different age ranges. There is also a sandpit and wooded area too. It has a nice circular loop which the kids can cycle, round but unfortunately the train was out of action. The parking is quite expensive but I can look past this as it is a nice area. Obviously avoid the paid for attractions and ice cream vans to keep costs down 🤣

Lots of activities for children and adults; large areas of woodland and the nearby canal to explore. Adequate parking available at £3.50 for a stay over 90 minutes. Disappointed with the courtyard cafe which had limited availability of food choices at quite expensive prices. Unfortunately the hotel and spa appear to have been closed for some time.

Never been here before was quite impressed with what they have here. There was an artisan market on which was quite good, we bought some goodies. They have a crazy golf which is only a pound each to play. It's has 18 holes which was quite good and passed some time. They also have an adventure golf aswell which is 18 holes and was very good, it cost about £19 for 2 adults and 2 children. There's plenty here to do, an adventure playground for the kids old and young, a food court with a coffee shop, pizzeria, a bar also a farm shop. There are woodland walks. We arrived about 12.30 and left about 5pm. Car park costs £4 if you stay over a hour and a half.

A real asset to the area. The park seemed targeted to families, with a large playground, crazy golf and fun fair, rather than relaxing gardens, but the gravel garden was beautiful and the woods were extensive, so there was definitely something for everyone. It was nice to have a couple of cafes to choose from, and the courtyard eating/shopping area was nice. Reasonable parking costs, although I misunderstood and thought the reduced price was for 2 hours total, not 90 mins.
