Nice walk around the park and able to let the pup off lead. River, ducks and hockey pitch along with a cafe make this a good place to visit

Visiting family and came here to watch my hooman cousin play hockey. Had a nice walk around the park which was puppy friendly and able to go off lead, for well behaving pups. I was tied to the fence whilst the grownups watched the hockey which was a bit boring for me - I’m sure I would have made a great addition to the team!

Parked here on a trip to Warwick, lovely park and gardens, right by the river with nice walks, there is a cafe with lovely ice cream, only down side today was the toilets were out of order and it was a long walk to the leisure centre for another. Worth a visit

We had a few hours to spend and went to the park after it was recommended to us. We didn't get to explore all of it as we had an excited small child with us who wanted to try everything. It wasn't too busy despite being in the summer holidays. The cafe, small paddling pool, play area, small crazy golf, and small fairground rides are clustered together. With space to spill out for play ball games, or fly a kite as we did. The fairground rides operate on a card system that you put money on to then spend. Unfortunately there are things then interspersed between the rides which need £1 A palace to pester power. Looking forward to another visit to explore the rest of the park.

Very unhappy with my visit too the fun fair with my children one having sensory issues and my children and myself were both spoken to rudely by more than one member of staff! No people skills what so ever! All young staff with no manners. Working with children can’t even crack a smile also blatantly engorged my children when speaking to them. This is not all staff but most of them. Definitely all need training! Ruined the visit!

Fantastic family friendly park.
Although our family is grown up, it's easy to see the attraction for families with young children.
When we visited the temperature was 34°c and the paddling pool was the most favoured attraction.
Nice walks through the park and along the river. Unfortunately the scorching heat had withered a lot of the flowers and there was almost no grass.
Our one criticism was the overflowing litter bins. Visitors were trying to do their bit but the council were not emptying the bins as required.

This place always gets packed for parking! In the summer they seem to have an overflow parking area, but I think needs to open when they know the weather is going to be good!
We had a great time once we parked further in the town. Its great that you top up a card which gives tokens and then scans for the rides!
Nice big grassy areas for picnics/ ball games and a good walk!

Visited on the hottest days of the year at 7.30am to let my dogs get some exercise along with lots of friendly dog walkers, runners and cyclists. Not many children because of the time of the day. Beautiful gardens very well looked after we came in from the Coten End side of the park and went straight across the bridge, walked along the river where there were several places the dogs could get in and safely get out. We realised that we had to come out of the park to walk over the road bridge to walk back in the park. This side of the river is not ideal for dogs getting in the river. Walking through the park over to the childrens park there is a little brook where tiny dogs can wet their paws safely.

I wandered through the park on the way back to my car and bought an ice cream from the café. Very relaxing and a few places to sit and people watch if you're inclined.

If I park in mytton fields, is the young chap with the boat still operating a ferry or do I have to walk round. We have very fond memories of the little boat, and I now want to bring my granddaughter

Sorry I’ve only just seen your question. I’m afraid I don’t know that but I’m sure if you made a call to the warwick council they would tell you. X
Is the splash Park free?

Yes it is but the fair ground rides and the crazy golf do have admission prices but you can get those details of their website.

As has been said before, there are a few benches in a fenced off area by the fairground (ideal if you need shade), but there are also some by the play area, which have a much better view of the park. There are plenty of benches with a great Riverside view too.

Are dogs allowed?

I don't know if there is supposedly a ban, based on the response above, however there is constantly people walking and playing with their pups in the park, and from memory dog poop bins around the park.
I'd think as long as you're responsible and your dog is under control then their should not be an issue....... a quick google bought up the link below, which states dogs are not allowed in the paddling pool (which makes sense), and on the warwick district council site states dogs are allowed in all Warwcik district parks
