This is my one of the most favourite place in Newcastle or perhaps in Uk till now. The scenic beauty of lake, swans and birds are amazing. It will give soothing to our mind. Relaxing, wonderful surrounding and happy moment who wants more than this.

Great place to go for a walk in the park in Newcastle.
Has a cafe where you can sit and enjoy some warm beverages. Also has a few croquet courses also.
The walking paths are amazing with nice wildlife (shown in pictures) - the birds will walk up to you as they are curious and friendly.
Parking is available in the streets opposite the field next to the park - free for four hours at the time of update - 12 Jul 21.
Definitely worth a visit.
N. H.

Visited Exhibition park as park of an easter walk around The Toon just to catch a glimpse of the Elsa & the Born Free lions..
And judging by the amount of peeps & tiddly peeps who were also visiting its been a roaring success so far
S. B.
Lovely day out. Lunch in cafe was delicious, all four of us enjoyed our meals. Took some cakes home for later, also delicious....Will be back! Great Park to walk our dog too.
D. S.
Great place to walk and relax. Swans, ducks and Moor hens on the water. Beer from the brewery. Coffee teas and snacks from the cafe. Great places/ spaces to bring kids and have a picnic if the weather is fine
J. G.
A beautiful park with large lakes, it made a beautiful backdrop for a wedding. The visiting fair was also a bonus
t. g.
This was my first visit for a long time as I wanted to see the lion exhibition I was most
Impressed with the park and cafe oh and the
Exhibit was amazing
B. M.
The 25 lions are part of an installation which aims to raise awareness of the plight facing the world's lion population
such a well maintained park, great for all ages
E. V.
Lovely park with some enterntainment provided for kids. Great brewery and cafe. Swan lake. At times, a bicycle club is running, then it's rather vivid, but mostly tranquil.
P. C.
A wonderful cafe with great menu, children's play area including swimming gs, slides, climbing and with a sand base for safety. Large open spaces to picnic, bandstand if you want to... and two manicured croquet lawns. Currently a "Born Free" lions art I stallion exhibition too. And who can forget the large boating lake.
M. H.
Great early Summer afternoon in Exhibition Park.
The park was buzzing today with a good mix of families and young people enjoying the open space and a short period of relative calm just outside the busy Newcastle city centre.
Also nice to see the tennis and basketball courts being used in the way they were designed.
The skate park was swarming with scooters meaning the skate boards were out on the paths mixing with pedestrians and dog walkers. Not a real problem though as they keep themselves away from the crowds and the ones that ventured near me as I was walking about gave me a wide berth or was it me who steered wide? Anyways plenty of space so it wasn't a problem.
In summary a nice park to escape to for some chill time away from the city centre.
W. G.
Really good park in an ideal location in Newcastle, connecting all the way to residential areas down in Gosforth and Kenton. Close to city centre. Good spot to walk your dog/children or just have a nice picnic in the Spring/Summer months. Loads of wildlife to observe too!
A. S.
Nice park for a walk, just hard to find a place to park. There are some cute birds and bees flying around.
C. T.
Nice places to sit in the sun or to take the kids to play.
If you fancy a pint and some dirty chips there is the Wylam Tap which jas a huge selection of fine booze
P. D.
A public space much loved by Tynesiders. I quote from Pevsner "Buildings of England Northumberland" ....."A bite taken out of the Town Moor to provide a site for the Royal Jubilee Exhibition of 1887.All that survives is the BANDSTAND at the east side in the shadow of the urban motorway"........."The North East Coast Exhibition of 1929, for which the layout and most of the buildings were designed by W. & T.R. Milburn of Sunderland, left rather more behind: not only the well-known, 'Exhibition Ale' but also a promenade from the Claremont Road entrance to the lake , and, on the far side of the lake, one of the of the buildings erected to display exhibits. Most of these were meant to be temporary, but this, the Palace of Arts, was steel-framed and clad in artificial stone for permanence and the security of the valuable works of art displayed." It has, in the past, variously been the Newcastle Museum of Science and Engineering, I remember Charles Parson's "Turbinia" being housed here, and The Military Vehicle Museum.
When I visited on the 27th November '20, a sign over the pillared portico indicated "Wylam Brewery", definitely a most noble use for this building, so symbolic of Newcastle upon Tyne.

Home of Wylam brewery! The only reason I've given this place a 4 star rating is because I didn't get to go inside because there was a wedding on. I know Wylam do fantastic beers and their taproom has been on my bucket list for a while now so its a shame I never got to go in. We sat outside. The staff are friendly and the service was quick. Hope to visit again and get to go in the taproom.
G. W.

Great big park with lots of things to do. By the Exhibition Park entrance there is a skate park with many jumps both for bicycles and skates. As you walk more into the park and go under a bridge the park opens up, to the right there are couple tennis and basketball courts and right next there is a park for younger and older kids. There is a wall to climb, a large slide, sand pits, roundabout, diggers, swings etc. Next to the kids park there is a cafe with indoors and outdoors seating area and a toilet. There is also plenty of green for people to walk their dogs, have a picnic or just walk through on their way to town or to Jesmond.
P. G.
Stilt walking in the park on a warm sunny day in June! Perfect. Great open space close to centre of Newcastle with an excellent cafe and a pub worth visiting for the facade alone. The beer and food isn't too bad either! Definitely worth a visit.
D. E.
Nice for a walk. Urban Green Cafe is a nice stop off for a coffee.
T. H.

The place is very family friendly.
There are playgrounds , which include slides , swings, sand play area, and other activities.
It has a cafe which is of great quality and excellent prices.
The picnic was wonderful, not to mention the great weather in June.

Great space...disappointed with the experience...wedding took over most of the venue meaning that the bar was overcrowded and hellishly noisy.....very cold too and the fire left too out...sat with coat on all evening
K.
Lovely park!
Lots to do there. Wide open space, lots of playground, a pond and a brewery. They have different events there throughout the year. Incredible place to be right in the middle of town!
A. D.
Love some of the events they have on here. Always a good atmosphere in the venue and obviously the drinks are great. This would be 5stars if they could light up the paths on the way through the park. Not the safest of walks I'd say.
J. G.
Huge area, with a nice brewery at the end and close to cowhills
L. C.
Fantastic park good for family's.
R. R.
It was pitch black being late at night. Had an enjoyable walk through the park, from Wylam brewery to the haymarket metro station.
J. Q.
Grate little sopping precinct, very good parking for free and plenty of shops for all your day to day items.
A. R.
Beautiful park to enjoy with the toddler with a fantastic cafe .
G. J.
A wonderful place to take a walk and enjoy a bite to eat and something to drink at the Brewery. Even better for live music. Hayseed Dixie were spot on as usual.
S. L.
Urban Green cafe. Great coffee, dog friendly, lovely staff and clean toilets! What's not to like?!
L. S.
Lovely place not only for kids but also for teens and adults and dogs 😊 there are scooter ramps at the entrrence and then tenis courts, playground, claiming wall and claiming nets, outdoor jim, lake/pond with all sort of birds, wylam brewery and a miniature train rides at certain day of the month at the back of it. In the middle of the park is a caffe with excellent icecream we can never resist
M. C.
Good for a walk with a nice cafe and children's play area.

Great spot for picnics and fun! The weather was pleasant enough when we went(thank god!) so was able to enjoy a memorable picnic day! The swans roaming around are sooo pretty! 😍! A lot of people walk their dogs too so saw a lot of adorable munchkins that way! Hehe!
T.
Born free exhibition was amazing, I love the cafe there too.
L. C.
Some of the kids play equipment broken (roundabout, water play equpment and noise making things) but other than that the park itself is very pleasant.
Walking along the water edge the reeds are overgrown and blocking the main paths so not great with pushchair, my 5 year old loved it though he said it was like a jungle.
S. A.
Lovely space

A park on the edge of town, its getting busy this time of year but during the colder months there's not so many will venture there. Its pleasant enough, lots of grass, trees and a small boating lake with more birds than boats. You can almost forget you're in the city, almost. The nearly constant shriek of sirens reminds you though. Theres tennis courts, basketball court, a cafe, a playpark and a croquet lawn. And there's something called the Wylam Brewery whk seem to host various events I never know anything about. Im sure it used to be an old war museum. I have a distinct recollection of a plane and was dissapointed it wasnt there.
S. B.
Nice open area for walks and park area good too
F. S.
Attended a wedding reception here and it was a superb venue for the reception.
J. J.
Plenty chavs, students, dogs and lions.
Bit run down like most city centre parks.
K. C.
Pretty nice park, nice day out with kids
R. S.
One of the numerous green spaces we have in the toon to enjoy. As well as the world famous Wylam Brewery, there's a great cafe, children's play area and access to the Town Moor and nearby Branding Park.

Great park area. play areas are fantastic, lots of space to wonder. service at kiosk was extremely slow - recommend bringing good your own. took approx 45min to get served due to cue.
J. A.
Great place to spend playtime with children grandchildren. Place to have coffee or tea ice-cream or just to watch kids play. Great skate or bike area for kids all ages .
C. S.
We had lunch at the Urban Garden cafe when doing a reccie for the Great North Run last week. Definitely a find. Lovely staff and delicious food. Would recommend.
v. s.
Our first time visit, the weather was generously warm, the kids were so excited. Having fun but still social distancing. In the middle of city. Happy!
s. h.
Just been to a wedding and it was a great and unusual place for a wedding
G. w.
This has got to be the biggest park I have every visited! Very nice, great for runners, dog walkers and picnics. Very close to the city centre and university.
L. D.
Great park, the cafe is really nice and has an accessible toilet. Quite often the venue for local events. A nice walk and play park
D. M.
My first visit to Newcastle upon Tyne i went to this nice park.

An enjoyable Saturday afternoon stroll from Newcastle Centre and around Park. A walk around the lake. View the Wylan brewery with domed roof. View the Freeman's clock. Great views of the city.
r. m.
Great venue for a walk and a real ale
D. “. K.
I love this park, we frequently cycle there with the littluns (2 and 4) for a play. Not tried the new park café yet, we tend to swing by the nearby Batch for our lunch.
G. Y.
Wylam Brewery brilliant venue and great live entertainment.
S. F.
Exhibition park is a lovely open space within easy walking distance of Newcastle city centre. Wylam Brewery is based in the park and the taproom is worth a visit if you enjoy craft beer.
R. T.
Great Park in the middle of the city. Parking can be a pain but the haymarket metro is a 5 min walk away.
Wylam brewery sits in the midst and has great beer and food. Vegan and dog friendly
S. A.
Great place to visit, brewery, trains (check running days and times), pond with ducks, play ground, coffee shop and other stuff
K. T.
Love this park, always well kept and tidy. The volunteers and park rangers do a fantastic job. The plants and flower displays are always looked after. Lovely green space to walk through and get some fresh air. Nice big lake to walk around and a decent cafe with super friendly staff. How lucky we are to have such a fantastic park right in the city centre adjoining the town moor. Perfect for running, walking your dog or cycling or even just a nice long walk.
P. B.
Loved it, nice change from a normal pub.
M. S.
Lovely place to walk - the lake has lots of birds to look out for - and a great play area for the children. The cafe is also good for snacks and ice cream. I haven't visited the brewery but have heard it's highly recommended!
M. H.
Lovely park very clean my son loves the big slide he goes super fast and its all sand in the play areas so they don't get hurt lots to do plenty grass for a picnic its a lovely day out
P. S.
Fantastic experience. Lovely place. Brilliant brewery
K.
Great cafe in the park with amazing ice cream. Good range of play equipment for children of all ages. Free tennis courts and basketball court and lots of open space to picnic. Paths weaving through the park are great for scooters and bikes and outdoor gym equipment is available.
The lake has a number of water birds resident and we saw rabbits in the woodland. This is a lovely family area.
A. D.
Very well maintained park and fantastic brewery / wedding venue
M. D.
Nice place for a stroll. There are not any hiking trails. Throwback to early 20th Century exhibitions. Loads for kids of all ages!
P. D.
Huge open green space in the middle of a busy city . Urban green cafe to sit and watch the world . Lovely lakes and birds of the feathered type .used by all .
J. R.
Wylam Brewery is in a great spot at Exhibition Park. Great outdoor space on the outskirts of the city.
S. N.
Exhibition Park, Town Moor, home of the shows and Hoppings. A lovely place when the sun is shining.
h. c.
The park itself is an okay place to go for a walk but there's better. The best part is the brewery who have a lovely deck outside which gets all the afternoon sun and some lush ales and beer for you to sip and soak up the sun. It's be 5 stars if it was just the brewery!
C. Y.
Realy lovely place to spend an hour
z. H.
Superb. Well done N.A.A.M. Thanking all the wonderful people in Newcastle... we love coming up there every year. See you in 2022, Insha'Allah.
v. c.
Beautiful park with lots to do!!!
H. T.
Lovely park with easy access to longer walk around town moor. Also great coffee and ice cream at Urban Green cafe!
M. F.
Good open space with many facilities you would expect of a public park. There are a lot of worse parks in the North East but a few better e.g. Saltwell, Jesmond Dene/Heaton Park.
M. H. R.
Lovely place. Very scenic.
S. R.
This park is fantastic! The park is brilliant. Loads to do for kids in the playground. Climbing frames, slides, sand, a wooden musical see-saw flute and some water play. I didn't explore the whole park but if the kids area is anything to go by the rest will be excellent. There is also a cafe that sells drinks, cakes and ice cream. Located right next to the play ground...probably not by coincidence!
K. I. C.
A great place for kids to run amok.
J. T.
A fine park with lots of amenities.
A. C.
We were very disappointed at the state of the underpass which u walk under to get to the park. Full bins, litter and bottles everywhere. Surely on a weekend more people r using the park so the bins shd be emptied.
D. C.
Fab venue. On the expensive side though so take plenty of dollar with you!!
H. B.
Park well maintained and play area for children. I was walking my friends dog who was keen in going to cafe. I knew it was dog friendly but I wasn't expecting them to give the dog sausage!! A very happy dog indeed!
G. B.
Great place to visit with the family. Unfortunately, the cafeteria is closed due to COVID.
L. N.
Lovely Park with great café and lots of things for kids to do. There are some interesting birds on the lake.
R. W.
Nice green spaces, play area and unenclosed lake to enjoy walking around - it's also home to the Wylem Brewery if you fancy a drink.
M. J.
Showed signs of cold weather and clearly lots of people have been there since it opened. Very picturesque. My fiance doesn't like snow ball fights
P. W.
Loads to do here 😊 Great for exploring! Nature hunts, duck pond, stylish cafe with a gr8 menu, toilets for paying customers only and we didn't come across a public one. Loads of little kids parks, tennis, basketball court and a ping pong table.
C. S. U. K. C.
Great mela 2021
P. N.
Imposing formal park and lakeside surroundings and an uber cool modern upgrade of a classic Art Deco building. Plus they have beer!!!!!
R. M.
Beautiful park with a lake, 2-3 parks for children and teens of all ages. Theres even a small cafe. Only downside is the roundabout in the play park doesnt turn anymore but there are still lots of other options. Theres also a football/basketball court
m. b.
Nice green area... Great for running!
J. W.
Great educational place for adults & children. Free entry as well 👍
D. A.
Great beers and a great live venue
C. A.
This place is just great for kids, and adults for that matter.
Whether the kids are playing in one of the two parks catering for all age groups or the tennis & basketball courts for older kids and adults alike, and then there's the skate / scooter park area at the entrance too - whilst accompanying adults can sit watch over their younger ones on one of the many seats or the well kept grass throughout the park.
There are other area's of interest throughout the park too including balance beams, a big net area, the bandstand, the small duck pond & nature reserve area, many paths through the park to outlying areas & of course not to forget the Café in the Park with their wonderful ice cream to complete that visit to the park on a hot day having labouriously looked after the kids whilst they play, and I suppose they can have some too!
The café does other food of course & a selection of cakes too, open for ordering until approx 5pm weekdays & 6pm weekends throughout the summer, though do check the door for last order & kitchen closing times if you are planning on eating later.
To sum up Exhibition park, this really is a good place with ample parking nearby and I have given 4 stars simply because it could be an excellent place and earn 5 with a couple simple safety additions, cycle lanes for example for the many bikes, some of them that have less than courteous riders to be conscientious of the children around & a net or rail perhaps to prevent kids who understandably want to climb the dirty walls of the tunnel under the central motorway.
A. J.
Great place for kids to run around. Play park and cafe too
J. E.
Sunday lunch at Wylam brewery was fantastic. Supper friendly staff. Amazing service and wonderful surroundings. My husband and I had the nut lentil roast while the rest of the family enjoyed the meat option. Couldn't fault the quality. Will definitely be back. Definitely book in advance because it's the only way to get a table.
B. R.
Went to see the festival. Was great for the most part. You can't account for other people though.
T. D.
Canny park, very green and full of rainbow roller bladers... Couldn't get much better! I just hope one day the lake becomes a more natural colour and the swans get less aggy
D. M.
We love to come here the children love it very clean and so much fun. Great day out for the kids. 👍
T. S.
Little Gem just outside the city center. Would be rude not to pop into Wylam for a quick taster....
K. S.
Lovely park, it has a large sandpit with a play frame inside of it. Inventive see saws and if you explore further into the forest area over the back there are more log based climbing apparatus for the older kids to mess with, also to the right of the lake there is a cool water play area.
A. M.
Great place for a walk. My son loves the playground and the cafe does nice ice cream. No public toilets but if you buy something from the cafe you can use theirs
M. M.
Burger Competition today. Great idea.
D. B.
Lovely place for a wander around in your lunch break.
n. c.
Serene!!!
B. F.
Love this park. The brewery and cafe are both amazing places to visit. The playparks cover all ages needs and come summer the water park is great for younger children. Park is clean and well maintained.
T. T.
Went to a gig which was excellent. The building is beautiful, fantastic beer. Food menu is limited.
L. H.
Great spot right near the centre of the city. Skate park, children's play park as well as loads of green space for picnics. Great cafe and brewery on the grounds too!
J. A.
Nice walk,good facilities.
M. H.
I was invited to attend the Live Steam event held last Sunday by an old friend, which in itself was an enjoyable way to spend a few hours, but I also took time to go into the park and see lots of people enjoying the sunshine by the lake and on the well kept grass, children playing and some families having picnics. A very pleasant place!
L. H.
Great open space on the edge of the city centre, very welcoming cafe in the park with hot meals, also local brewery run pub/restaurant. Brilliant for dog walkers, cyclists exercise area and children's playground. Small boating lake.
L. S.
Lovely park within walking distance of the city centre. There is an extensive play park, small lake, coffee shop, band stand, coffee shop and tennis courts. The park is also home to Wylam brewery who host many events including food festivals and gigs. The park also hosted a music festival in the summer and it was lovely to see the space used by so many people having a brilliant time!
p. l.
Sunny day, beautiful walk round the park. Nice coffee in urban cafe. Tasty fruit scone
E. W.
Swans, ducks, trees, a park fit for an exhibition.
F. A.
A huge park, very clean and tidy. Lovely to take the kids for a walk or outdoor activities.
M. B.
A child's play area and cafe always popular. The lake has a wildlife area. There is pleasant walking here with places to sit and observe the day. The extensive town Moor is thorough the hedge for longer walks and up the small hills to an elevation where Tyneside can be viewed in 360degrees.
G. W.
Park is nice with cafe in the middle and the wylam brewery at the end which has a good selection of beers
d. h.
Amazing Park, duck pond, loads of little play areas for kids, bring a bucket and spade because there is a huge sand pit, gym equipment, nets to climb, a couple of tennis courts and a football/basketball court.
Further through there is a skateboard/ scooter park. And plenty of places for picnics.
The only downside is the traffic that now runs through the park to get to the Wylam brewery.
Its not as safe as it was, and a lot of the cars travelling through do not adhere to the speed limit making it not quite as relaxed as a park should be!
P. W.
A very good place to visit for all of the family
N. Q.
I do park run here which is a fab one to do, its flat of your a beginner and has lovely views of the country. The park itself is lovely, has a decent size park for the kids, a cafe with indoor /outdoor seating and lots of green space you can chil out on
P. N.
Lovely outdoor area in the heart of the city. Plenty of grassy areas for picnics and sunbathing, a small lake with swans, Wylam Brewery which has events on, today was a Star Wars themed pizza festival, 3 bars inside, a beer garden and plenty space for food stalls. Also a cafe in the park next to quite a large kids play area separated into different age groups and tennis courts. There is also a skate park at the entrance of the park.
Y. K.
Nice place

J. B.
We visited Wylam Brewery in the park and was well worth the visit. Excellent choice of.drinks and street food.
V. C.
Beautiful city centre park with a very good park café. A good place to take first time visitors to Newcastle.
M. D.
One of the best central parks in Newcastle (alongside Leazes Park) that boasts a duck pond, child play areas, band stand, basketball courts, tennis courts and a cafe. Also, a very good brewery and tap room!
R. T.
Went for a wedding at the Wylam Brewery. Great venue with a good selection of ales brewed on site. Top marks to Rod Master of Ceremonies and Nick who gave us a Tour/talk in the brewery.

Pleasant, reasonably large park on edge of Town Moor. Close to city centre. Pond with ducks and swans. Brewery, café and large children's play area. Extensive playing fields. Feels nice and open. Worth visiting.
A.
Nice walk through the grounds. Plenty of space for kids or dogs to explore. A typical park/garden. In spring/summer when it's full of colour feom the flowers, it's very pleasant.
S. T.
Wylam beer and very nice food, all in a big lovely park. Had a grand night.
L.
I love Exhibition Park. My toddler lives the park and the ice cream in the cafe is lovely! It can get really busy on warm sunny days. It's great having Wylam Brewery in there now too.
O. C.
Kids play area.
Cafe with delicious food and ice cream.
Nice place for a hang out.
D. J.
Wylam Brewery is a great place to get an outdoor drink and great food... easy ordering via an app with quick table service
S. R.
Lovely well maintained open space in the heart of Newcastle city. Lake, well tended shrubbery, skate park, above-average sand pit and playground for kids, with nice cafe and brewery.
E. B.
Cafe in the Park is good for coffee and food. Has outside space and is dog friendly. Park has good play spaces for children. Adult Saturday and children Sunday morning park runs. Cycle club Saturday mornings for children.
J. B.
Great place for all the family. Excellent play grounds for children of all ages. There are tennis courts and a skateboard park too. Not forgetting the pond with all its wildlife!!
A. R.
Gorgeous place to walk around and relax. Great for walking dogs! Nearby Wyman's Brewery is a good place to drop in for a quick tipple too!
J. M.
Pleasant park, been coming here since the early 90s, back when the Wylam brewery was a war museum.
b. s.
Fresh air and green place .
R. H.
Good for a stroll. Also has really smooth paths so brilliant for skate boarding and if you can get in there is a skate park. But it's packed with people on scooters and bikes.
M. M.
It's alright with nothing exciting except for the occasional events that occur . However those are far and few in between . Word has it that it's a good place to meet women for some extra activity . You would be better going to a big name park if you are planning on taking your family or your significant other to a park .
D. G.
Great open venue in the current circumstances. The Wylam brewery based in the pavilion provides a covid compliant and safe place to eat and have a drink
T. R.
Lovely little park with lots to do. Nice little cafe which serves lovely ice cream. Pond needs weeding and dredging to clean it up n get more wildlife in it though
S. B.
Second view with a nice park to take the kids to. Nice walk if you have a dog or to tire out a child haha. Good bar next to the pond too.
J. D.
Amazing park in central Newcastle, very well kept and beautiful to look at. Plenty of things to keep kids entertained and very good food and drink on offer.
R. I.
A very pleasant place to be in the middle of a big city. Not surprisingly very well used, even though the weather was poor.
L. W.
Nice ducks in the lake infornt
C. J.
If it is a sunny day do not hesitate coming here.
A. T.
A short walk from Haymarket, this large park next to the Town moor, has a skate park, out door gym, kids play area, tennis courts and Cafe.
The latest edition is the Wylam brewery in the recently refurbished palace of arts, which has a tap room and event space.
It's a good day out for the kids, and nice place for a gentle walk ending in a pint in the brewery
k. g.
Great place to go for peace and relaxation
T. R.
They have some good things going on here every now and then. It's a nice place to take the kids out and about if you have any. Otherwise nice just for a walk and a bit of green near town.
S. S.
nice day
I. G.
Perfect place to go out for a walk/jog or run. It's got an ice cream shop, a small pond to walk around and plenty of open space, lush and green.
R. S.
Great for the whole family including the dogs. Ideal access to the town Moor, as well as the toon. Much nicer walk through exhibition park than walking the streets and underpasses to get to town.
S. A.
Peaceful
m.
Lush place to go and always a lot to see. Wylam breweries is also there which is a great watering hole with great staff and ample places to sit
L. J.
Great day out with grandson finished off with a lovely blue icecream!
M. C.
Ideal location close to Newcastle City Centre and Jesmond metro station. Lots of green space to chill out on a nice day with nearby Wylam Brewery offering food in addition to good beers.
There is also a skatepark which seems to be well maintained as it is always being used whenever I visit.
S. T.
Great day out with the kids
G. S.
Nice Stoll round the lake
A. P.
Lovely spot, lake,green spaces and quiet corners. Benches and a coffee cart. Needs public toilets.

Lovely green space to walk through and get some fresh air. Nice big lake to walk around and a decent cafe with super friendly staff.
a. k.
Very good park
R. F.
Great beer and food. Parmorama and pizza from fire and dough were great
C. N.
A nice park, with a lot of things to do for a lot of different people, it's just such a shame that so much of this great facility is constantly being vandalised. Sure it would be cheaper to hire security guards or put up CCTV rather than keep repairing it all the time?!
G. H.
Fabulous beers and a great Sunday roast.
B. P.
It's ok. Not that much there. A park, cafe, and a once boating type lake which is now a wildlife park. There was a museum but now it's a brewery. Great in the summer. You have to park in the city
D. W.
Amazing park beautiful atmosphere and a massive pond so great specially going for a walk
K. S.
Went for Asian Mela. Always look forward to come here as there is a lot to do. Delicious food; beautiful and traditional clothes; great rides; and fabulous time with family.

Took the dog for a walk while the wife was at the RVI hospital. Went to the Cafe in the Park had a good cup of coffee and the dog got a sausage given as a treat Perfect.
P. H.
A beautiful park for a walk or a coffee and a place to take the little one to play in the park. I have visited this park for many years and its developed into a lovely place to visit regularly.
A. R.
Beautiful. Quiet. Great place to bring the kids: small boat lake, playground, space to run around. Wide footpath to run on too.
I. M.
Wylam brewery is always worth a visit if you want quality, locally brewed beers on tap. Try their Japanese whisky; it's a bit "out of the ordinary". Cheers
J. M.
Northern kin festival is amazing !!!
C. R.
A nice public space in a busy city. With a reasonable park.

J. S.
At the wylam brewery for a wedding....stunning service and reception. Brilliant staff
d. w.
In wylam brewery... you need to sort out drink tariffs.... or train your staff to add up!!! Two different prices for the same drinks even though we queried the first price !
H. W.
Nice pub garden, but very disappointed with the way prices were displayed they were actually half pint prices but made to look as tho they were pint prices

A lot of land with nothing on. Would be great if there was even more parks in there. We need more places to go for our children.
