Beautiful park with a vast range of trees, bushes and flowers. Great playing areas for the kids. I sat on a bench by the lake. A huge manmade lake which is stunning. This was enhanced by me having a cool drink from the cafe and watching the folk on Pedalos on the lake. I barely walked in much of the park due to my leg disability but it is such a stunning park and I will visit again when I'm next in Wales.

Amazing park. Has a massive kids playground with the "huge slide" as my daughter called it, lots of fan for kids. The walk the lake is brilliant, we were able to see almost all the species they show on the info, apart from 3. Lots of parking around it and easy enough to get. This will be a place to to return multi times
