Community green space with a lake, cafe, crazy golf, swimming pool, tennis courts & skate park.
Good park to have so near to a town centre. Absolutely full of dogs (and their associated walkers), including some pretty cool mixed breeds. Pretty good for a jog. Lake is the key point, full of ducks and geese and moorhens and spooky cormorants doing their thing. Most notable thing is the fact that you can buy bird feed with a credit cards and a automated kiosk... best way to while away the time while everyone's arguing over how long to cook a turkey!
I took the kids (3 and 1) to the playground by the cafe in the park and loved it. Lots of play equipment. Really clean and well maintained. The playground is gated with 2 entrances. There is a car park right next to it and the cafe is less than 2 min walk (unfortunately it was closed yesterday so didn't go in) would definitely come again
Overall lovely place to visit. The cafe does not cater for people with allergies even though they say allergy aware. Unfortunately we had to leave to find food for my son which spoilt the day out,
2024:regular walkers through park, new kids area is very popular, and despite my initial concern over money spent on skate park, I'm glad to say it's being used.. A lot 2021: Nice cafe,(when open) nice walk good park for kids and family's, but in these troubled times not one person in kids playground wore a mask(20+ adults) 2022: a beautiful January morning let's hope its a good one
Always enjoy visiting Lake Meadows. Free parking between 10am and 3pm. The cafe seems to open only in school holidays . Toilet facilities are always open, not the cleanest but fine for a park. The lake is beautiful, lots of wildlife. The gardens are always well maintained and there is a small trail through the woods. So something for everyone! Good playground too
Lovely park to wander around especially around the lake area. There are plenty of benches around all sides of the lake to sit down and watch the dukes or have lunch/snack over-looking the lake. Lots of paths to explore. Cafe, toilets and play-area not far from the Lake. We visited in May whilst on a long walk around the area and were delighted to find lots of baby ducks around the lake area - so cute. Well worth a visit as a couple or family.
