Reviews of Sheldon Country Park

J. 1.

Took my granddaughter aged 5 and she loved it..Very wheelchair accessible..staff really friendly. Food and drink purchased in the cafe there was lovely and again brilliant staff. Nice selection of lovely animals. Park with slides etc outside the farm. All in all a lovely Sunday morning spent here. As a wheelchair user I would recommend.

C. A.

Nice open spaces. Free parking. Dogs loved it

S.

What a lovely day out with my grandson even though the weather was cold and started to snow heavily as we left. We ended up having our pic nic in the car 🚗

O.

Park with small farm. Animals at the farm are sweet and will approach to say hello. Public toilets within the farm, too. Mostly wheelchair accessible but may be bumpy in some parts for manual chairs. The park is connected to the canal and has a decent sized car park. There's a small playground for children.

Y. V.

A cute, little place to visit. If local, worth popping in. Not much to the park beyond a wide, open space really. The playground is fantastic and the farm is also super, small and cute. I wouldn't make a special journey here, but always enjoy my visits.

c. t.

Great 4 kids walks and see the farm animals

j. b.

Nice little park never knew it existed before. Its clean got 2 play areas for kids and few animals horses, cows, sheeps, shetland pony etc. It has free parking and entrance to park is free its the park ill be taking kids from now on.

R. h.

A great place to take the children Public toilets open and clean A few farm animals and plenty of space Hand wash everywhere ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

K. G.

Love it here as much as the children. Fantastic if you like aeroplanes. Also small farm that's free to see ducks chickens cows etc.

S. U.

Amazing views of aeroplane taking off. Good area for kids to observe and play. Highly recommended for family friends!

I. C.

Spacious and green； Good for walking, jogging, cyling, with dogs or children ... 🚶🏃🙎👼 👨‍👩‍👦‍👦 🐕

M. T.

Great people working at the farm, highly recommend going there on a family day. Alternatively, great place for work experience too if you would like to work with animals and learn life skills.

I. M.

Such a nice place!!! I went a few weeks ago in the evening, and although I didn’t get to see the ponies, I saw some aeroplanes flying and it was really nice! If you can go, you should go

L. A.

Visit farm, play ground and playing fields. Walk to the outskirts of airport watch planes land and take off plenty to explore. Great for excerising your dogs. Plenty of space to social distance.

S. A.

Nice quaint place. Nice atmosphere, free entry and parking. The ice cream is expensive though but that's how it goes in these places. Not too big and nice to spend an hour or so there. Good for kids. But no feeding the animals.

T. W.

A nice but cold and blustery afternoon in February. Farm and Play Area well attended for half-term Hols Thanks for a warm welcome in the shop/cafe as always Nice People 🎉🎉🎉

A. J.

Great place for aviation enthusiasts as you can walk to the end of the airport runway. Can be a messy after a heavy downpour as the paths get waterlogged and boggy so whellies might be needed

D. B.

This park has loads to offer and it pathways have been updated making it a far more pleasant walk. The park stetches out over 300 acres of land. The end near Marston Green train station has the end of the airport runway. There are plenty of benches for a picnic and woodland for kids to play in. You can also access the Coventry Road from here and there is a Harvester Pub if you fancy a quick drink or some food. The other end of the park is a children's play area which has recently been refurbished and a small farm park. The farm has a number of animals (its closed at the moment due to government restrictions) it has toilets and a cafe onsite. My daughter is in secondary school now and still loves a visit to the farm. The park sometimes holds Fun days when they run shows and have stalls but this hasn't happened in a few years. The car park has also recently been updated so there is ample parking for visitors.

K. S.

The odd mad one on a dirt bike can disturb your nice morning walk but this is few and far between. Mornings are plesant to walk around and many friendly locals to pass a morning greeting to. The playground is decent for the kids with the added bonus of a few animals in the farm part to keep the kids entertained. It's a bit of a gem in a working class area. Would recommend walking with a friend for safety.

C.

Smaller than expected (including the kids playground) with less animals than we were hoping for but perhaps we went at the wrong time. It was still a lively time feeding the cows grass!

S.

Love this space... I have a different walk each time... Love it when the Cows are out.. Lovely space and much bigger than first thought

C. T.

Great environment, open fields friendly staff but animals have, over the years, has declined.

A. E.

A lovely day out for me and my grandson. Beautiful clean park and the animals are so well looked after.

j. a.

Lovely in the day,farm is closed at the moment but cows,sheep and horses in the fields. I wouldn't go off the beaten track, have heard of people having phones and bags snatched. All animals out now, bird's have to be confined because of avion flu

N. Y.

Great park, amazing views of the runway Plenty of places to sit

M. H.

Amazing day out very well worth the visit. Highly recommended

N. J.

Lovely walk, nice children's play area, plenty of parking, can see Aeroplanes taking off and landing, met lovely people for a stop and brief chat while they were walking their dogs. All in all, a nice experience and will go again

D. M.

Great place for walking and plane spotting and a side order of a working farm

A. K.

Such a magical oasis, with everything you need, An amazing green space, Farm, animals, Playground that my daughter said wow so thats a great sign, Aeroplanes ✈ flying overhead, with the sound of the jets roaring to take off. Magical Coffee shop open on the farm during opening hours. Beautiful well cared area, with fantastic, busy staff. We cannot wait to visit again.

L. W.

Plenty of parking and great day out for the dogs or kids. There is a little play area for the children and a petting zoo. If you walk through the park you can see apart of the airport where you can see planes taking off and landing. There are always families there enjoying the view and having a picnic

G. S.

Great open space well kept. Very little litter. Good place to cycle.

F. A.

The best park to go if you are around here .

S. T.

Lovely place to walk with the family. Little farm area with horses, pigs, ducks and sheep which is great for the kids. Viewing area to watch plans take off and land is the highlight though. Just amazing to be so close to the runway.

A. A.

Great natural park with berry trees. Great place on berry harvesting period for children to eat and discover nature. There is no playground if children want usual fun.

J. R.

Lovely park, play area and small farm.

C. A.

Lovely free walk around to look at the pigs. Nice little coffee shop, outside seating only

C. S.

Nice park to go with your kids and family.

The Old Rectory Farm is a fully working farm. Animals at the farm include Jersey cattle, pigs, goats, ponies, ducks, chickens and geese. The best thing is farm is open to visitors every day throughout the year and admission is free.

V. G.

A nice park to walk in and sit and watch the planes.

R. I.

It is the ideal place for the family a children's play area farm cafe also ideal for plane spotters

B. M.

Excellent place to take children to see the animals in the farm and in the field next to the farmhouse. Great play ground and cafe.

P. K.

Lovely place to walk, take the dog, and be closer to nature

A. K.

Good place to exercise with the family. Balls, bikes, frisbies, walking etc all permitted. Airport viewing area is a great spot to watch planes landing or taking off (depending on wind direction).

C. W.

M. M.

V. R.

Amazing place. Large park. Ample car parking space. Children outdoor play area. Also near the airport and get to see the take off and sometimes landing. There is a farm with cows and cattle as well. Summer is the best time for picnic.

G. C.

Great for all the family Make sure to leave a donation to keep this wonderful place open

A. P.

Love walking around Sheldon Coundtry Park, also nice watching the Aeroplanes take off and landing.

U. P.

Not many animals to see but then again it is free. You can walk around the whole compound in 10/15mins. Nice play area. Not the biggest park

M. P.

Very nice, lovely walk through to marston green Could do with been more secure, with some kind of warden to keep things in order, keep undesirables out. Other than than very nice

M. F.

One can enjoy the planes landing and taking off. Decent location.

J. B.

Very good place to go ,great place for walks,

P. B.

Great place to take my grandchildren to see the animals there a bit expensive for the refreshments otherwise brilliant

A. G.

Get to see the plains taking off over your head leaving Birmingham airport

O. C.

fantastic. great facilities. found it better to take a day off during the weekdays rather than go on a busy weekend.

K. M.

Love this farm been going since I was a baby myself great for the kids to see animals and the country park area next door is fantastic for running about and playing games

J. J.

Lovely park in a location you wouldn't really expect. Farm on site too

V. R.

Open space has a few apparatus fir children. Digs will.love it there.

O. O. C.

Great little farm and play areas to keep the children occupied. Although due to covid not all animals are accessible which is understandable. Also the Birmingham airport viewing area is round the corner as well a great walk towards it as paths are available for all abilities. So you can chill out have a picnic and see the planes taking off and landing.

G. M.

Enjoyed our visit here. Many years since I have been. Very clean and tidy. Animals for my the children to see and okay area very popular

A. W.

Great to watch the planes taking off. Right on top of the runway.

M. A. S.

Nice place to visit with family!

A. S.

Lovely little place to take the grand children hopefully not in mateing season like I did had to explain a few things lol also good for a nice first date

L. E.

I do appreciate that we have such a lovely park to walk through so near, although I have noticed that some dog walkers are not cleaning up all the time which is a shame as it does spoil your walk which is the same as the people dropping litter.

S. M.

Great little farm to visit and play area nice picnic area to eat at and got to see lots of different animals

L. T.

Nice place for a walk and lunch in the cafe on site, park really good for kids, animals lovely , staff friendly, loads of space to play xx

b. D.

A really nice place to take the children . You can feed the farm animals and relax with a lovely drink in there shop. And it's free to visit. Recommended place to visit for a few hours out.

p. a.

Farm was closed there is a snack van there which served drinks food etc...you could see the cows and sheep plus a few horse's was a nice day some good swings etc for the kids nice and clean and free to park.ps good paths.

C. H.

Great to see the animals again and have a walk up to the flight path. Still not many planes though. Car park extension is good.

N. R. F.

Great place for all the family lots of walks

C. J.

Great place to walk through a good play area for the children on the farm there are cows, sheep, ponies for the children to see

B.

Lovely for children to spot the planes, visit the farm and play in the play area.

N. O.

Nice park... Few animals to see. Nice little playground and the airport is a short walk away (has viewing area). Free car park and café with toilets.

D.

This park could be truly beautiful but unfortunately humans like to destroy the beauty, rubbish everyone including river! More bins needed and proper deep cleaning by council as all I see it's people like me who comes with bin bags without proper equipment to clean as much as we can but this will never be enough

M. J.

Lovely peaceful place to walk with your 🐕

F. S.

i have enjoyed sitting by airport and lookingat airplane

J. W.

Good off road walking but no toilets. Good children's playground at the Country park farm which is open but the farm is not. There is a pop up for hot and cold drinks and ice cream

C. H.

Mini cafe is great. No farm open as yet. It was very quiet - only 1 plane took off while we were there. Guess that will soon change?

M. F.

Great place to chill with friends, walk the dog, see some animals but not all open yet. Grab a coffee from the carpark and enjoy the scenery.

S. M.

It's a nice place to walk away from the everyday hassle of the general public, without having to go to far, and not to far away from help, (if necessary).

C. L.

A lovely little day for families especially with younger members. Little playground, fields, animals, cafe, parking and loos. Plus its free

B. S.

A good place to take the little ones with a little playground and animals to see and then a big field there either for a walk or a picnic

p. j.

A very nice place to walk around

T. W.

Lovely day out at the park farm and watching the aeroplanes xx

F. H.

Nice place to enjoy with family. Kids will love the firm animals. Huge grounds, space for kids to play.

C. S.

One of our favourite places to visit: animals, planes, playground and free parking!

P. L.

Love this place just go for a walk, no hills to climb. Watch the planes, or have a picnic. There are animals in the farm and a cafe.

O. B.

Green, open space, with wide footpaths right by the airport. Perfect for a bit of plane spotting. There is a play area and petting zoo too. Decent parking.

S. H.

Nice, clean and peaceful. Its free to visit also, got small play area for kids. Oh and some horses and sheep.

H. a. R. L.

My kids and I love this park.

M. M.

Fresh clean air lovely place to walk jog or let the dog run, also do a bit of plane watching aswell, paths can get flooded so hiking shoes or wellies are a must specially round this time of the year. Hot flask wouldn't go a miss either.

C. R.

Very popular today considering it was mid week but the path through made it very easy walking and mud free! An enjoyable visit.

F. A.

Lovley park with a small farm area, the indoor area is closed but you can still see the animals outside. Aeroplane spotting is also amazing!

C.

Didnt use the play area because there was lots of people not social distancing. The farm has reopened but its different. The farm carpark is open as usual but the farmyard entrance is closed (aswell as toilets), the farm have moved the animals into the back fields so you can walk round the field and have alook at all the animals out the back whilst be able to maintain social distancing. Picnic on the grass. Lovely day.

C. A.

Lovely park. Nice wide pathways so no problem social distancing. Farm animals out in the fields so you feel you are in the country.

T. B.

Nice walk with the dogs, quite peaceful for such a central location, cool spots for picnics with the family thanks to having a view of Birmingham Airport's runways

T. H.

Absolutely beautiful place for years .. sad to see Birmingham city council don't want to contribute funds to help this place be at its highest place .. everyone loves Sheldon heath farm and could bring so much attention given the chance . God bless these hard working people

J. H.

Lovely place for the kids, some animals and a nice playground. Bigger carpark then I remember.

S.

A very big park plus there's a small farm where children can see the animals. Good for children.

j.

Great place for the children also you can get hot food snacks drinks ice cream see the farm animals watch the planes too 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟👍😃

S. D.

Beatiful place when the sun is shining and families are out with their kids. Avoid at night and when its very quiet as due to undesirables and dirtbikes, it can be sketchy and dangerous!

C. M.

A fave place for my daughter with the farm and play park, then stroll down to watch the planes

L. L.

Still able to see the animals and get hot food just unable to eat by the tea rooms. Staff are friendly. Love going there.

A. A. K.

Beautiful park, quite a few dogs off the lead

M. H.

It was fine. We had a nice walk. If only the farms were open, it would've been great for the kids.

L. N.

A little gem of a place right in the middle of urban Yardley. Walking along the little meandering river on well maintained footpaths was a lovely tranquil experience.

Great experience for my LO. However the farm animals were very far, birds all caged up due to flu and the barn was closed to the public.

P. G.

A nice big open space for dogs to run, or families to have picnics. A farm to see the animals, a cafe for food and drink and on warm days an ice cream stand. The cafe have the added bonus of a bottle warmer for babies bottles.

W. M. C.

(Translated) A good place for a parent-child park, with a children’s play area on one side and a farm on the other side, where you can feed and take a walk, bringing happy time to the children (Original) 親子公園好地方，一邊兒童玩樂區，另一邊有一個農場，可給餵飼，又可散步，給小朋友帶來歡樂時光
