We love it. So many bits of the park you can visit just on their own. Young children's play area, sand pit, duck pond, big lawns of grass, foujtains, streams, vafe, toilets, baby change, sensory garden, blackberry picking in the autumn. Such a wonderful place. I'm glad my child can grow up going to this park!

It was lovely to visit this little gem again. What a wonderful welcome there is here always! The garden was in bloom in February with many snowdrops, hellebores and daffodils. There are many quirky spots like the Bowes railway garden and the pirate garden, and the topiary is worth a look. The gentle slopes are good for anyone with restricted mobility. There’s been a lot of work done to make the garden friendly to wildlife. The café has a small but good menu and the staff are friendly.
