This 58-acre park features a large pond, walking trails, a playground, and a variety of flora and fauna. Visitors can enjoy a leisurely stroll, have a picnic, or take part in water sports on the pond. The park is also home to a miniature railway, a boating lake, and a café serving refreshments.
A beautifully laid out scenic park with several Attractions. Miniature railway.Pond with paddle boats, putting green, victorian bandstand and Barrie Shelter cafe.Great for children. Good parking. Only 30 mins from Glasgow. Great short travel day out.
I love strathaven Park, but I was so sad to hear that the council no longer has anything to do with it. There are some gorgeous apple trees up the top, and there were some raised beds that are full of weeds. They've just abandoned them. I will definitely need to go back and do some weeding. Real shame.
Really lovely park with lots of different play areas for very young children upto teenagers. Has a great little pond with some ducks. We took our puppy and were pleased to see loads of very friendly dogs on our walk. Nice wee sculptures and areas to explore. It has a cafe but it was closed when we visited. Would definitely go back for another visit.
Lovely park with lots to do. Good play spaces for the wee ones, younger and older. Lots of friendly dogs around. A real community hub for local dog owners. Activities are great and not overpriced. That's to the wee cafe for keeping them going. And the local miniature railway is just lovely. Friendly volunteers and a great wee ride for children and the grown ups.
Just like the way it should be. Lots of engaging activities. We travelled during the balloon festival and thus the park was jam-packed but well organized. The mini railway stole the show for most of us.
A lovely park with lots of young and senior aged children's play areas. There is also a cafe, boating pond and miniature railway (run by volunteers at weekends and bank holidays). It is a shame that the local council is withdrawing funding for certain areas and you can already see where lack of care due to cost cutting is impacting. Nevertheless a lovely couple of hours can be spent here with children in a safe and very pretty parkland location. There is also a hot air balloon festival once a year, so check online for the dates.
