Lido Park Playground

Perfect for a morning out with toddlers and little ones — the play equipment is kept in genuinely good nick, which isn’t something you can say about every park in the area. There’s a slide that younger kids love, and because it’s set within Lido Park itself, you’ve got the lake nearby and plenty of room to wander the walking path once they’ve burned off some energy. The café is a proper bonus, not just a van in a car park, so you can actually sit down with a decent coffee. Parking makes the whole thing easy, and honestly it’s one of those places where you can string together a proper little outing rather than just a quick play and leave.
