Excellent
This is a lovely park with lots of different seating and activities. I really loved wheeling through here because the landscaping was lovely and it was a peaceful spot. There were so many features within the park, play equipment, table tennis tables, crazy mirrors of different shapes and lots of different seating styles too. It’s located at the top of a hill so those that struggle with inclines might find it a bit hard to get up to it.

The path to the park has quite a steep incline but it’s very smooth tarmac so I found that my power attachment handled it quite well. Most of the paths used the same smooth tarmac throughout. There were some features through the grass that had wooden slats, like a bridge, some concrete slabs, acting like stepping stones through the grass, and some small paths with bark on the ground. There were some sections with climbing and playground equipment for children, there were differently shaped mirrors, there was a table tennis table, and even a set of binoculars. Lots of things to interact with. There was also a variety of different types of seating, including some individual blocks made from wood, benches in different styles and materials, some lounger style chairs made from wood and some that even had a canopy overhead. There was a café and bar in the centre of the park but this was closed when I was there and I didn’t see any signage to show when it usually opened. There was a path that left the park and went past the Swansea Building Society Arena that could be used to exit but this had a flight of stairs to navigate. The step-free path is located by the entrance to Paxton Street Car Park.

Parking & Transport
Good
I travelled to this place by walk or wheel
There is a public pay & display car park called Paxton Street Car Park and the step-free entrance to the park is just by the car park entrance. There are also three different bus stops located on the opposite side of Paxton Street Car Park from Amy Dilwyn Park. These are approximately 300 metres away from the park.
Accessible facilities: Public or on street parking
