Would recommend

*Would not recommend during the heat of a summer day, beautiful during mornings and afternoons or on cooler days!

Kids of all ages can get the most out of their playtime at this incredibly spacious playground. With its variety of play areas, it has something for everyone!

The play equipment is situated on a sand surface and surrounded by trees for ample shade and some areas have shade sail coverage, your kids will stay a little cool in the summer.

It's not just about the slides and swings either; this playground has its own amenities like bubblers, bins, BBQ areas with picnic tables, toilets, and car parking so you can extend your stay and event host parties.

Would recommend (not during the heat of a summer day) .
