More than 25,000 people visit the park each year, many to enjoy functions in the Pavilion or picnics in the Philosopher’s Garden, which is a dog-free area.

The outstanding fountain is used as a large planter. It was unveiled in the Pleasure Grounds in 1909 and is made from 50 tonnes of Lamorna granite.

The original eastern section of the park preserves much of its 19th and 20th century landscaping with well-maintained bedding displays, serpentine walks, perimeter shrub beds, mature silver birches, plane trees and an attractive area of mixed tree planting. The park also has an active Friends group.
