Nice place for a walk and a picnic. Small forest near the town with a lots of paths. During the winter time very muddy so don’t forget your wellie boots. A bit disappointed with the parking tickets which are £2.60 (valid for 12 hours) but still worth to go.

We regularly take the dog for walks at the park. Very pleasant with cafe and toilet facilities. Cafe is expensive so we only go in for a coffee to warm up.

A haven of greenery close to Irchester town centre, this has plenty of green spaces, lots of trails through the trees and enough to entertain every member of the family. Great fun!

Set in very unique surroundings ,namely an old iron-ore quarry, this country park ticks many boxes for a fun or relaxing experience and I believe there is something for everyone. The fee for the visit is just the parking fee which costs just £2.60, well worth it! There is so much to see and do. There is an excellent adventure park for the kids catering for most ages and sizes. This area is safely fenced off from dogs, but has plenty of seating outside for parents to watch out for their kids and where they can look after their pets whilst the kids enjoy the apparatus. There is also a very good adventure park for older kids and adults and this is often used for team-building corporate events. All these facilities are next to amenities like toilets and wash areas, as well as the 'Quarryman Café' which sells very good quality food and homemade cakes/ice-creams. We have often enjoyed a good Sunday roast there, which is subject to availability throughout the year. The chef makes all the food on the premises and it really is a delight to sample. In the winter you can sit inside in comfort, but also it is really nice to sit outside in the summer. There are a variety of walks, the longest of which is about 2 miles, but there are plenty of shorter ones. Bikes are a good idea especially in the summer, as there are lots of interesting and challenging runs to try in the woods. I recommend wellington boots in the winter, as the ground can be a bit sticky. The terrain is easy in the main walking areas although in a wheelchair it may be a little difficult on the longer route. There is also a Railway museum which is open at weekends, but I would check with the park to see if it is open in the winter months. The park is aptly named 'Jurassic Park' and it certainly has that feel to it with lots to explore, and some interesting Dinosaur finds in parts of it. Picnic tables are provided in some areas and there are some open spaces to kick a ball around. You may also see some wood carving going on, as a local artist can sometimes be seen carving tree trunks with a chain saw. We love this park and visit it many times each year, always interested to see how the seasons are transforming it. A lovely day or afternoon out for many I feel.

Irchester park is 20 minutes from Northampton and 30 minutes from Milton Keynes, former ironstone quarry, Irchester narrow gauge railway museum here and 83 hectares of mixed woodland to roam in, plenty of open spaces and play areas for the children to let off steam, good walking and dog walking trails, Jungle Parc is located inside of Irchester country park with professionally trained instructors and all equipment supplied. We live about 10 mins away from here and love coming over for a walk around, several paths you can take, lots of photo opportunities too. There is a cafe, although we find it a bit expensive, everyone to their own. Pay and display is £2.60 you can park all day, If you park in the lower car park which is inside Irchester country park the gates close any time between 4pm/5pm or 7pm depending on time of year, but parking in the upper car park you do not have that worry as it is open all day every day. Cafe open every day except Christmas day.

Lovely country park, well looked after mostly by volunteers. Often see red kites and deer. Excellent play area also a cafe/restaurant which I've not tried so can't comment on. The annual Woodfest weekend is a real treat
