We're so lucky to have this play area in Bakewell, it's a great place to meet up with friends and let the kids run off some energy.

We visited on a sunny Saturday and had a lovely time, the kids enjoyed the swings and slides, but it was a bit crowded.

The kids had a great time playing on the seesaw and the roundabout, the play area is well-designed and safe.

The play area is lovely, but the car park can get a bit full on weekends, maybe consider getting there early to secure a spot.

It's a nice play area, but the toilets could do with a bit of an update and there weren't many benches for parents to sit on.

This play area is fantastic, our little ones had a blast on the climbing frame and the picnic area is perfect for a family lunch.
