If you love parks then elmdon park is a must place to visit as it's great for any age from toddlers to oap's theres something for everyone. It's a very large park, I'd say around 3-4 square miles. At the bottom you have lots of grassy areas, a great children's play area that's fenced in so no worries about them wandering off and it has a great selection of things to go on. There's a car park at the bottom and the top of the park but if these are full you can park along elmdon park road that runs alongside the bottom part. Also at the bottom there is a double tennis court, free on a first come first serve basis and a couple of football pitches where some Sunday's theres local league matches played here, theres a nice lake with plenty of hungry ducks to feed including magnificent swans, geese and a lot of others. Theres is a large wooded area at the bottom also but the right hand side of the park is fenced off as this is the jaguar/landrover plant. Theres a few walks around the park but when you get up to the top theres the old church St Nicholas's which in the spring and summer months opens Sunday afternoons and they serve hot and cold drinks and home baked cakes and other goodies all at a very reasonable price. There is also a huge nature reserve at the very top which is like a lost world with all kinds of things nature to do. So whether its snowing and you want great hills for sledging or the suns blazing this is a park that really does have it all and imho a must for any park lovers or just a great place for a family day out.
