Cliffe Park — Attraction in North East Derbyshire

Visited around 11:00am on a Thursday. The car park had plenty of space. It was a cold but sunny day however the ground was quite muddy around all the play areas which is likely the case at many other similar parks.

It's a shame kids have to be like that these days and it's not even worth the hassle trying to reason with them either, all they give back is attitude. Hopefully next time we visit they...
