Oh this place is so special to me. Farley Hill National park is a hidden gem in Barbados, one of my favourite places in the world. It does, however, need some TLC, some investment in renovating and bringing it back to its glory. The park features a lovely ‘view point’ and a gazebo at the top, flanked by wonderful shady trees. It also has restroom facilities and a lovely kids park for all ages (be careful, however, some of the toys can be dangerous as they’re in dire need of replacement/fixing) It has lovely areas for walking and the grounds are pretty well maintained. The mansion at the heart of the park is an incredible feature, and is shouting out for restoration. The entry fee is $6 per car. We use this park as a place of peace, quiet, solace and seclusion- it is never busy, always wonderful.

Highly recommended, although in dire need of love and affection- I hope an initiative to raise funds to restore it will be raised soon as I would love...

It's the best public park in Barbados. The children's playground area is no way comparable to what you see in Canada or the state's, but there are monkey bars, swings, see saws, play structures just all are old. What is beautiful are the surroundings. You can go for a walk into the forest or go and look at the old plantation house. There is also a great lookout from the Gazebo where you see a large swath of Barbados. You have to pay 6 Barbados dollars for a car to enter - can have as many people as you want in the car. Also the parking lot is quite large and it is a great place for 2-10 year olds to bike around in circles and even along the road to the plantation house. With all the trees and the location the weather is never boiling hot there so it is one place in Barbados to cool off to 25...
