A bit busy at times but still worth a visit - big open space, dog walking , coffee van , cafe,wildlife bird life lakes ,mud &fields
The playground is great for kids. It's not getting the full 5 stars as it can get very uddy and full of puddles, even at the height of summer.
The rest of the park is great for walks, there are toilet facilities and a café.

Wonderful park. Large and open, even on busy days you can walk for a while without encountering anyone else. Beautiful bird ponds and a great view of Penshaw Monument.
Loverly place for either a coffee and watch the world go by or a nice walk walking round the lake is full of wildlife and a nice trek or for longer walks theres many a different route

Overlooked by the very scenic Penshaw Monument this is a great place to get out for a walk with family or pets..
Lovely footpaths, ponds, nature and wildlife to keep your eyes entertained along the way. A cafe is on site for snacks and meals and an ice cream van is also here in sunny days...
A must see 👀 👌🏴

Large country park with great paths ideal for prams and wheelchairs etc. Large lake with smaller water like fishing lake and lily ponds. The park has a amphitheatre in the middle also cafe and toilets 🚻 on site. Great sculptures are the park aswell as a miners memorial garden. A must visit while at penshaw monument.
Lovely place for a walk with the dogs, and the other half. Free parking, and although car parks were busy, you don't see many people because of the sheer size of the place. Quite a flat walk, but nearly managed to walk 6 miles.
Will be back again to have a venture up to Penshaw monument.
Dropped a star, as there's plenty of bins, so why do dog walkers pick up their poos and dump them??? Shame the amount of full dog poo bags around the place, no need for it.

This country park is fantastic. So much space and so much to see. The views from different parts of the park are amazing. There is plenty of free parking and a huge kids play area. We spent 2 hours here and could easily have spent longer
