This 140-hectare country park in Greater Manchester features a mix of woodland, wetlands, and grasslands, with several walking trails, including the 12km Alver Valley Trail. The park is home to a variety of wildlife, including birds, bats, and insects, and offers scenic views of the surrounding countryside. Visitors can explore the park's many habitats, including ancient woodland, heathland, and wetlands, and enjoy activities such as birdwatching, cycling, and horse riding. The park also features several historic sites, including the remains of a medieval settlement and a 19th-century textile mill.
Had a lovely ,leisurely, peacefull walk through here,dog and her brothers and sisters had a little play in the water and loved it.
I love it here. We come regularly with the dogs. It's getting 4 stars as often the parking machines don't work so you have to pay online which is an extra 10p Also the parking went up from PS1 to PS1.60 per hour which is a huge increase.
This is a great place to take your kids, there is a variety of apparatus that will keep them busy for hours. The play area is separated for young and older kids. Not far from the play area is a cafe and toilets. Car park space is at the front of this park with limited spaces. Well worth a visit.
This is the best play park by far that our family went to. There are play grounds for young ones and adults too. So, all family can enjoy and have fun together. The toilet is explicitly clean. There are plenty of spaces for the car park too.
Lovely enclosed playground areas for all ages of children. Small coffee shop with outside seating serving drinks, hot snacks and cakes. Clean toilets close to cafe and play areas. Great for dogwalking. Small charge for parking by the hour.
Was a very cold day when we went. There was lots of equipment for the kids they also have a smaller park for the younger children. It's a shame the big slides are out of use that was the draw of the park for my son. All of the other equipment was open though. Was quite muddy but it's winter and that's expected. There is toilets near by, good size car park which you have to pay for. There is also a cafe kiosk with a tiny outdoor seating bit. There is also a good dog walking bit with lots of nature walks and ponds to see ducks.
