Refurb looks amazing. Lovely and quiet with 2 public toilets very close by. Great for both smaller children and older ones. A couple of single benches and one picnic table with a sail.
Chartwell Park
20 Herbert Road, Chartwell, Park 3210
Why these ages?
Description explicitly calls it 'notably toddler-friendly': infant swing, bowl rocker, in-ground trampoline, junior slide. Grandparent review: 'Perfectly safe for little ones with no hazard of bigger children' and 'far enough from the road that we can catch up with him.' Native gully setting with a small stream well beyond the play area (not adjacent). Herbert Road is quiet residential. Small scale caps tween appeal.
Access notes
The playground is built on an artificial grass surface and a reviewer explicitly calls the park wheelchair accessible, though another reviewer notes the play area sits below grade and can pool water after rain.

Equipment
Chartwell Park is a colourful playground in the Chartwell suburb of Hamilton, set in a native gully on Herbert Road with a walkway that runs through to Bankwood Road. The equipment range covers toddlers through to early primary, and the gully setting gives the visit a bush-walk feel that extends well beyond the play area.
