Great, wild open space with lots of interesting trees and wild plants. Can get a bit muddy in places, but for those of us with dogs, there's a very handy bin at the only entrance so you can't miss it, and it's completely enclosed so very tricky for the pups to escape if they do like to roam a bit.
What a wonderfully generous legacy to leave to the people of Knaresborough! First visit this afternoon with my friend who suggested it for a dog walk. My spaniel Flynn, loved it and we met lots of spaniels and their owners. A delightful experience! We'll be back.
Wonderful place, great for a walk whatever the weather! A lot of benches throughout which is great when the weather is nice.
A fantastic place for dog walking since it has wall all around so you can walk with your fury friend off-leash with no danger. people are so friendly and there are plenty of parking space in the neighbourhood.
Love our park. Dogs can walk in safety as it's walled or fenced.Pity its spoilt by some people leaving dog poo.
Lovely place. Was bequeathed to the locality by the original owners and it's a real gem. We went to walk the dog but any sort of walking, nature watching or picnicking would be perfect.
