Rawcliffe Park Playground

The climbing boulder is genuinely the star here — it’s big, it’s chunky, and kids absolutely go for it from the moment they arrive. Everything’s fenced in, which makes a real difference if you’ve got younger ones who like to wander, and the open grass field gives older kids room to actually run around. It’s right near the forest trails too, so you can easily tack on a proper walk before or after. Benches and parking are sorted, and the 2–12 age range feels accurate — there’s enough variety that nobody gets bored too quickly.
