I like Kings Heath park, it's got a lot going for it. First…read moreoff, it's a like a park of two halfs, oh and it's massive. It's like maybe two, three or even four parks in one. You've got the footpath that leads all the way around the park, which is popular with walkers, joggers and cyclists. This path will lead you from one of the three entrances right down to where the park edges alongside the trainline. How many miles this walkway is I don't know, but it's a good walk to take it all in. The path snakes in around the parks water feature which is really quite beautiful and is popular with ducks. There is also a tea room, tennis courts, a bowling green, basketball hoops, and two childrens playgrounds. This is a supreme park with large open grass spaces to boot. Kings Heath park is a great asset to the south of Birmingham and has a great deal to offer visitors.

We really are…read moreblessed / spoiled over in the south of the city when it comes to parks - there seems to be one every few hundred yards - from large, countryside-equse open spaces like Warley Woods and the Lickeys, to ornate urban parks like Cannon Hill Park. This place is a little of both - the large open space that dominates it provides a lovely respite from the bustle of Harborne, and the gardens that border it are well kept and a legacy of the park's Victorian roots. A great little park - much recommended!

Queens Park is one of Birmingham's best parks in my opinion, its very secluded and not very known…read moreabout and all the better for it! We don't have many great outdoor spaces in Harborne so its a great place for young children, teenagers and adults too. Its has a great open large space, people come here to play football, tennis (has 2 tennis courts), basketball (has a basketball court). Has a playground area for young children. Very popular with dog walkers, joggers and cyclists. Ive been here day and night and never had any trouble, the gardens are well kept and very pretty in every season. There is 2 car parks available on site which is free, space available for disabled vehicles too. A great little park!

If you are lucky enough to come to Bermuda, Horseshoe beach is one of those wonderful places you…read morewill never forget. The almost pink sand, the amazing weather (in the summer), beach volleyball and dark and stormies (ginger beer with rum) make the perfect mix to make your holiday the one of a lifetime. Getting around is most easy with a moped that can be rented at many places and after a 20 minute introduction, pretty much anyone can ride one! Make sure you get on one of the wreck snorkeling trips and explore the world of wrecks and fish 4 miles off the coast of Bermuda! Another nice detail: Bermuda does not inhabitate any poisonous animals or large spiders... so you can wonder around the island without fearing being bitten. Most people play with the thought of moving to Bermuda after only one day of being there so make sure you are working in the banking and insurance industry (re-insurance is Bermuda's biggest business) or the NHS (yes, Bermuda is still a British Colony) and you won't be disappointed. I will definetely re-think my choice of career....

I decided to take my son and niece to Rock Up last Saturday afternoon to see what all of the hype…read moreis about. As my son is a little young for the actual climbing we let them loose in the soft play area. On first impressions, I really like this venue. It seems to have something for everyone. There are lots of climbing walls/activities that appeal to all ages up to adulthood. The pre-schoolers can get their fill in the soft play maze, which is a great size as it is not so big that your child can get lost. Unlike, many of these type of attractions the café sold half decent food. The coffee was easily drinkable and they offer a varied menu including paninis, pizza, kids meals, pasta, cakes, fruit and more. To drink they have the usual hot drinks, including Mocha, plus cold favourites including milkshakes and fresh fruit smoothies (blended on site upon ordering). My only complaint was that all of the staff were very young and clearly inexperienced. While there I made a number of very basic requests which were met with blank gazes, or else took at least three members of staff to answer. There was also quite a long wait for the simplest of items from the menu.

I play badminton, use the gym and do circuit training here…read more It doesn't have the biggest indoor facilities in the world but the hall is a good size, it's not cramped and the gym is pretty decent. There's also plenty of room for the circuits in the aerobics room. (I do Claire's circuits - you do the same if you want to get trained hard!) There's loads of outdoor space. There's the Wolverhampton indoor football training facility, outdoor grass football pitches, outdoor astro football pitches, tennis courts, cycle track, running track and a field in the middle of that for everything else! There's probably a lot more that I'm forgetting, too! No swimming pool though. Plenty of places to park.

Okay, so it's cheap. Probably one of the cheapest gyms I've known for what you get. I wouldn't go…read moreas far to say 'value for money' as like the other reviewers say it's got a lot of faults. I don't use every piece of equipment on there. I'll be honest I mainly just use the cardio machines on my way home. So with that in mind here I what I've found. The entrance into what appears to be an abandoned part of BHS store (but isn't) can put you off at first. There is access up via stairs and two elevators, the door mechanism has some bizarre Futurama like hover tube designed to stop people sneaking in on your pass purely because they cannot fit inside it with you but I'm sure it can be done. The place has no personality, greys and blues do not look modern in this case just very out of date and a tiny bit draining. Compared to the vibrant reds, purples and the orange gym around the corner it could do with a face lift. The treadmills seem to suffer the most of faults, with them starting off and then just stopping like your punched that red emergency button. I went at what I'd think to be one of the peak times yesterday at about 5pm and I had no problem getting equipment either for which I was surprised. The view you get does sort of make up for it, the floor to ceiling windows does prevent the hobbit feeling I got in my last gym which had no windows at all and was fondly(?) nicknamed the bat cave. To get this type of gym in my area e.g 24 hour I'd be paying £30+ a month so I put up with its faults, if I was a fitness aficionado I probably wouldn't go here though. Suggestions to The Gym: - Fix your equipment The water fountain could be colder A new colour scheme? Add more of that electric blue or something.

I have been a member of the Gym for few months now. it was my next option after my previous gym…read moredecided to relocate to Solihull. The positives: - Centrally located ( City centre) - Affordable ( for a student like myself) - more than enough machines - accessible 24hrs, meaning I can hit the gym when I can't sleep :) - always kept clean by staff - friendly staff The negatives: - not very suitable for body builders - could be too crowded sometimes (depending on the time of the day) - some of the popular machines are no more in very good form Overall, if you want somewhere cheap, quality and central, this is for you.but if you are a body builder, you might want to try somewhere more suitable.

It's a fun atmosphere and something to do for all ages, although there is one hole that I wouldn't want to visit as a family. (X rated)
