"I have lived in Saughton all my life and have been coming to this park since I was a child. I have never seen it so alive. It's beautiful to see so much care and development in this area. The cafe is great. The skate park is always bustling with people. It's just such a lovely place to be."
"Quite a huge Park. Rose Garden was nice to watch. The entire garden lives with different roses. the view is wonderful. Lots of play area for kids . Overall, thumbs up"
"Love this place. The chance to see otters and Kingfishers is rare but magical. Some stunning colours at the moment with all of the Iris out in full bloom. Great place for our lurcher to run. Our grandson goes for the skatepark every time and will not want to leave every time.!"
"One of my favourite places in this park is the gardens. I love flowers, and we can find a variety of them from wild to tropical flowers and plants, and the colors are amazing. In the interior there is a fishbowl with lovely redfishes surrounded by floating plants. Apart of the garden, the coffee shop, playground, workout machines and other spaces meet your expectations of your waking experience. Highly recommended if you come to Edinburgh."
"Since I've moved into the area, this place has quickly become my oasis of peace, it's beautifully maintained, offers many things to do and see, you can relax inside in the garden of tranquility with Gandhi and Big Mother, hold the torch with Dreamer of Peace statue, use the public restroom, get a coffee and snack, feed squirrels, feed on sunshine and flowers and trees, observe birds at a nearby river stream, explore a herb garden, it truly is a gem amongst Edinburgh Parks and my place to go to when I wanna just sit, relax, unwind or read a good book."
