Top 24 things to do and attractions in Rugby

Great place to visit with children. Lots of interactive exhibitions, places for crafts, and children play area. It has far exceeded my expectations

I have been to the Gallery for a workshop on cyanotype: simply splendid

Its a nice quiet and friendly pleasant place to look at the arts created, and to talk to nice staff, Kuds area is good for the children too.

Nice environment where it is not too cold and they have free wifi and a working space where you can do some work on their computers or on your own laptop.

Volunteering at a 'witches hat' making morning in half term. Good kit, reasonable plan, and the kids seemed to have a great time, producing their own hat. The three in the photos were made by children aged 3, 4 and 6 - pretty amazing !! It's a very small museum,but reasonably sized Gallery spaces, and the collection has some good stuff.

A small free to enter museum adjacent to library. We have learnt that there was once a Roman village called Tripontium 4 miles from Rugby. **Local knowledge level up.🤗** For the size of the museum, it took us about 30minutes to view all the arts and displays. And this is us, taking our time. There are also space for crafts and drawings at the foyer.

Great place for art and artefacts. The staff that work there are friendly and helpful.

Love this park! Super peaceful, lots of trees and shade, and a perfect spot to chill or read. There’s a nice walking path, and lots of flower all year around. Not too crowded, even on weekends.

This is a bonus in Rugby. There are toilets on the left as you enter. The kids play park is always busy and there's tennis courts at the other side of the park. So many beautiful trees of all ages on the easy pathway. The flowers are well kept and it's such a peaceful place if you want to hear the birds or just sit and take in the beauty of the place. There's even a small cafe but it seems the people dont want to leave there 😂 so it must have some good choices.

Such a "Beautiful" park. Very clean and tidy. The Grandchildren loved the BUTTERFLY TRAIL and of course the play area. Lots of seating around. No time to visit tea & coffee shop. Next time xx Ps: the history of the park is very interesting.

Just a beautiful oasis in Rugby. Visit it. Enjoy it and leave it tidy..so much work goes into it making it as beautiful as it is. And support Hatty Bakewells whilst you are there too!

I love this park. Every time I visit I am impressed with how well it is maintained and looked after. Usually very little litter and always a lot of people visiting for different reasons. Parents with children visit the play areas and older kids play ball and socialise. The flowers are seasonal and the gardens carefully crafted. The lawns and hedges are well maintained and even the squirrels are happy. I like the statues as thry are all relevant to the history of Rugby.

Caldecott Park seems to be a fantastic destination and luckily it's near the city center. I recently had the pleasure of visiting, and it left a lasting impression. The park's charm lies in its ability to offer an enjoyable walking experience throughout the year. Whether it's spring blossoms, summer picnics, autumn colors, or winter strolls, Caldecott Park is a cool place to be in any season.

Love visiting. Footpaths take you round the park, with a varied and relaxed view. Gardens are immaculate. The wooded areas display beautiful seasonal displays of snow drops, crocuses and daffodils. A refreshing and envigorating place to take a break. Plenty of benches and little nooks among the gardens and lawns to sit and read.

We visited to watch Aladin and the performance was simply fantastic a mix of the traditional Aladin story with modern dance and music. You definitely must go to their pantomime next year.

The performance of Come From Away was beyond expectations. I have seen three professional performances (2 in the West End and 1 in Birmingham). I have also visited Gander and met Derm, the mayor of Appleton, featured in the musical. The performance was fabulous. Well done.

Great production of Cinderella, very funny, with plenty of auctions interaction. Nice touch being able to meet the cast in the bar afterwards.

Fantastic little theatre! Have been here a few times now to see different productions, and I'm so impressed. The Christmas Carol was amazing! The cast, the costumes, the staging, the specials effects, everything felt like something you would expect in West End! Highly recommend!

What a wonderful place, an amazing experience, this delightful theatre is like all theatres should be. Its an old fashioned feeling with a modern professional twist. I have seen numerous shows here and the actors and backstage crew are consistently achieving high standards..not forgetting the wealth of wonderful directors. Thank you

Just watched 'Streetcar named Desire'. Amazing cast, powerful and heartbreaking. Everyone in it was incredible. Lovely theatre and friendly staff.

Amazing show! The cast is so good. The new bar is also so nice.

This interesting and entertaining guided tour is 'a must' for all fans of rugby and history. From a look round the Museum tucked away, finding out about 'the island' and the story behind it, to stepping foot on The Close (admittedly I have been done that before many a time, but there is still something about it - rugby fans come from across the globe just to do that), to seeing the amazing Chapel and Memorial Chapel, the Quad and one of the historic classrooms; it all makes for two hours or so well-spent. Julie was the perfect tour guide being thoroughly engaging and entertaining, and she clearly loves what she does and has a passion for the School. Just quite how she remembers all that information (?) must take some doing...it all adds to the experience. Needless to say, a tour of Rugby School comes highly recommended.

Thoroughly enjoyed the rugby school tour with our guide Julie. She was informative, extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and full of interesting stories and anecdotes. I brought my family and we all really enjoyed it. The school is incredible and full of history, and getting a chance to see the chapel, classroom and museum was fabulous. I highly recommend.

TOUR......the tour was very interesting and informative. Julie, our guide was lovely. She was kind, patient and considerate to all our needs. Would recommend this tour to anyone interested in the history of Rugby (the ciry) and the school. The shop was mainly for Rugby students, although there was a few items for the public to purchase.

I have bought a number of similar items from the Rugby School shop in 2017- mainly from the 450th Anniversary range. Each time my orders have been dealt with friendliness , courtesy and efficiency by the ladies there. As an O.R I have also been also able to reflect on past times in conversations over the telephone, and those have always brought back personal memories and feelings for the Almer Mater. Thank you ladies- Floreat Rugbeia !

Great school shop

Rugby Open market is an amazing place on a Friday and Saturday. Fresh fruits vegetables around display from local sellers and also pet foods watches clothes and Mikes flower shop 💐🌷🌻is a fantastic place for potted plants and bouquets. My weekly staple ar ethe fruits and vegetables and this Indian Vegetarian food stall which has the best veg/ vegan food selection

Rugby Market is a bustling and vibrant indoor market located in the heart of Rugby, UK. The market offers a range of goods and services, including fresh produce, meat, fish, baked goods, clothing, and more. The market is well-designed and easy to navigate, with a variety of stalls offering a diverse range of products. The prices are reasonable, and the quality of the products is generally high. The market is also well-known for its friendly and welcoming atmosphere, with vendors often happy to chat with customers and provide recommendations. However, the market can become quite crowded during peak hours, which can make it difficult to navigate and lead to longer wait times at popular stalls. Additionally, some of the stalls may not accept card payments, so it is important to bring cash. Overall, Rugby Market is a great destination for those looking for a unique and authentic shopping experience in the heart of Rugby.

Hope this market keeps going , sells all sorts from veg and flowers to clothes

Every Friday and Saturday..I like the fruits and vegetables stall. Good price and great products.

Rugby Market blink and youll miss it lol I vegetable stall a watch man replacing watch batteries a burger van and a jacket potatoes man the charity shop and the bottom of town was busier oh sorry I forgot to mention the man selling flowers I would strongly recommend the market if you don't want to spend any money

A shadow of it's former self, since being crammed into the clock tower area. Which had a negative impact on people's attitudes to visiting the town centre. Sadly there's only a few stalls left selling not very much. It can be very crowded in the area on Market day as the market gets right in the way of anyone who wants to get by or visit other shops... Watch out for pickpocketers! There's a reasonably priced clothing stall which sells workwear that's probably the market's highlight.

Compared to the Rugby Market of Old there are very few stalls. However the ones in attendance do brisk business and there is a good selection of items on offer my favourites are. The gents clothing stall, The veg stall, and The watch repair/battery replacement stall All of which are great value and service is always with a smile and a bit of banta.

Love this Beautiful Church, they do a brilliant service on a Wednesday, my daughter enjoys it too. There is a cafe inside the church with lovely staff which we go to before the service.

A fabulous building with a pleasant and quiet interior, worth visiting at least once if you are just passing through the city.

I recently went to the lunch time recitals on a Tuesday. They vary each week and start at 1 p. m. Lasting 30 to 40 minutes. They are free but donations are welcome. The church is surprisingly cosy and warm. I haven't used the cafe yet, but the coffee smells good.

An impressive building . I haven't been to a service there in years , but in the early hours of 22nd October 2005 , I became a born again Christian there , at an outreach called Refresh ! Nearly twenty years later , I'm still loving the Lord Jesus ❤️✝️🙏🏻 I now live in Scotland, God called me to move here in 2010

Brilliant town church with small cafe and convenience. Come for a prayer, come for a coffee, come for a rest.

Great little Coffee shop open daily except during some services. Great to drop in with very fair prices. Lovely history of the Church (St Andrews) in RugbyTown Centre too.

Fantastic church. Gothic styled and magnificent!!

Disgraceful behaviour. Cancelled a show 4 days before the show, THEY did not even bother to notify anyone, had to happen across it via a video on Facebook from Katie Hopkins. Benn is owned by the Council, who dont like free speech in case theres a hurty word or something someone doesnt like, to keep their voter demographic they wont let a comedy show go on. So now I have no way of getting back non refundable train tickets and hotel rooms. I am over £100 out of pocket and they dont even have the decency to contact people who have bought tickets. Have emailed the CEO of the Council, who run this venue and the venue itself and they dont have the decency to respond.

Why cancel gigs that don't align with your woke policies. As for the CI who refused to contact someone back...... shameful behaviour. Stop cancelling gigs when they've been paid for in good faith. I hope other organisations now fully boycott Rugby and your venue.

Made arrangements in order to see the great Katie Hopkins again and to be notified it was going to be cancelled 4 days before the show is Ludacris! Lost a great deal amount of time and money in the process. Now if you have a problem with Katie that's on you but the mere fact it sold out again tells you you are the minority in cancelling her! SHAME ON RUGBY COUNTY COUNCIL

So many good events at the Benn Hall. Elo experience was fantastic. Another good tribute,Robbie Williams,he looked and sounded like him.

Nice middle of the road venue - recommended for a budget friendly doo 👍

Not very good is it cancelling a show because of politics. Would it be different if it was a left wing venue?

Appalling to accept 480 paying guests to watch Katie Hopkins on her sell out tour and then 4 days before the event you cancel . You have lost all the revenue from bar sales as well . Shame on you

Lovely large soft play area. Many of the joining parts of the soft play could do with a hoover to improve cleanliness. Lots of seating and a good price for me and my 10 month old. However i have never been so cold in a children’s soft play in my life. Considering I was running round after my little one, we were both freezing. To the point where people were keeping their coats on which is ridiculous. Considering there were newborn babies there, this needs to be seriously improved. We left after 45 mins to go and get warm in a cafe.

I’ve been coming here since this was converted into a softplay and bowling alley/bar. I absolutely love it. The kids absolutely love it and it’s such a nice addition to the centre.

This is a good softplay for kids to spend couple of hours. Be pre-warned, some of the staffs are not courteous ( border rude). Do not let it spoil A good time with the kids!

A decent soft play. Good toddler areas and I especially like the suction tubes for the soft balls. Food options are fairly standard with panini's, jacket potatoes, sandwiches, kids meals etc. Annoyingly I thought chips were included with panini's so forgot to order any, when the meal came I asked if I could add these as a side order but the staff were very funny about this and charged it as a separate portion rather than a side. Bit disappointed they quibbled over 60p given I spent about £35 at the soft play. That being said i would still recommend it for the soft play itself.

Wonderful soft play area to take kids up to 12 years old. Separate areas for 0-4 years. Snacks and drinks available for purchase. Ordered a delicious cafe mocha.

We visited here with our 3 and 5 year old on route to our holiday. There's some harsh reviews on here. We found it great. Food was perfectly fine, generous portions, came out hot and no issues. It's wasn't packed but maybe because it wasn't school holidays yet? It was slightly chilly when we got there but could've just been we'd come from a hot car?! There's usual bits for the kids, I must say the ball shooter bit is good fun. Even for the adults. Toilets are a tad run down but perfectly functional. If we were local, I could see us going to this place fairly regularly. Don't be put of my some of the harsh reviews.

Sorry for the earlier review, my daughter who's 2 had grabbed my phone off me and I didn't know she had done this. We have been a few times though and love your soft play. Lots to do and especially the sensory stuff for smaller ones and the foam balls you can fire at eachother.

Tucked away in Newbold estate, panoramic views from highest hill, is lovely down by the water, flat level perimeter can be done in 15mins, & given all the rain, not too muddy. A cold January dusk, so a quick walk today. Can access Oxford canal & get to Eliots Field Retail, which has nearest facilities: food & toilets.

Nice find for a little walk but take good boots as it's very muddy! It's about a mile walk around and there's some steep steps. Carpark is free which is a bonus.

Filled with water in the middle, Newbold Quarry Park provides a wholesome place for family to spend quality time, taking a walk, mild hike or bicycling through the rolling elevations. Few internal paths are flooded most of the year, but there are plenty other paths to continue your adventure. Bring a light snack, and continue to the Oxford Canal Walk either towards Elliot's Field or onwards.

We visited just after a bad spell of rain so some of the paths weren't accessible, but still a really nice peaceful walk :)

Quiet with some hills walking around is serenity and great overlooking points to picnic or blaze up

Nice natural place, you can walking around the lake.

Very sad to see a horrible metal fence up to stop the lovely walk around the lake. Probably due to some sort of subsidence, but it would have been nice to see something less ugly and a reason why. I hope this is temporary while an alternative is sought and a walk around the lake can be resumed.

Cool

(Translated by Google) Quiet very clean parking lot (Original) Тихий очен чистый паркинг снап

Fantastic shopping area. Loads of food places available. Although wonderful and practical, these types of places have murdered the high streets. Progress 🤔

Good chap Jon for sorting out the issue with phones not working at Homesense Rugby. Jon has visited the store in person and arranged for Homesense to call me. This has saved me a lot of time today. Jon is a get things done chap and deserves credit for his professional and efficient approach to resolving this issue. Many thanks indeed Jon 🙂

A really nice retail park to visit plenty of selection of shops. And cafes along with places to eat. Alot of top brands in one area. Plenty of parking along with disabled parking as well.

Nice decent size retail park located near Rugby city centre. Loads of free parking spaces. Good variety of shops and few places to eat. Free toilets available.

We visited here en route to Milton Keynes. It’s a modern complex with a variety of shops and restaurants. There seemed to be a lot of parking available but we walked down from our hotel in Rugby and it’s very pedestrianised. The TK Maxx is really good here.

Great location for many retail shops, plenty of parking and good options to have a quick bite to eat.

Great shop's and few good places to eat,free parking unlike Coventry city centre,and only 15 minutes from our home.

I am a member of another centre of the Better group so visited this one as a one off. The pool is lovely. Perfect temperature, nice and big with great piped music (easy listening) The showers were hot and clean, the changing cubicles clean. The pool seemed clean but once in, it looked liked the sides need a good scrub. Parking is plentiful and free for 3 hours but you have to enter your reg details at reception. The staff were friendly and helpful. Didn't visit gym so can't comment

Decent sized softplay area. Reasonable in price too. Customer service at the desk wasn't the most hospitable. Free parking for 3 hours was a nice to have.

After 11 years member at TQDJC , Very bad experience not recommended to join . It has changed to a profitable parking business on private gym land instead of being free for members all over uk branches , unheard of parking charges for members at any gym but TQDJC . TQDJC aims to collect unjustly money from members breaching uk GDPR ( 2018 law) passing on personal data including private mobile number to the parking compony use it to reach me . The parking compony got my mobile and out of date address from the gym record . The DVLA has updated address over a year ago but not mobile number or indeed anywhere else as the office claimed. Should change name to “ worse “ QDJC not “ better “ . It is a shame the instructors who running the classes are exceptional , the office staff are worse ever to deal with very manipulative , unprofessional and dishonest practices , this matter will be escalated to ( ICO)

Took our grandchildren to a lesson on the climbing wall, all four children thoroughly enjoyed the lessons. It is such a great shame that we don't live in Rugby or we would definitely be booking lessons there !!!

Very clean, plenty of amenities, staff very friendly & helpful. Plenty of parking. Visited specifically for the children's soft play area, it's one of the best soft plays we've been too, only reason I've knocked one star off is that the under 3's bit could do with being a bit bigger but the variety of activities in it were spot on.

Very large soft play for young kids, extremely quiet the day we went.

Terrible Customer Treatment – Stay Away! I used to be a regular paying customer at Queens Diamond Jubilee Centre, but after my recent experience, I will never set foot there again. They’ve chosen to work with a predatory parking company that seems to exist solely to fine honest customers. I received a parking fine in the mail despite being a customer, and the appeal process was a joke. They asked me to send proof via post, which I did, using first-class postage. Conveniently, they claim to have never received it and are now charging me £100 instead of £60. It’s outrageous that management allows these vultures to prey on hard-working people like this. To the decision-makers: do you sleep well knowing you’re treating your customers like this? Absolute scum. Avoid this place if you value your time and money!

We visited a few weeks ago for the "Mini Explorers" workshop. It was an okay play session for £2.50 but there wasn't much to do and my son soon got bored. The staff were very helpful, and told me about the play village on the lower floor that I wouldn't have known about otherwise! That was lovely and I couldn't believe it was free. Everywhere was clean, and the staff were lovely. The lady on reception even gave my son a sticker. It was great having free parking too. This was our first visit and we would definitely come back. Lovely morning out.

Such a wonderful and friendly place. More than one delight in a beautiful airy modern building. The Rugby Council has definitely got it right 👍🏽 This houses the library, the Rugby museum at the first floor and local Artist exhibition on the top floor. All of this is free entry. Another amazing feature is the newly opened cafeteria "Pickle and Pie 🥧" all the food is made in house by Lisa. Fell in love with the scotch eggs and potato, celery and soft blue cheese pie 🥧 so comforting and delicious. Open 10 to 3pm Monday to Saturday 👏🏽

Went to the library to get documents printed off. Very helpful staff. The library had a light and friendly atmosphere. There is a small cafe in the centre, reasonably priced and good food and strong coffee. Will definitely go again as there is still the museum to visit.

Nice and kind staff we'll be welcoming you!

Not a lot to look at lift very juddery not at all nice

Visited for rhyme time today. Lovely atmosphere and staff were great. Well worth a visit if you have a little.one between 0 and 2 years of age. It's free to attend and you do need to book. Wednesdays 9.30am and 11.00am and Fridays at 11.00am

Very informative place to visit. Plenty to look at and nicely set out.

Beautiful place. Only 4 stars as no toilets. Enclosed area to let dogs off if their recall isn't great. Picnic area. Woods, open fields, disused canal 1 side and wetland area the other with the park in the middle. Great to explore for kids. Xx

Lovely open space, good for the dogs too on the exercise area. Bit muddy at this time of year as you'd expect but not terrible in walking boots. Going to be lovely in the summer!! Update June 2024: it is indeed lovely in the summer! Only a few muddy spots in dips in the path - easily stepped over or around. Lots of greenery and wildlife.

I wanted to update my post as my last post was done in the summer months I have been here several times and is one of my favourite places to visit such a beautiful place lots of nature in the summer months it's the most enjoyable walk but I find as a person who has walking problems I find it a struggle pushing my walker or when or when using my mobility scooter on the paths are uneven in quite a few places and in the winter months it's so muddy and unsafe for people with disabilities to go and enjoy this it would be greatly appreciated by all that uses this to have paths put in and more bins also more benches for people to sit down the other thing I think it greatly needs is toilets maybe people could purchase a key for a small price to use them

Even though it is not too far from the M6 & you can hear some traffic in the distance, this is a beautiful little area. You do feel you are in the countryside as there are fields & woodland areas. It's lovely to hear the birds singing & enjoy a stroll.

DOGS SHOULD BE ON LEAD Swift Valley is a nice place for a stroll, many paths lead through it and around it. There is a field dedicated to Dog Exercise, but the rest of the land is grazing for cows and their calves and there is often a Bull in the filed. As with a lot in life, Swift Valley is ruined by other people. People that are either illiterate and can't read, imbeciles and can't understand or self important and they think signs don't apply to them. Walking through this morning to the large fields beyond, I saw a woman that had 3 large black dogs off lead and loose in the same field as the cows, bull and calves. She was taking photos of the dogs and letting them run all around the field completely out of control. I got beyond Swift Valley onto the bridle for half an hour and then headed back. As I walked back through Swift Valley, toward the carpark, there were 3 women all with dogs off lead and having a chat. Further in and another man, with a long haired dog off lead was leaving the field with the cows, bull and claves. As I approached the car park, Another man was heading toward the cows etc with yet another dog off lead, couldn't even be bothered to put it on lead in a car park, he had balls and toys ready to throw for the dog. Eventually, dogs will be banned altogether because the owner of the livestock has had enough. If and when they are, you'll have these moronic people, and those like them, to blame. FOLLOW THE SIGNS. KEEP YOUR DOGS ON THEIR LEAD. BE A BETTER DOG OWNER.

We walk here several times a week. Small but sufficient car park. Seperate dog field. Cows can be in any of 3 fields. Riverside too.

Swift Valley Country Park adjacent to Old Brownsover is a 59 acre (24 hectare) site managed by the Warwickshire Wildlife Trust on behalf of Rugby Borough Council, set to the north of Rugby's urban area. The reserve includes lowland neutral grassland with pronounced ridge and furrow, hedgerows, woodland and wetland adjacent to River Swift and a disused canal. A very dense bird population exists especially around the pools. Birds include lapwing, snipe and song thrush. Dragonflies and damselflies are abundant and in 2004 the small red-eyed damselfly was recorded here for the first time in Warwickshire. The first moth recording night produced over 60 species along with a healthy bat population.

Lovely museum well cared for by enthusiastic and knowledgeable volunteers, so many items exhibited you really need to walk round twice to take it all in, easy parking and to cap it all it's free

Lovely country museum with lots of 18th, 19th and 20th century tools and memorabilia. All the volunteers are extremely warm and friendly. Well worth a visit!

A fabulous almost hidden gem! So much to see and take in.

Great place to visit. Easy parking.

A lovely small country museum

Closed on arrival

Incredible

A Wonderful art venue for local artists ran and owned by the lovely Chris and Steve. A constantly changing exhibition area. Lovely Food and drink for sale and always a warm welcome.

Visited several times this year, enjoying watching the space coming together! Always lovely artwork and crafts on display, plus hands on things to try. Very friendly owners and the visiting artists are always happy to discuss their work. Lovely cake, coffee and bottled drinks (love the local cider). A quirky and interesting venue and a must visit destination (parking is very handy too, being very close to the multi storey car park). Looking forward to revisiting next year.

We only came across this place as a result of seeing the Mudlands at Cotesbach and wanted to see them again. Have been again today to show my friend. We had the most fabulous vegan lasagne..i am not vegan or vegetarian but know good home cooked food when i taste it. Just gutted to hear the lady making the meals..was her last day. A lovely lady and sellling to cheap as well. Will come again for a drink and to see whats on offer and hopefully some more music. A lovely garden out the back a little oasis in Rugby that you would never know was there. Use it or lose it 💞

This is a fabulous arts centre with a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. There is a great range of excellent quality artwork on show and for sale, made by local artists. If you like to support local and independent makers, then this is definitely for you. Keep an eye out for special events where you can meet the artists and watch them work. Sometimes you can even have a go yourself! The cafe sells delicious food and I can personally recommend the baked potatoes and cake! Cheap parking is in the multistorey next door.

Such a great asset to Rugby run by the most friendly people. Lots of local artists and makers on show with really interesting workshops and events. I had the most amazing soup last time I visited too. 100% recommend.

A former pub turned Arts Venue, supporting local artists to exhibit work, various events through the year. Demonstrations and opportunity to buy local art , from a broad range of artists. Jewellers, painters,ceramicists,illustrators, weavers and more. Licensed Cafe on site, and garden. As a local jeweller this venue opened in 2022 and has been amazing for networking and being able to sell and demonstrate my jewellery making. Looking forward to events in 2023

Wonderful arts venue. The owners, Chris and Steve, are so welcoming and the variety of art works and event opportunities are fab. Highly recommend multiple visits as the art on display changes regularly!

They've really tidied this place up, and now it's a lovely play area with a very bouncy floor! Could do with some more activities built in as they're quite spread out, but it's all very clean and well maintained.

This playing area contains a few outdated item but it looks always clean.

The new play area is great. Different things for different stages. Sand pit is great. Bouncy floor is fun too. Just need more benches

Brand new children's park area. The young children's area is surrounded by sand and the other pieces of equipment aren't suitable for small children apart from swings.

Kids had a great time. Rubber surface is quite something, everything works as it's quite new. Shame about beer empties and cigarette ends, people should know better.

Always been a great park for everyone, I think play area is more modern, but I'm to old for all that stuff. It's a great walk aswell 😊

Love the new play area and my 14mth old, 8yr old and 10 Yr old Grandaughters have used it since the first day it reopened!!

Very spacious area ideal for dog walkers, taking the kids to the park. Also good for chilling out with friends

We went to watch a Football game and the parking spaces were great, the park was clean and grass nicely cut. Paths were clean and easy to walk along. Do wish that owners keep Dogs on leads, as some have a Dog phobia and were always looking over their shoulder.

Great fun for kids. Amazing slide and sand pit. Child didn't want to leave and that says it all!

Good park and nice activities for kids.

A good place to take our 2 year old granddaughter. Would benefit with some toilets

Clean, good place for dogs and training facilities around the outside track for those of a more energetic nature. Zip wire and the like for the children. Football pitches.

Very big place, great for kids

Lovely wide open space with playground and gym equipment. It's great for dog walkers, a stroll, or flying drones when not busy.

Zipline and swings missing (hopefully for maintenance). Benches need to face into the main play area, otherwise it's quite painful contorting to watch your child!

Amazing place . Great for children. Very well maintained please keep it tgis way for all of us to enjoy .

Nice play area, but the grass was very long, making our feet wet, especially my granddaughters, and where are the toilets? Why do children's play areas have NO TOILETS!!!

One of our fave parks to go to in Rugby. So many varied play things with climbing frames and rockwalls, although the sandpit play thing needs fixing or replacing. Otherwise it's a great park for all ages.

Large area with lots to do. Nice setting. Good for just letting the kids loose and relaxing on the benches (If there's any free) or joining in if you've got the energy. Our grandlings' fave.

Excellent, well laid out play area. Well maintained. A pleasure to be in.

The Manchester Bee Monument was on display at Featherbed Lane during the Summer, constructed from all kinds of weapons. Impressive.

Frequently used park by local residents for dog walking, skatepark and children's playground. There are benches to sit on around the perimeter, goal posts for football practice. Dog bins emptied regularly. It's great that sections of grass have been left for insects and pollinators. Lovely bulb display in springtime.

Great place for the kids and dog walking. It's nice now they have taken the eye saw building down and you can see the good work that is being done to make the ground where it stood look good. My only gripe is that the teenagers use the park at night as a gathering place to smoke skunk weed and it stinks the neighbour how out. They need to take the tin mushroom down to stop this.

A good place to walk your dog's, there is a small play area for young children under supervision and a skateboard area aswell. They have recently demolished the changing room/ toilets as they were being abused by youths and rightly so.

Great skate park and ajoining playground for little ones. The main field is perfect for dog walkers and there's a nice walking/running path around the park.

Its local its part of my childhood , l have walked my dogs round there for 40 or more years . I loved the way the grasses were left to grow long this year .

Big open space pleasant area

It is beautiful and it's lovely to see children playing in the play area, its great for walking your dog, we don't live far from it and it's pretty much like being in the countryside. Highly recommended 👌

Great little park with plenty for most ages of children. My daughter particularly likes the low down wooden park, just a shame it's hidden from view and the teenagers hang around there, not doing anything wrong mind you, just intimidating for young children.

Local park very nice place to visit. Clean tidy and well maintained by the local council. Great football and basketball area. Exercise equipment and climbing ropes and sand pit.

Lovely play area, very new and modern. Only problem being modern toddler swings are of rubbish design, with only very short chains, that do not swing very far.

Good range of play equipment for kids of all ages, including outdoor gym for adults. Also basketball court, picnic area, some nice grassy areas and a special wildlife garden

Pleasant park, my grandkids love going there when they visit. Down side is there is no parking only outside of the local residents houses if there is a space.

A relatively new park with new modern play area with plenty to do for children, there is even exercise machines for adults, a nice attractive place to come with the kids to kill a bit of time

It's nice and historical place I love it 🥰

Handy to have locally, but would benefit from a freshen up.

Pure History

One of the best playgrounds in the Rugby area. There is lots to do here. My boys love to bring their bikes and balls here to play. The equipment is modern and lovely and the park is clearly enjoyed by many children. The I Play game is fun too.

Love a gentle stroll around. Great for kids in play areas and football pitch

Great scooter park. The boy loves it!

Very good skatepark, football pitch, running track, basketball court, reaction time game (Iplay) teens/kids park and toddler/babies park.

Large space but very under designed. Only a small play area despite the over all sign of the site. Separate enclosed area for younger children is a great positive. Having some things such as the zip line at the complete opposite end of the very large site makes it very annoying with children who want to go back and forth between different things.

Great park, good little area for young children specifically, but also large space for football or similar games, and a corner of the park dedicated to a skating area.
