Blakers Park

Perfect park, especially an area for no dogs

Beatifull view! Even met the lorax he was blasting this dope song wich got stuck in my head for days lmao

Always beautiful in every season, great meeting point with beautifully kept flower borders, Blakers clock is just lovely no matter what time of day, for a local community park it has pretty much everything from the actual park, tennis courts, children's play area, cafe hut ..lovely to relax and look over to the seafront...proper community park

Lovely little park. Stopped off for a coffee and cake at the little kiosk ♡. Plenty of benches, a dog-free area, children's play area and tennis courts ♡

We love Blakers, it's a wonderful green space with fantastic views over the city as well as a newly refitted playground which the children love. There are facilities for toddlers right through to older kids so it keeps them entertained with a very large sandpit they enjoy digging and building with. The friends of Blakers park also recently raised funds to plant further trees which will add to the biodiversity and character of the park. The tennis courts have been resurfaced however they now appear to be locked, which is a shame for those who want to have a go. I assume there is a group you need to join. Above the playground is a gated dog-free zone with a single picnic bench. The top area of the park seems popular with dog walkers. There is rarely dog mess up there which is good. Next door is the Cleveland pub too which is a great venue for a drink or food if you're visiting. There are a couple of issues, one is the toilet facilities are rarely open which is difficult when you have little ones. The playground is sometimes damaged and can take a while to repair. It also gets very busy in term times after school if it's a nice day, which is great if you like to socialise, but it would be pretty overwhelming for anyone whose kids find that hard. Overall great park with good views and an excellent playground. Well worth a visit.
