Country Park

 Self guided
The wide open spaces of our lawns give freedom to run and play games, but the park is also a great place to appreciate the changing seasons; a leaf-kicking autumn walk, a spring flower visit, frost on the leaves in winter or sitting in the shade of a tree in summer ...

We have a number of other resources to help you get the most from your visit.

We have a Games Box with a selection of toys for activity play - soft balls, bats, bean bags, cones, parachute etc. This is free but must be booked in advance of your visit.
