My son recently became part of the Miniature Railway Crew. This park attracts people of all ages. Lovely walks, great play areas and an outdoor gym. Picnic tables, tennis courts and beautiful gardens. There is no cafe there but there is a petrol station which sells food, drinks and ices, are pricey though. I'd recommend bringing a picnic if you intend to spend a few hours in the park. There is also a lovely public house across the road and also a golf course next door to the park. The Miniature Railway opens from 1pm on a Sunday until 4pm during the summer. It may not open if the weather is bad. Look on line for information...a lovely park to be explored for everybody.
