Very disappointing experience.The field was filthy — dog poo everywhere, even around the equipment. It was muddy, clearly not cleaned or maintained properly, and not suitable for larger dogs as the owner doesn’t seem welcoming toward big breeds.To make it worse, the family in the house opposite kept watching us the whole time which made it really uncomfortable and not private at all.I won’t be returning and wouldn’t recommend.My dog was also sick afterwards which was very worrying.

Ideal place to train your dog recalling as it’s a fenced in

One of the best dog parks in the area! Dogs absolutely loved it! Great size field, perfect location with loads of agility equipment. Have no idea why previous reviews have complained about the mud, not really muddy at all for an outdoor field in the middle of winter! (Picture of my mostly white dog for evidence) Will definitely be back, highly recommend

Lovey park, lots of space and easy to get to. Lots of agility activities to use and a covered picnic bench. My only issue was that the see saw and bridge were really splintering so weren’t very safe to use but everything else was great.

It was really muddy, most thing were broken. No proper sitting area, it was filthy with lots of mud. For a dog park it was terrible. I would not recommend it. I will not be going there again. It was not worth the money.
We had a great time here, good access and road in,parking was good there was no trouble with parking an xl wheel base truck and turning around, and was still plenty of room for a few other cars too.it rained heavily last night and had been raining today too so was a little muddy as to be expected, but not bad and my dog loves the mud so it didn't put us off one bit!The field is very secure, we had no disturbances we did not see any body on our visit, so If you have a dog that you are training or working out behavioural problems like myself then this is perfect.We tested the whole obstacle course out, and all was great, there were plenty of toys left in the field too and a shelter with a bench to sit and get out of the rain,I cannot fault our experience and will definitely be back again Thankyou:)

Not great … agility tunnel is so slippery thought dog was going to break a leg after he slipped 3 times trying to get through, tyre full of water and road to field like a bog, not much for dogs to do, glad we took our own ball … dog friendly security wise & poop bin 👍
Just finished out first trip to the fields. Absolutely fantastic !! Our dogs absolutely loved the jumps and tunnel. We will definitely be using again!! Highly recommend!!
