★★★★★Featured review by Lu Liu

A great fully enclosed playground. Suitable for children of all ages. The big banyan tree inside is a feature. There are also two barbecue halls. It's very suitable for family to play here. There are lights at night.

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with children aged 1.5-10 wanting a contained outdoor session with cooking facilities. The dual BBQ areas and picnic space make it well-suited for group outings and casual parties. Bin chickens are persistent — keep food covered or packed away.

â„šī¸ What to Know Before You Go

⏰Two BBQ areas are available for family cooking — arrive early on weekends to secure a spot

“It's such a lovely place for the kids and even adults to get together. Clean, quiet, and peaceful space, especially for families to have a picnic at the weekend. Highly recommended.”

“Awesome playground with good clean facilities. Gated area, with tables and 2 BBQ areas. Downside, HEAPS of rats. Saw so many during daylight, and they were everywhere once the sun set. Also a massive tree branch fell down while we were there, Scary to think we were just underneath and so could other people! Dogs allowed on leash no more than 2m.”

“Excellent playground for ages 1.5 - 10. Nice and spread out, lots of space for picnics or parties. Fully fenced and toilets just outside the fenced area. Water play available, pathways suitable for scooters, plenty of shade too. Parking is on the main road.”
