“Nice flat walk around a small reservoir. Toilets open all day until 6pm. Small visitor centre selling drinks and snacks also local maps. Lots of opportunity to extend your walk in all directions. Parking was £1 in an honesty box at the visitor centre.”

“Absolutely beautiful building with such a rich history. Most know that the most famous owner was Ann Lister but the building is very old and has some fabulous examples of medieval architecture. Well worth a visit a true gem. We did a guided tour which was so informative and the guides were brilliant. The grounds are immaculate and the park is full of things to do and see. If you haven't been to Shibden you are missing out.”

“I had some time to kill between the hotel kick out time and the event I was going to so I thought I would go exploring, with my camera in hand. What an absolute find Manor Heath Park was! Watching the wildlife playfully flitting about, seeing a wide array of fabulous doggos, and being surrounded by a plethora of beautiful flowers was just an ideal way to spend my Sunday morning. I can only imagine how beautiful it all looks when fully in bloom come spring time. I would highly recommend a visit if you're in the area.”

“Nice place for breakfast. Affordable prices, friendly staffs, good atmosphere.”

“Great local park. Walk through the park and up the hill by the dear park for a lovely peaceful woodland walk”

“A HIDDEN GEM! I use the park regularly for walking the dogs or taking the kids to play football and use the playground equipment. The park is home to a lovely woodland walk that provides great opportunities for nature photography. For the runners out there, the Parkrun is an absolutely fantastic event which takes place every Saturday morning attracting runners from far and wide. Enjoy orienteering? Well thanks to the East Pennine Orienteering Club, the park now has 3 virtual orienteering courses which can be accessed using the MapRun app on your mobile device. Various events held throughout the year such as the recent Halloween Trail which my family thoroughly enjoyed. The park has an active Friends of Group and a number of improvement works have already taken place following public consultation events and the formation of a development group made up of local services in Calderdale and North Halifax. These improvements include the restoration of the monument/fountain feature, resurfacing of the main paths within the park, a number of robust picnic benches being put in, larger waste bins, a volunteer bin with a code locked compartment which holds litter picking equipment for community volunteers to access. Overall I'd highly recommend a visit. It doesn't have the reputation of some of the better known parks in Calderdale but Shroggs really is a lovely little place, steeped in history and the perfect outdoor location to enjoy time with the family, or even some wind down time on your own with a stroll as I often do myself. My one real issue is down to a minority of irresponsible dog owners resulting in a ridiculous amount of dog muck which either myself or another parent has to remove from the main football pitch on a Sunday morning so the kids can enjoy their matches without the risk of sliding in it. Usually enough to fill a carrier bag.”

“Ogden Reservoir boasts stunning panoramic views, offering a peaceful escape for families, couples, or anyone seeking a scenic retreat. With ample parking available, you can easily enjoy the beauty of the reservoir. Whether you're looking for a relaxing stroll or a picnic with loved ones, Ogden Reservoir is a must-visit.”

“Nice park to go to. Has benches to sit on . Memorial to the fallen of the Boer war. Children's play area. And you can walk your dog here.”

“Phenomenal experience, so much fun only wish we took more people but will definitely be doing again”

“Really good space for our 2 rescue dogs to run and explore. They had lots of fun digging, snuffling and running around. I would definitely recommend and we'll be rebooking ☺️”

“Brilliant day, my Grandson loved the sandpit and the pizza in the restaurant was good, not frozen cardboard type that you get in a lot of kids meals. I guess it's quite expensive, but as we live locally we will use the unlimited additional twelve months access”

“Excellant supplier of roof trusses 5*”

“Am rating my visit 5* due to the fact, the staff was extremely welcoming & went above & beyond for mine & my friends children/new born babies. They literally couldn't do enough for us & we just want to say thank you sooo much. The food was absolutely delicious even the hot choc with cream & marshmallows. We got burgers/onion rings & the manager throw in extras for us. As we were leaving the kids got free gifts from staff. Would defo recommend & can't fault this place what so ever.”
