The children's playground has been reworked in the last few years; it always was good, but now it's even better and very popular with my children (8 & 5). There're a couple of cafes adjacent, a large pond to walk round, and ducks to see.

We have a family association with Highfields going back a long way.It is a delightful park and we saw swans on the lake and squirrels playing.The gardens are beautifully maintained.Highfields House is now part of the University and has recently been extensively and sympathetically renovated.Here the walled-garden was amazing and well-tended.It is a pleasure to see such an old estate...

Lots of road works around the area at the moment for the new tram system, so lots of traffic jams difficult to get to by any means of transport.
Beautiful park with a lovely large boating lake overlooked by Nottingham University, ideal for a walk around the lake you can also walk into the university grounds which are also beautiful,
there is also good food choices, the downside I find is the parking I mostly catch a bus now days you catch a bus mostly every 10 minutes next...

This is a very good cheap day for the family, took a picnic, with friends children They played on the childrens play area, lots of open soace and a nice walk around the lake. You can even higher a boat. Most enjoyable day. Shame that they do not have the paddling pool any more but a good cheap day out.
Great natural Park with a nice well kept garden around a big lake, just the right amount for a gentle stroll. Could do with a bit more parking but people are always coming and going, it would have been 5 stars if it had more parking. Ice cream van there most days and a cafe area/ :)
Boating, ice creams, bouncy castles, sand pits, biking, hiking and exploring, lots to do although at first glance you might not think so. The gardens are beautiful, the walks alongside the lake is good fun for the jids too. A good afternoon out at very little expense.
Its a lovely place to walk around and have picnics and when in season have a go on a rowing boat, theres a playing park for the children a nice cafe and free car parking well it was last year anyway.lovely lakes to walk around even if not having a go on the boats. looking forward to going this spring/summer.
Had a lovely day out with the grandchildren and dog, lovely place for walking the dog and the children enjoyed the play area lots of things for them to play on, very safe play area. facilities were nice and clean lots of places to sit and have a picnic.
