Little Wanders’ verdict

Last visited September 2026

“Our toddler loves the huge sandpit (even if we don't!)”

Best for

Mid-week playdates, when it's nice and quiet.

Worth knowing

Only two baby swings, and sunny weekends can get very busy!

Good to know

Our observations

Buggy access
Step-free access in and plenty of space for buggies
Baby changing
Baby change in Sainsbury's across the road.
Something to do
Lots to do. Big playground, huge sandpit, and water play when the sun's out.
Timing tip
Summer's the best, the sandpit gets water play and the paddling area opens up. Quieter in the mornings before the school-run crowd.
