“Great park off the beaten track a bit, so limited road noise, but less than a minute to the motorway. Fully fenced, easily accessible from the road, and gran could even watch the family play from the car if he/she has mobility issues. A park bench is just inside the top gate, with more dotted around, as well as x2 sheltered picnic tables. Heaps of the nice grass for the kiddos too. Plenty of stuff for the kids to do. We'll come again :).”

“Hamlin Park is really a sports field and the hall is used for Sunday worship. I live only 5 mins.away and find it is a great place to take my Lassa Appso dog for a 20 minutes run. Lots of smells and almost totally fenced.Surrounded by trees and back gardens . Excellent parking. No public toilets or playground but if you want to sit on a grassy slope in a quiet place for a little while this is for you.”
