There are two free carparks one at the top of the hill by Elmdon church and the other is accessed from Tanhouse Farm Lane and is close to the lake. It has been expanded in recent years to include a nature reserve which is a large area that was previously farmers fields. The expansion has also taken in an area that was previously an old walled garden. Wellies are often needed in this area. On our last visit we noticed there had been substantial improvements to the walkways in the woodland area next to the lake. It is a very attractive park and very popular with dog walkers. We visit during the week as it gets very busy at weekends.

We are so lucky to have parks. Elmdon has a play area for children, a stream, a lake, an old parish church and great slopes for sledging on if we get snow. A nature reserve is on the doorstep too. Obviously spoilt at times by a very small number of dog owners who don’t clear up dog mess and also litter left by the selfish. But a tremendous facility that we should cherish.

Gorgeous walks around a huge park with lake. There are swans, ducks and geese.There is a small pier where children and people feed the ducks. It's got a hill which is a climb up to a church. There is a walled garden at the top of the hill.( Difficult to find ) Sledging in this park when it snows is a delight. There is a small Brook that goes through the park with three little bridges going over. The park has a play area and tennis court. Although nets are often broken.

Great park lovely views and plenty to do including children’s play area for the little ones. I regularly take my niece here for a little outing and there is always plenty of people around.. there is an ice cream van, an area to feed the birds a little forest walk and nice big patches of grass to play on. There is foot paths making the park very accessible on wheels to

Elmdon park is fantastic example of a typical British park, whether summer or winter its still great with its history e.g. church housing a crypt which the Spooner family are buried in who suffered from the plague to in the summer there is tea and cake served on a sunday at St Nicholas Church which is situared in the park itself - i can personally reccomend it lol - elmdon park also includes a nature reserve featuring ruins aswell as two ponds plus a babbling brook which is great for the kids to paddle in - i thoroughly reccomend it for a free day out - all you need to do is take a picnic!

We took our dog for the guy time. She loved it. Decent space with a variety of grass and wetlands. Met a number of friendly dog walkers. Sufficient car parking makes it easy to get to.

several Professional Dog Walkers use this park, we meet many other dogs on our walks a lady from In the dog House Solihull walks hers there she is great I know several people who board their dogs with her www.inthedoghousesolihull.com the park has a very long walk available some 5 miles of trekking, care must be taken near the airport fence as dog do not expect a jet to come over but other than that the walks are great.

A really interesting slice of countryside almost literally within a stones throw from Birmingham Airport and the jaguar/Landrover works. Lots of interesting nooks and crannies.

Elmdon park in Solihull is hidden treasure. Situated behind a residential estate and along side the world famous Land Rover plant it expands into a glorious setting for picnics and walks. The main feature is a lake filled with swans, ducks, migrating birds, and fish. On one side of the lake is a dense wood that comes to life with bluebells and wild life in the spring, on the other side are rolling hills with expanses of open grass land kept well manicured. At the top of the hills you will find a very old church, walk past onto the narrow lane, turn right and on the left you will find a hidden gem an old walled garden that is currently being restored. surprise after surprise in such a residential area.

It’s been a number of years since I last visited this park set in the middle of Sheldon/Solihull in Birmingham. Ok kids play area/ tennis courts and a generous portion of grassy park land. Lots of beautiful flora and nature in the surrounding boarders . Big lake a secret walled garden all be it derelict but still fun to have discovers this , I think it was part of the old Elmdon manor. Had fun you will too.
