Beautiful. Nice afternoon adventure to see Waltham Abbey and Gardens. Not very busy. Decent parking.
We had a nice but brief walk around the Abbey and gardens. There is a lot of interesting history surrounding the Abbey, which you can read about as you walk. We will definitely visit again in the summer to take a longer walk.
Peaceful and well maintained gardens to the Abbey. Popular with dog walkers! Could do with some litter bins for general waste as you'll often see rubbish left around. Plenty of car parking but beware, you'll need to pay.
Free parking outside on Crooked Mile.
Green and peaceful oasis in the middle of town. Car park very reasonable - PS1 for 1 hr and PS2 for 24 hrs. In summer rose garden must be beautiful, but even in winter dullness was refreshing to walk around and enjoy greenery and wildlife.
Brilliant park... You can see the changing seasons. My dogs and me love this place.
