Nice place for a walk with our dogs. Took them there every morning as we were in the area visiting my Mum. Carpark is free and there is a childrens playground too. The inn on the loch is dog friendly although we didn't go inside. The only negatives is that there is a few joggers, they just appear from behind, one or two didn't like having to pass by the dogs, think they thought that dogs are in the way. Another thing that happened on our first morning of walking there was a dog off lead,came running down and attacked my 2 dogs which were both on leads. It was a pitbull type of dog,luckily both my dogs were unharmed but it was very frightening, alot of noise and yelping from my small cockapoo,my other dog fought back but it was an awful experience. So I advise dog walkers to be wary! On the whole though it is a pleasant walk.

Free parking and quite peaceful. Certain times of the day it is pushed with dog walkers so if you want a peaceful walk go early. Lots of wildfowl on the water and a nice place. There is a cafe at main entrance but didn't spot any public toilets.

Great park with good kids playground, suitable for all ages. Nice, large loch with ducks and swans. There's a large carpark but it does get busy when the weather is nice. A nice place to go for a walk. Wholly recommended if nearby.

What a beautiful place this was today, the sun shining, the parks were completely full, food vans packed. Had a bouncy castle out and crazy golf. The place was so clean and everyone was so friendly.
