Absolutely stunning place for a summer time stroll. Didn't have kids with us but lots of fun play areas that they would have enjoyed.

Great park for the kids. The addition of the new skate park is cool. Love the boardwalk through the trees. My son loves fishing for tadpoles at the pond in spring (always put back in the pond afterwards when we leave). And we really enjoy the concerts at the amphitheatre. We regularly walk or cycle to this park via the lovely Millennium route.

The only let down is the public toilets - filthy and dangerous as they're often used by 'undesirables' doing drugs (and other things!) in there.

This is a nice park. It has a lovely kiddies play area and a covered band area. There isn't really any parking in the park but there is plenty near by (not free I'm afraid). There are toilets at the main entrance to the park but nowhere else. Also no cafe or refreshments at all. Perfect place for events such as open-air cinema and local fates

I don't think we walked round the whole place. No parking available so find somewhere around the area. Plenty of access to and from Maidstone centre. The park is situated right next to Maidstone West station. A pleaant place to spend an hour in the sun with a busy river Medway running parallel with the park. We loved the little park, with the swings and sand for the little ones. Didn't see the Bigger park lol.

One of my favourite parks in Maidstone. Usually fairly quite as you can’t really park nearby. Has a good range of activities for children such as the Jolly Roger play area for younger children, a larger playground at the back with a skate park and the tree top walk way. The toilets are by the fitness centre entrance so is a bit of a pain to walk to when the kids want to go whilst playing at the playground. The nearest cafe is the one in the fitness centre. I also really enjoy the events that take place here such as proms in the park.

Nice little walk, skate Park is fairly decent and quiet too , not used to its full potential though ,the council should use it a lot more for summer events

A wonderful park, although it does get a bit muddy when it rains.
