Reviews of Thompson Park
"Really nice place to walk and rest. Wildlife is lovely. Loads of squirrels and birds flying around. Really clean and neat too. No rubbish or overflowing bins. The park is definitely taken cared of as the cleanliness of it proves that. It has loads to offer and see. Won't get bored and can easily go back to discover something that was missed the last time. The Canadian geese are really friendly too. Also no dogs. Even if they are on leads, you still can not bring them into here."
"Big, nice and clean park. There is a lake, a playground, paddling pool and a little train. Lots to do for all ages. Highly recommended."
"Lovely park with great facilities well kept and clean. Boating lake fun, great sandpit and playground. Paddling pool empty but everything else open. £2 to park all day, but can only be paid for by mobile phone. I have no data, but luckily the wife did or couldn't use carpark. Free drinking water fountain too!"
"Loved this place since I was a child, we went there for the May Bank Holiday the rides are good for children under 5 , the boats are for everyone, so is the park & the trains, it's always a nice day out with the family at Thompson park."
"An idealic place to relax and feel consumed by the nature. Great for the kids, park paddling pool and miniature railway! My kids loved the mini train when they were little. The boating lake is fabulous and I've done a paddle board taster on It! It's a clean park, not a bit of litter which is beautiful- no dogs or bikes either. On street parking to it, walking distance from the bus station or even the Burnley barracks train station."
