Walking Paths & Accessibility
Pros:
"Good walking different routes to take, nice views and plenty of ducks for company."
"Most beautiful park you will find within Wales & I've been to plenty."
"Brilliant place to go and walk with an older dog as it's nice and flat, so be good for people in wheelchairs, prams etc."
"Fantastic park brilliant for wheelchairs and pushchairs also good for those that want to walk on the flat not too strenuous."
"Lovely walk around the lake with wide paths and wheelchair friendly."
"All paths are flat so wheelchair users can enjoy too."
"The pathway is pretty flat and even so great for wheelchairs/pushchairs and bikes."
Cons:
"The paths can get very dirty with geese dropping everywhere and doesn't get cleaned very often which is a shame."
"The amount of goose poo about is horrific, you can't walk 10 steps without stepping in some."
"Shame about all the duck poo on the route though but I suppose can't be helped unless paying someone to wash it all off daily."
"The only down side is the amount of excrement from the hundreds of geese alongside the lake"
"Dog walking is only by leash which is acceptable but there is nowhere to let a dog run free which is a shame."
"The site can be very boggy, it just needs some drainage to solve the problem."
"Was a bit disappointed we couldn't hire a go kart though, the website didn't state it was prebook only."

"Cafeteria providing hot and cold drinks as well as snacks!!"
Cons:
"Cafe is OK, but could be ran better, long ques sometimes, slow to serve, food presentation isn't the best."
"The cafe was not so good."
"The cafe opening hours are short and is closed by 18:00 in the summer which seems a bit mad."
"Prices in cafe are very high and service was terrible."
"The food was substandard and over priced and the seating area was not the cleanest."
"But when it came to getting a coffee from the cafe. SHOCKING..!!! Not very good service at all."
"The only part I think needs improving is the cafe."
Wildlife & Nature
Pros:

"Visited today but soon left due to the disgraceful state of the place. Goose droppings everywhere!!!!."
"The geese I found to be a bit of a nuisance."
"However lately it is over run with people."
"Far to many people about this 2 meter distance just doesn't work!! People on bikes people jogging!!. The park was full!.. considering this virus is about.there are no rules.noone wearing 😷...we went for a quiet walk around and it was totally packed and only one bin around!🤔"
"Park was absolutely packed, So packed we walked kids around lake and went home."
"The only bad thing was the toilets which are disgusting; partly down to the public being morons and partly down to lack of maintenance."

"The park itself for the children is brilliant, plenty of wildlife around the lake."
Cons:
"Absolutely shocking course!! Greens are the worst I have ever seen.. we thought we would give this course a try as it close to home but will never play here again."
"The playground is great for all ages but there's not enough seating there."
"The children's park could do with a bit of a refurbishment and maybe themed to attract the general public."
"I must say some of the park equipment is high and my child fell through a hole but luckily the top nets slowed the fall."
"Was a little disappointed with this. Thought that the park would be more exciting and more Woodley."
"I wouldn't advice her age to go on the big climbing frame alone."
"Lovely place to visit, the park is good except the tube slide which is not built right cos my one boy hurt his back in there and the other got his leg caught."
