    Shibden Park

    ★★★★☆ 4.6
    Open

    “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.”

    Manor Heath Park

    ★★★★☆ 4.5
    Open

    “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.”

    Shroggs Park

    ★★★★☆ 4.3
    Open

    “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.”

    Eureka! The National Children's Museum

    ★★★★☆ 4.5
    Closed

    “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”
