The picturesque gardens in the heart of the city provide the perfect setting for family strolls, dog walking and simply relaxing.

Broadly triangular in shape, the entrances into the gardens are connected by straight tree-lined walks around the perimeter of the site, and the gardens also include a children's play area, restaurant and ice cream kiosk.
