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....

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!

We don't have many great outdoor spaces in Harborne so its a great place for young children, teenagers and adults too.

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!

Great well conserved park…read more This is basically a large man made resevoir, underneath which is a village that was covered over with water when they made the resevoir. Great place for canoing and other water Sports. Many people hire cycles out or bring there own to go around the water, it quite a ride but makes a nice day out. Also great for walks, feeding the ducks, there is also a marina area and in the summer there are boat trips. Food is expensive so better to bring a picnic or packed lunch
