Great splash park and super clean. It also feels very safe as the ground is soft. There’s a small cafe so you’ll need to bring a picnic for more options. Also limited shade and seating so be careful on hot sunny days
Visited on a summer Saturday afternoon. Most water activities were already closed for the day around 4pm. Overall it's a beautiful park with two lakes and a shallow river stream in between the two lakes. You can dip your feet in the water. Splash area is nice and has a lot of fountains but also can get very very busy.
Lovely park. Lots of parking spaces on a nice warm day. Lovely water park/play area for children. Snack stand with drinks and ice cream and 5 or 6 picnic tables. Nice bridge to walk over the river to the lake where there are pedalos and a lovely big walk around the lake. In an hour we had got less than half way taking a leisurely stroll and sitting on the park benches watching the wildlife. Great time here for all ages and the dogs loved the walk. Would definitely go here again and pay for longer on the parking ticket to walk the whole lake
What a lovely park. Visited midweek whilst the kids were at school, so there was plenty of available parking. The toilets were really clean. Walked around the boating lake, which was both peaceful and relaxing. Stopped off at the cafe for a bite to eat and a coffee. It was reasonably priced and quite tasty. There are lots for the kids to do. Home schoolers were paddle boarding during our visit, which looked great fun. Passed a water park as well. A few toddlers braved the nippy weather today. Overall, this is a beautifully kept park with many activities and one that I will certainly be visiting again.
The south lake at Stanborough Park is a great place for open water swimming. If you register and pay for a 50 minute session on the Better app (currently £7), you can submit your car’s registration plate at the water sports reception to get free parking in the car park. There are small lockers in reception for valuables which are free, free tea and coffee for those who have paid for a session, and the men’s changing rooms were clean with hot showers. Just before entry to the lake there was a member of staff there to provide information and guidance. The lake itself feels and tasted clean during my visit in September 2022. There was was a 400m buoy marked course with all swimmers asked to swim counter clockwise and a couple of staff members in kayaks for safety and course guidance whilst swimming. They do ask that you wear either a wet suit or tow float, as well as a brightly coloured swimming cap. The staff and other swimmers were all very friendly. If you’re wondering whether to give the open water swimming a try, don’t hesitate! I’ll definitely go back before the season comes to an end.
Great price, we arrived late and were still able to go on the water. Staff helpful and friendly. I was able to watch the older kids and keep younger ones occupied paddeling in the stream and looking at the ducklings. Lovely way to spend an afternoon. Coffee shop was great as it had a kiosk front so I could order without leaving the dog.
Amazing fun for kids. Also a good walk around the park. It's possible to walk from the canoe lake to the water sports area. Paid secure parking. Tendency to get crowded quite quickly but a brilliant atmosphere with a mix of different cultures. Highly recommended.
Great place for fishing and wildlife, lots of green space for children. Highly recommend
Great park to come for a run or do other sport activities. Or just to sunbathe.
