Decent set up, large playground. Partially shaded, even around midday. Bathrooms close by. The one star reviewer mistook the weir as a disappointing waterfall.. strange to expect a decent waterfall given no hills nearby. Also entirely irrelevant given theyre reviewing a playground some distance from the weir 🤷♂️
