A lovely with plenty of amusements for the kids, aviaries, a serving drinks light snacks and meals. Live brass bands etc playing in the bandstand on Sunday afternoons in summer. Thoroughly recommended and it's free to enter. Absolutely brilliant. Always clean and tidy. With I mean it is. I kept clean and tidy plus usable at all times. The is split by a road but there is a crossing so it is very safe for your children and dogs and plenty of swings and climbing frames for the children and open space for the dogs to run around. Brilliant. A beautiful park, a few things to do in terms of activities and wonderful live music at the kiosk in the months. I wish it felt more safe in the afternoons and evenings. Went here for a and was supplied with entertainment in the form of an elvis inpersonator.Park was full of people,cafe busy and everyone was enjoying themselves Such a lovely green space! So much greenery and space to do whatever you'd like Lovely options Nice ponds around with wildlife The is also quite interesting The highlight though was the aviary! Such a hidden gem, there's peacocks and so many cool birds around Will be returning to this place big on one side there is two big ponds with swans and ducks between them is a small forest there is also large open areas near the entrance there is a and ie cream van on the other side of the road there is another with a and rose gardens and a very which sells food and drinks also sells toys for dogs and a very ie cream that your dog an eat Parking is always an issue with this location, however I wouldn't want less in order to create a car park. Very clean when I went, big area, lovely with toilets which was great! Beautiful with a lovely serving a variety of foods and beverages. They also had a fantastic of gorgeous birds to see amongst so many other areas to explore! A super family park, lots to do for all age groups. You can visit the local history museum, the aviary, ponds or safe area. There are a couple of outdoor table tennis tables. I used to come here a lot growing up. It's for children, has a large open with different equipment to suit younger and older kids, often has an ice cream van nearby too! There are several large ponds to wander around and watch the wildlife. The also contains a with toilets, exercise equipment, tennis courts, and a small aviary. For parking, the only option is road parking and it can often get very busy. Lots to do, Big for kids, Bird averys to down & a Beautiful and a programme of bands in their bandstand throughout the summer. Food and refreshments are also available in the café, fairly priced and the coffee is good 👍 It’s always a to go to, with a cafe, the bird cages, the playground and sports areas all available. The grounds are always kept neat and tidy and the is very to around. There are large areas of grass to sports on and there are bookable tennis courts. The playground is very large with a large variety of things to do. The pond is also very nice. Really park, big enough to have a walk, but not too big at the same time, making it suitable for all audiences. The has three lakes too with plenty of ducks, swans and other birds swimming around giving a countryside vibe even though it is inside the town. There is also a and a very interesting to visit nearby. I would recommend visiting it. We came here to kill a little time before heading to Riverside Hub. What a playground! So much to do! My were running all over and stressing me out with their climbing higher than my heart was comfortable with. very clean. lots of things to do in playgrounds very good around lake. birds are really to see. toilets are clean ice-cream from the van was a good price and delicious. parking is tricky on the road . We love Abington Park, in any weather it's such a place to go. There is so much to say about it... There are two main green spaces/ parks, both with full site maps at the main entrance points if you need to orientate yourself in the first few visits. I did recently notice a new sign for the run they've set up. The sign was located between the big pond and the football pitch on the path running juxtaposed to the path. The running route they've set up is for beginners through to experienced and there are new post markers installed around route (around the football pitch and mini forest) shown on the sign post for distance/route reminders, etc. We tend to our dog all over and meet with friends, letting the children explore the winding paths & through the trees. I've never seen so many squirrels in my life in one place, so that's always cute. The big pond is for wildlife and seeing different birds, we have seen Herons in the smaller pond too. The birds (ducks/geese/swans/Moorhens/seagulls/pigeons, etc) have all been fed too often, so they are really greedy and will approach if you stand still. The boating lake next to the big pond is if you have remote control boats. In the summer, it also has ride on mini boats and pedalos you have to pay to use. There tends to be a fair in near the area. And you will often see people gather here for parties with tents/pop up gazebos etc, dotted everywhere, so it's really family friendly, and most people you see will talk or smile. You will feel the community spirit for sure if you want to. The is for the kids. They've recently fixed some items (roundabout/landrover, etc) and built a new climbing frame for Littler Littles. Theres something for all ages here! In the warmer months there are usually 2 ice cream trucks parked near the traffic lights near the if in need of a yummy treat. Crossing over the traffic lights past the and ear the church, youll find the museum/band stand/cafe/toilets/bird walk. The is if you need a hot / cold drink or little ones fancy some ice cream in any weather - indoor & outdoor seating is available and they also have a lunch selection too. It's a little pricey for a quick bite, but it shouldn't put you off if you're not expecting to eat or drink there. The also sells balls/Frisbees/bubbles, etc, so if you're going for a spontaneous visit, it's very handy. Near the is the bird walk, which I think is open through the week, I know it's usually open until around 3 pm on Saturdays but not Sundays, I find. The is one place I keep meaning to explore but don't get around to doing, but that looks good. They often have events throughout the year advertised at the traffic light crossing between the two green spaces. There is sometimes a band playing on the band stand but mostly it's empty and the can go check it out. Over all its well maintained dog friendly with lots to do, something for everyone... you'll often see the ground people maintaining it, driving around doing what they do best.

The and the is very big, as it gets very busy sometimes especially during the spring and season and in the school holidays. I also like the as i like to buy flavoured ice cream and milkshake in the hot days. I like this little as it had a lot of benches to sit. Not too many dog walkers, so anyone scared of dogs can feel free. trees to protect you from the heat on a sunny day. A cafeteria that sells drinks and ice cream Lovely massive park,well worth a visit. I use the everyday of the year for exercise. And love it. And it has helped me so much with my mental health. The is a beautiful place and seeing it go through the seasons is glorious. It changes every day. It's kept beautiful by the hard working gardeners. Just wish the toilets were better but I understand why they aren't. Thankyou.
