A nice spacious park within walking distance of the city centre. The gardens are well maintained and there are well kept paths to walk along. I was here to start the Brighton marathon.

One of Brighton's oldest parks which you drive by on way into the city from London. Stop and enjoy its many facilities, 2 cafes, sports pitches, tennis courts, bowls, the garden for the blind, the recently restored rose garden by the Rotunda cafe, superb childrens' play area, safe cycling for kids.

I love this park. It's right on my doorstep. There is lots of space and every now and again there is something on for the community to get involved with. There is also a cafe, tennis courts and a couple of landmarks. Check it out, it's always a good alternative to the busy beach!

One of my favourite parts of inner suburban Brighton. A beautiful landscaped park with coffee shops and tennis and bowling facilities. Remember to visit the Tockery on the other side of park for fantastic views and a lovely pond.

This is a huge park in Brighton. Nice place to go cycling,jogging and have picnics during summer.It has such a huge expanse of green lawns and is home to the 'Preston Twins' - widely considered to be the largest and oldest English Elm trees in the world. The trees are at the top end of the park, by the road... More

Don't like the fact the council have started charging visitors 50p for parking here now. It used to be free to park, however I guess it is worth it, it is a nice big green space within a very busy metropolis. Somewhere to go to breath in clean air and get some peace from the office environment. The rotunda cafe... More

One of the best places in Brighton. Despite the fact that it was in the middle of the winter i really enjoyed walking along the footpaths. Great for families and dog owners. There are 2-3 coffee shops you can enjoy a hot cuppa and bus routes just right next to it (3 bus stops every 150yrds or so). The Rock... More

Lovely park with a recently refurbished children's play area. There is also a cycle track, a basket ball and football area, wide open green space for chilling and a lovely flower and rose display. The park is wonderful in the summer and had plenty of parking.
