Such a lovely place to visit with the kids. There is an excellent kids playground, with an area for little kids and big kids. There are also beautiful paths through the trees to explore. A lovely calming vibe and space to run around. There is a picnic area with a shade cloth and tables up by the playground. It's a short couple of minutes walk from the car park to the playground. We usually go on a Saturday and it's very quiet.
