It's a nice big clean park that's looked after I nice doing a big walk around there on a sunny day
Pleasant park in the middle of Manchester. My little girl loved the playground, including the gym machines. There is plenty of open space to run about, too as well as football/basketball courts
Decades of Salford Council negligence and the rise of home deliveries has meant this rich man's garden (which at least used to have a mining museum with a mock mineshaft) is now a shadowy relic of its once grand former self.
Countless (198) trees, plenty of green grass, you are pretty much guaranteed solitude here because it's such a cultural and horticultural sick bin, nobody who isn't a dog wants to come near.
There are of course no toilets in the park, so feel free to urinate and defecate behind the bushes. That's if you need to, the nearest shop is half a mile away, so you're more likely to starve than you are to need a poop.
God bless parks though, even this one.

I use the Dog walking area in the middle, the old golf course, great place to let your dogs run off lead
Nice walk around the lake, plenty of swans ducks and other water birds to see on the water. You can wander on several paths ranging from flat to steep paths.
This place feels like such a gem. It’s so unexpected to see such a historic building right in the middle of modern housing. It probably takes about an hour to visit and look around everything but you could spend longer trying hats and helmets on and taking pictures at the dining table. Very helpful and friendly staff too
Absolutely stunning place. Gorgeous cafe with lovely cakes. 🤗😁🤗
Nice and quiet bit of green :)
We really enjoyed our visit here.
The hall had a lot of history & ghost stories.
The staff were great, and knew every question I asked about the hall.
There is a lovely cafe with cakes & well made drinks.
It is free but donations would be welcome.

One of the best parks in Salford, Manchester. its vibrant and you can take a walk in the Morning or late afternoon. You can bring your pets or kids and sit on the park benches. During sunny winter days you can see Squirrels and different birds all around the park.
During late evening you can enjoy the silence and get lost in your thoughts.
Best place to be all by yourself

As a free to visit historical house it was a good find and broke up our last day in Manchester. It isn’t a particularly big venue and you won’t be blown away but it’s historical attributes but it’s a nice visit and has great historical architecture.
It won’t take too long to go around the space. We were there for 20 minutes

One of my favourite parks, even in the winter. During the spring flower beds are planted and the trees are gorgeous. There’s a beautiful river streaming through that just adds to the calming atmosphere of the place.
Lovely park in Salford. Can see the sunset nicely and have great long walks. Nice playing courts for basketball.
Only downside is there are no lights for when it turns dark especially for winter times

Nice place for dog walking with good children's play equipment and cafe. Parking appears to be free and quite plentiful on weekdays. The paths are good, although the large one to towards Hulme road and back to Clifton road is a little difficult to navigate in parts and goes through private land. That said, the vast majority is lovely. The people around seem cheerful and friendly. There are currently graffalo sculptures. There are plenty of benches and the odd dog bin.
Great place for kids to play and learn.
Free entry, but donations are encouraged.

A diamond in the rough, what an amazing hidden gem.

Beautiful expense of flowers and ark. Child play area includes as well as a Riverside. River Orwell runs by this park so everything is there!!
Lovely place for a walk. Tons of space for children to walk and have fun looking at nature, there is also a playground you can stop at, at the beginning or end depending which route you take. The cafe is perfect for a nice takeaway drink to keep you warm as you walk or to treat yourself when you finish. They also provide plant milks, if you are vegan or dairy free. They usually have soya and /or oat in which I was happy to see. There is a toilet is located in the cafe.
A nice place for people to spend their leisure time and walk the dog there. A natural environment that allows us to take a fresh breath and refresh our mind. Love the animals that i encounter during the walk.
A great cheap day out. (Free if you walk there!)
Having lived next to Ordsall for a number of years, I felt the need to check it out. Between modern residential streets, Ordsall Hall sits with beautiful architecture and well kept gardens.
The staff are really friendly and there are a number of interactive elements for kids. We walked around the whole building in around half an hour. But we could have taken it even slower. With a rich history and some great stuff on display, I highly recommend you check it out.

Fantastic day out. The hall is free and the parking is 5.50 for up to 6 hours.
I took my 7 year old to see an outdoor theatre production of Hercules, it was amazing, we are definitely going to go and see an outdoor production there again. Great value for money. Having never been there before, I was really suprised at what we found. The staff who work there are friendly and very informative. The hall itself was great to look around with lots of trying on armour and traditional tudor dress. Outside the grounds are very well kept and we met a gardener who was really helpful with advice on growing sweetcorn and other veg. The cafe and gift shop are reasonably priced. They take card :) The toilets are plentiful and very clean. A great place to go and have a picnic weather (depending) there is also outdoor seating on a terrace,we took our own folding chairs. Fantastic gem of a place . A great day out!(

Nice green area surrounded by tall trees. Good for walking your dog.

Great place! Lovely for a family walk and so much to discover and explore. My 9 year old loved the playground and we liked learning about the old coal mine when we adventured into the woods. Good for younger ones too as there is a sculpture trail to follow around the water. Nice little cafe and toilets available in the carpark.
Lovely tranquil place for walks and picnics in Summer. Is designed to control flood water so during heavy rain the lower part to the upper part of the ground is 15 feet.
I stay near Ordsall Park , so this is my regular free time park for walking and to have a fresh breath.
Sprint and blossoms are the best times in the park.
You won't feel safe when it is dark in this park. Security is a concern here. Need to improve the night watch.

Buile Hill Park is a big park in Salford. It is closed to the A6 and M602 and provided several free paring spaces. There is a hall available to hire for events (not free). Tennis courts and children playgrounds are also available. Dogs are welcome as well. You will be able to watch brilliant fireworks in Bonfire Night.

Lovely park, paths and a fairy tale walk for the kids. The car park is also open until really late, possibly even through the night. The only downside is no public toilets once the cafe closes for the day.
A lovely walk with plenty to see and full of wild life. It has a big play area for kids and nice little cafe on site. While walking around the lake which is stunning there are also a lot of wood carvings.
Beautiful city centre park. Really well maintained, and playground for children. Also situated on the banks of the river Irwell. Also, near Salford Art gallery and museum.
I love this park. The play area for the children is so fun (and for us big kids called adults). It's so close to the Art gallery so both can be done in one day with is great. The flower beds are beautiful and it's a well kept park. It's also near the big head lol.
Love this park. Friendly atmosphere, all age ranges and a fave with dog owners. Trees are just beginning to wake up to spring!
Great area for wildlife and history. Generally quiet and plenty of space from open areas down by the river up to the wooded valley slopes.
It's a good park for walking, jogging,for picnicking and for playing football.greenery is very good here covered with lots of trees but only the draw back is for small kids the playing things are limited like slides,seasaw ,swing ,a climing cargo net and only a small moving car if the things are more than I think this park will be very good
Very beautiful park located opposite to Salford Museum and Art Gallery. There are plenty to tracks to walk, old trees, playground, bridge with view for the river. I seen Canadian gees there. Great place for walk alone or with dog, meeting and chatting with friends.
It a little known hidden gem 💎, plenty of parking, wooded and open fields or walk round the lake. Dog friendly and there is also a dog friendly cafe.
Nice little park in the heart of Manchester City. Quite crowded on a sunny day as it’s close to University. Perfect place to walk or chill near the lake or in garden. You’ll see people reading, playing, even doing barbecue . There’s a little playground for kids as well. Beautiful flower beds. Definitely recommend to anyone nearby!
A lovely park with plenty of flowers and trees easy to walking and jogging with friendly people around. Often see people playing football in the special Manchester United training programs for kids and adults. Always find families taking kids playing in the playground.
Wide refreshing garden, with kids area and gym equipments. Lovely for a quiet walk or setting down on a sunny day.
Great park for dog walking. So many dogs and huge open areas. Some enclosed to let them run free. Great group of people at the “golf park”. Got some lovely pictures from there. And great selection of sticks.
Wonderful park. Nice and clean. Should increase children's play stuffs for grownups.

Quiet place to observe wildlife, especially birds. Saw a pair of buzzards this mornng! Also, plenty of frog spawn, which is good because a heron probably killed this frog!
Great for a dog walk, bike ride or a run.
An amazing nature space, great for a walk or mountain biking
