Sefton Park

A good wheelchair accessible park with wide paths which have signposts for suitable wheelchair friendly routes. There is a Changing Places toilet in the centre of the park next to the cafe/restaurant. The swing park has an ability swing that accommodates a wheelchair, leave a refundable deposit with the cafe in exchange for the keys and harness to secure your wheelchair. There is plenty of parking around the perimeter and at various car parks. Seed can be bought at the cafe and lakeside snack bar to feed the birds but lots of people like to feed the relatively tame squirrels so bring nuts too! I understand model boats enthusiasts use the lake of a weekend as well as fishermen. There are often musicians busking in the park. Photographers are a plenty when a mandarin duck or a kingfisher is spotted. Don’t visit without checking out the beautiful palm house, a lovely renovated visitor Ian glasshouse that is stuffed with exotic plants and often has pop up cafes and events. This is a lovely park used by joggers, students, families, photograpers and is worth a visit.

Busy park with fountains, cafes, a palm house and lots of ducks. Used by many runners and dog walkers, its got brilliant wide paths that are all very smooth and mud-free.
