    I can’t believe this place was free! This was so fun,the kids loved it! We could go on the slides heaps of times with no waiting I definitely would go there again.

    Remembering it is a free park, a great range of facilities. The water play park definitely needs the scheduled works though. A little disappointed as the website indicated that the waterslides were open, they weren't.
