First time visiting, and very impressed. Great views from the viewing points. Had a lovely walk with a friend then a very reasonable egg on toast ín the cafe 1899. Will be back with my family.
The park is now 10 years old and is maturing nicely. There are still great views from several points around the park with info boards at specific view points.
Great park popular area for family's yes there's is a café and tiolets Also a £2 parking fee but worth every penny. They have designed this park for long walks or short, depending on your mobility. You don't be disappointed
Had an amazing day here today on 6th April 2025. Picked a great day to visit as it's the warmest day of the year so far. From 1899 to 1991 this site was Gedling Colliery. In 2014 work began to transform this landscape into Gedling Country Park. I came here a few years back, and it's amazing how much it's matured in that time. It's hard to believe that this is just a short distance from the city of Nottingham. There's some absolutely stunning views here. Highly recommend
Amazing park with some stunning views of gedling and some great wildlife quite of a big park with two nice ponds and some wooded areas also a play park for children. And a holocaust memorial in the middle of the park. I would definitely recommend coming to this park as you wouldn't be disappointed
Lovely place to visit with several walking routes, it has lovely views in all directions and if you’re lucky you might see a deer as we did last week. The 1899 Cafe serves a good cappuccino and has lots of cakes and snacks to enjoy. The staff are also very nice. There is a Children’s play area and a small sand pit for the kids. Car parking is also very good.
A former coal mining site turned into a really beautiful park and urban green space. Developed over a number of years it has now got a super children's playground catering for children of all ages. A cafe which provides food and drink and is well stocked. There are tree trails and sculptures. Paths are well maintained and offer a variety of different lengths of walks. There's also now plenty of parking spaces with a top and bottom car park which has CCTV cameras for security.
Lovely place for a dog walk, with 4 easy to follow marked routes to choose from based on length and difficulty. Top carpark was very busy but plenty of space at the bottom. Great views and some nice carvings and art pieces to look at on the way round. Nice to see wheelchair accessible benches. Play area looked very busy and we gave up on getting a snack/drink as the queue was long and moving very very slowly. Suggest you take a picnic. Car park runs on a donation system.
Good choice of paths, lovely place to walk and great park for the kids. Also a nice little walk for children with wooden animal sculptures, and there's a booklet for 20p outside the cafe to do rubbings of the different animals as you go round, but we went on a wet day so couldn't do it. Theres a nice little cafe, public toilets and the car park is free or £1 donation.
