Nurcihan Körpe
★★★★★“The sunset is stunning, making it perfect for evening walks, and it’s a favorite spot for birds. Whether you get caught in the rain, watch lightning, or simply sit on a bench, the experience is always enjoyable. It’s a small park, but very peaceful, and you can even enjoy a distant view of the city and on rare nights, you can even spot the Aurora Australis.”

★★★★★“Always beautiful here. Well maintained, no litter and not places for idiots to hide. Is a nice well maintained playground to the kids, two ovals, and a cricket net area. I don't know if there's toilet I don't think there is however there is water on tap next to the clubhouse on the lower Oval.”

★★★★★“Pretty nice and green park with a really good view as it's a bit higher than other areas. There is a football field and a cricket field as well. Great for picnic and get together and hanging around with friends and play little games. There is a place for kids to play around as well. It is also pet friendly. I have seen a lot of people coming here in the afternoon with their pets and children playing over here. There's a walkway aroind the whole park so can have a walk for 5-7 mins around it as well.”

★★★★★“The facilities are great and there is a fantastic playground, there is street parking but there is a time limits, l went to watch the football and the first game was great but when the second game started about 30 young boys sat next to me and started drinking and swearing which made me very uncomfortable and l don't think the families with little children appreciate it either.”

★★★★★“It's always awesome to visit this park with stunning views of city as it is well situated on height. Play area for kids, occasional club matches, and two big parks, practice nets for cricket, tennis courts and few more construction completed.. Not suitable for picnics, no barbecue. (Edit - now have two spots for barbecue under shed)”
