I visited the park for the first time at the weekend and it is ace. I can't believe how big it is. The grandkids had a whale of a time and I am definitely taking my mum there next time she visits.

A jewell in the crown of DDC .My back garden Yet I cannot get money spent on it .The lake walls need refurbishing .
It is very beautiful, and well worth investing in. I can only get there infrequently, and each time I visit I am startled anew by the calm beauty of the place.

I spent most of my childhood in Kearsney Abbey (well, we did have a house to live in as well, but you get my drift).
A truly magical place. I adore it.

Seems to me there were quite a few of us used to play there! We used to have wonderful adventures there - not in the more manicured areas, but across the river where it was more wild.

Spent the day there and Russell Gardens last week - took a whole load of photos which I am still sorting through - absolutely fantastic

I went there for a lovely ice cream last week and it was packed with lots of locals enjoying the scenery and sun

Sue you are right, the lake walls have needed doing for a few years now. What a wonderful place it is though, so pretty and natural. Spent many happy hours there in the past with my children and now my grandchildren.
There's always a little truth behind every "Just kidding", a little emotion behind every "I don't care" and a little pain behind every "I'm ok".

It was one of my haunts as a youngster too, along with Russel Gardens and Bushy Ruff.
