Huge family park with woodland and riverside walking trails, colourful gardens, open parkland and a large children’s play park. Families can explore the famous International Rose Garden, wander through woodland and meadows, follow paths beside the river and enjoy plenty of space for picnics and outdoor play. With seasonal displays and events throughout the year, it’s a brilliant free spot for a longer family walk and play.
