About this park
South Hill Park, located south of Bracknell town centre, is a large, attractive, and historic park that welcomes dog walkers. The grounds are open to the public every day of the year and feature beautifully landscaped gardens, serene lakes, and expansive woodlands surrounding a Grade II Listed mansion. Awarded the Green Flag for its quality, it's an ideal spot for activities like walking and exploring with your canine companion. Visitors can enjoy four new waymarked trails, which allow you to delve into the park's rich history and appreciate its natural beauty. These trails offer fabulous views across the north and south lakes to the mansion and an abundance of wildlife in the lakes, reedbeds, and woodlands. While specific dog rules aren't detailed, responsible dog ownership is expected as highlighted by the 'Paws in the Park' event, suggesting a dog-friendly environment. Parts of the 'Wilde Wander' trail are on unmade tracks and include steps, so be mindful of your dog's mobility. For amenities, the park provides toilet facilities and refreshments are available, making a longer visit comfortable. There is also a play area for children, ensuring entertainment for the whole family. The park is easily accessible, and detailed visitor information including directions and a postcode for Sat Nav users (RG12 7PA) is provided. South Hill Park is managed by Bracknell Forest Council and Bracknell Town Council, who also have a full-time manager and gardener on site ready to answer any questions. They encourage community involvement through weekly gardening groups. The park's commitment to maintaining its heritage and natural beauty makes it a wonderful place for both humans and their four-legged friends to enjoy the outdoors.
