Peasholm Park was designed within a natural glen, with a stream that runs through to the lake. In the summer, the lake is used for boating. Including rowing boats, canoes, and also pedalos and dragon heads which make for a fun family activity.
There are two cafes in the park which sell hot and cold drinks, sandwiches and ice cream in the summer season. The bandstand in the middle of the lake where live music is often put on free of charge, with plenty of great spots to sit and enjoy.
There’s a number of paths through the park to explore. Following the stream takes you past small ponds and gentle waterfalls which are often used for sailing model boats. Throughout the park you’ll find lots of rare and unusual trees and flowers, with a garden area at the top of the glen and plenty of wildlife to be spotted.
