Greville Smyth Park, Ashton Road, Ashton, Bristol BS3 2EA
Great for: older children, spinning.
This morning the weather was pretty hideous but my daughter wanted to practise her cycling. We fancied a change of scenery but we still needed somewhere flat. This park came to mind. We call it “Loulou’s park” as it’s near where our great friend Loulou used to moor her boat so we used to meet here.
a grey, drizzly day!
I must say this park is much better when the leaves are on the trees as they shelter it from the busy road (the A370) (and when it’s not pouring with rain to be honest!) but it was great for cycling – pretty much flat but with a few slight slopes and a narrower path than Canford park
The playground is great. It’s divided into two by age with the older section having plenty to keep quite old children amused.
