Over the road from us so we can skip the hectic traffic on hot days because that I would say is the only real let down here. Loads of space for the kids to run around and play football, lovely little cafe and even have a little market on Saturdays

This is an excellent park located in south Dublin city with easy access from the M50 too.The park has a bunch of amenities including sports facilities, toilets, coffee shops and the DSMEE miniature railway. There are beautiful walks through the wooded areas, and lots of places to sit and relax too.The park has 2 car parks, and there are also connections with the local buses.Well worth a visit, for both Dublin residents and also tourists alike.

Beautiful large inner-city park, with many tarmac paths and gravel trails through small wooded areas. Has a food market on Sat am. Parkrun 5k was also fun.

Really nice spacious park. Tennis courts, football pitches and a lovely childrens playground. The car parks tend to fill up quickly so arrive as early as possible. Also leave extra time to find your way around as it is a huge park.

Extensive south Dublin park thats used for a variety of recreational activities. Its also the start of the Wicklow Way and boasts some beautiful tree hugged paths that wind their way around its many stylized water features. The courtyard of the old country house is now used by a number of artisan sellers and there are two coffee shops.

So much to do here. I especially loved the aviary in the walled garden. You can really see how well the birds are kept here and how happy they are.Love the Saturday markets - the donuts were out of this world.

Concert review. Gig was great but this venue is just not built for the volume of people. Awful experience. Music saved it even though I missed some of that.

Was here for Guns N Roses and so I didnt really visit as a park, but as a music venue it was great. It had rained for a week leading up to the gig so I had images of it being a huge swamp, but I was very surprised that it wasnt the case. It was totally dry. I have been to many outdoor music events and this is up there with some of the best. Excellent sound quality and the screens helped for those that didnt want to get too close. Plenty of toilets, refreshments and food stalls. Getting home was a different story, but I wouldnt take that away from what a great venue this was.

Went here for the GreenDay concert. Really well organised. Bought the return ticket for the bus from Customs house. Walked straight into one of the long line of buses. Dropped off at the head of the queue and the same long line of buses waiting for us as the concert finished. Security was quick and efficient and there is loads of food cabins inside ( there is an initial food area where everyone queues but walk past that over the river into the main arena as there is even more food in there

Excellent gig and service from all staff involved. Guns and Roses were excellent and facility’s were clean and food was great. Normal public Bus service got us to and from the gig no issue. Great night with good weather too.

What a great venue for music coming from California myself. I would say this is better than some of the venues Ive been to out there. The lines for concessions and restrooms were not a bother at all, Everything moved fast and seamless. Very safe with the security and all in all a great experience...

Brilliant day out for kids and adults alike. We love it. The park is huge. There are 2 playgrounds, one big and one small. A tennis area, some shops, a market there on the weekend I think. A lake. Plenty of green space. A dog park. Forest trails. And plenty more Im sure.

Justifiably popular park. Nice walks suitable for all ages and plenty of space to run and play. Shame well behaved dogs have to be on a lead all the time even in the outer wooded areas. There is a dog park but our smallish, rather timid dog cannot cope with the big dogs running and bouncing whereas she is very happy to trot alongside us sniffing in the undergrowth. Can get VERY busy in car park and cafés at weekends

Lovely park which is well maintained and has numerous different amenities including a full kids playground, outdoor adult exercise equipment, coffee shop and when in use the best thing Ive seen in a park a mini railway track. The park itself is huge and has 2 car parks one that is huge and one that is average.

It is a big park. The main playground area has a public toilet (not many parks have this luxury). There is a nice cafe to grab a snack and coffee. Beside the garden with peacocks and other flying beauties there is a restaurant where you can sit inside or outside. There is a food fair on Sunday with yummy treats. The park itself is a great place to run, walk, and cycle (there are some pedestrian areas only). There is a fairy garden too.

Has a good children playground inside with lot of play activities for them. Can get bit crowded on a weekend and if the weather is good. You need to enter Marlay Park from the College Road Car Park side for near access to the kids playground. Parking place is big and free. I love to go there as my kids enjoys a lot there

Great place for walk, picnic. Lovely, spacious and tidy park. There is public toilet beside kid playground, and another one just beside the castle.I think not a good idea for cycling because some areas in the park are not permitted.

Lovely park to bring the family to. There are open green areas and enclosed woodlands. For me the best part is how well maintained and clean it is, even with all the dog walkers (well done to them for being so responsible). Also seems like a great area to get in some exercise.Just be careful when sitting on some of the benches along the walk way - the birds live above them if you know what I mean...

Urban Jungle - thats it! Located in convinient Sandyford area - Dublins south-side suburbs (best way from center - tram / green line, or Dublin Bus), park is ideal for family visits with small children. In amid there is a huge playground for a kuds, and a lots of green pitches for football, rugby or other field sports. There is very decent coffee place with nice selection of pastries on site. If you are looking for family picnic, two large supermarkts are just across the street. Youll find also small botanical garden with several types of caged birds too. Very convinient, with long walk paths, lakes and sport terrains.
