   We do love coming here. The woods are beautiful, peaceful yet simple as given by nature and different to other ones in York (somewhat more relaxing and catching ) Clean throughout and large enough for walk and to play. Feels safe to -in the day . Playground has plenty of shades and play equipments-although not many or newish (possibly due for update)but they are good enough for keeping kids busy.l I.e.zipline. To the front there is also a basketball area and other play equipment just opposite. A football area to the main playground . Benches and beautiful flowers . .Parking spaces all around the park -to the entrances . There are toilets (which unfortunately isn't very nice/hygienic) and a small 'cafe shop 'with drink,snacks etc at a very good prices ( hygiene I'm not too.sure of) In overall ,a pleasant place to go.

   What a great surprise it was finding a windmill on a day trip out. Will be going back when it's open to visit ☺️ The park has plenty to see and lots of seating areas for picnics in the summer months. Victoria is looking at a bit worse for were, though .

   A lovely park with lots of interesting pathways. Great for dogs too. Super colours in autumn and the walkway would be awesome in summer as it is covered in Wisteria

   A gorgeous oasis but not just a council park. Once a garden for a mansion it's now a dog friendly place. Woodland areas, children play area, cafe bowls and shady spots. Lots of benches. Really well kept.

   A nice park, some great play things for the kids. The play park is in need of some repair with wooden poles for the kids to climb on rotten, to a point they move around. The zip wire is great fun, though!! The rest of the park is good, but the cafe only has 2 stars for hygiene.

   This is a really lovely park. It has everything you need and is a really enjoyable, attractive, safe space.. It is a really big park and has 3 (I think) entrances/exits, all into the same space. It's been designed really well so that some of the open space has been split off with tall trees. There's loads of open grass for playing or picknicking and some goals have been placed in one area, for football. There's a more dense forest area. There's a lovely smaller square lawn area that is surrounded by really tall trees. There's a walkway through the middle that is covered in hanging foliage and flowers in the spring/summer. There are smaller, more private green areas split off, with benches. There's a small pond. There's a tennis/basketball court at one entrance. There's a playground at the other end with loads of equipment and a zip wire! There are 2 really well looked after bowling lawns and a clubhouse. There are toilets and a small cafe with a big noticeboard of events. Wednesday mornings (I think the 3rd of each month) is doggie Wednesday. There is a defibrillator on site. The park has won awards and there's no doubt it is loved and looked after. The beds are all planted really nicely. Thank you to all of the volunteers who maintain this beautiful space.

   Love this park. Best Park in York. The play park has a big choice of apparatus for all ages including a zip wire! The woodland walks and benches are all stunning it's like stepping into a scene from a tombraider movie ! And the cafe is so reasonable and friendly. The entire park is very well kept too. We've never seen any litter or dog foul in sight and we go about twice a week.
