“Fantastic playground facilities with enclosed dog park. Like others have mentioned I can imagine it being crowded and needs more shaded cover and seats. Nit picking here but noticed some rubbish drink bottles etc. Please clean after yourself. Sand pit, mulch, smooth rocks needs maintenance and topping up otherwise well thought after playground park.”

“Great playground, very spacious, some under cover areas- good for rainy and cold days. Public Toilets here too. Shade sails over the swings are great for blocking the sun. There are slides, swings, a big treehouse type play area, a flying dox, sand area and little play houses for pretend play, as well. 5/5!”
