Went to the Foolhardy folk festival. Prior to the festival, I walked the park area (pokemon go routes), nice park with some fantastic features.

Beautiful place for evening walk or a picnic with your loved ones. Full of greenery and calm environment. Not much crowded on the day I visited.

Beautiful little park with a few relics of Nottingham. Peaceful walk with my friends. We enjoyed researching the landmarks as we walked around. Feargus o Connor statue, Chinese bell tower, flower garden and there was a parrot sanctuary.

This park is so beautiful, I think the City Council should look after this park more. Light up this park with more flowers. It will be great and amazing if more events happen here.

Beautiful park. You can spend a very nice time. It is located in the city center which is really good . You can come with the whole family and relax.

Relaxing and peaceful. This is a great place to go when you want to be at ease and be with nature.

Great place for a lovely morning stroll and a breathe of fresh air. Away from the hustle bustle of the city centre with greenery and sounds of birds chirping. If there were a few more coffee shops around the place it would be beneficial as there is only one shop and it gets quite busy during the mornings.

A very small but nice park. The parrots are a really cute and the bell tower is very photogenic. It's a bit lifeless and depressing during winter bit very nice in spring and summer. Great for dog walks and picnics

This is such a big peaceful area to visit. The sound of the trees when the wind blows,is such a refreshing sound. The colourful flowers make this place is a relaxing place to be. This is such a nice place to have picnics especially during summer time.There are a number of bins and the park is well maintained. It is important to point out that there is a pond with some ducks and there is a restriction of not feeding these ducks. We love to visit this place as its easily accessible with nearby tram stop and also it is wheelchair accessible.
