Quite a big park and lots and lots of walking involves. I think if you leave the farm and walk round the back somewhere there are fields of sheep, but due to no clear signs or anything we only found out about it once out of the park. The greenhouse is closed and did not see any cafes or other facilities in the park. After walking for miles saw some teeny tiny playground for the young ones. I find it a bit shocking to say the least for such a big park offering such a miniature kids playground. Did not see any picnic tables either. On a plus sign this park offers lots of space for dog walkers. And there is The Tollcross International Swimming Centre with free parking.

It's a great place to walk in my case ride my Scooter with my dog and playing retrieve The rose garden is always worth a visit in the summer. The down side is the closure of the Victorian Greenhouse and how it has been left to ruin. This has also meant that the cafe, creche and toilets are also closed. There is little sports facilities, a baseball pitch where once there was several football pitches. Also long gone are the public tennis courts, bowling greens and pitch and put. I am now revising my view because of the lack of facilities from four stars to three. But I still love Tollcross Park.

Largest park in Glasgow. Well maintained. Beautiful views. Great for summer picnics. To see the roses in June and July is a must. The most amazing display. Also, look at the new glasshouse which was fully restored in 2022. Now it needs plants inside! June 2024 and the roses ๐น are out and will be better in a couple of weeks. The new glasshouse is still empty ๐

Wee trip down memory lane for me taking my son to the animal zoo, haven't been to tollcross park for nearly 30 years, zoo is very small, but free. Had a walk around the park nothing much changed, the main path through the park was closed as was the 'hot house' as we used to call it. The park itself was immaculate and well looked after

This is a very nice park, I enjoy bringing my dog here for walks. Most people tend to walk dogs here, off the lead also so please be aware of this. There is a kids swing park at both ends of the park also, one near the lesuire centre. There is also a tonne of very beautiful rose bushes in the park that you can walk around to look at.
