Great day out with my grandson's. We went there for the Splash pool & picnic as the weather has been so hot. My grandson's loved it. Then we went on the padding boats, they chose the dragon one, again they enjoyed it. Then of to the playground, which is a good size and equipped well. Great place for all ages.

Such a beautiful park in the Southeast London. Ample activities to keep kids of all ages engaged for entire day - play zones, rides, splash pool (summers only), mini-train, sand pit, paddling pool and just pure old fun of running around. They have a very nice cafe with good options and ice cream shop and sweet shop. It exceeded all my expectations and I am kicking myself for not visiting this until now and I would definitely be visiting more often. And not to forget, it’s very well maintained and clean. Just amazing place to have fun or a relaxed day, loved it !!

It’s a lovely park, tucked away from the main road. If you have mobility issues, young children, or no car, it’s worth taking a cab or Uber, as it’s about a 20-minute walk from the nearest bus stop. There are plenty of play areas and activities for children, including rides, a lake with boat rides and ducks, a swimming area, lovely picnic spots, and scenic walking trails. There’s also a mini train that children can ride. You’ll also find places to eat and drink, plus lots of ice cream options. A lovely spot to enjoy some summer fun.
