Gille­spie Park

About

Gille­spie Park, a se­cret sanc­tu­ary of green with­in busy Is­ling­ton, of­fers a wel­come es­cape for Lon­don­ers in the know. Don't let its com­pact size fool you; this park is packed with fea­tures for every­one. Kids will make a bee­line for the Chil­dren's Ad­ven­ture Play­ground, with its imag­i­na­tive play ar­eas (and a sep­a­rate spot just for tod­dlers!). Leashed pups can en­joy their own des­ig­nat­ed space to run free, while green-thumbed

vis­i­tors will love ex­plor­ing the com­mu­ni­ty gar­den, burst­ing with the ef­forts of lo­cal res­i­dents. Seek qui­et con­tem­pla­tion in the tran­quil Sen­so­ry Gar­den or test your nav­i­ga­tion skills in the whim­si­cal Maze Gar­den. Through­out the park, well-placed bench­es beck­on you to sit, re­lax, and soak up the live­ly at­mos­phere. Fam­i­lies, dog own­ers, and any­one crav­ing a dose of na­ture amidst the city will find some­thing to love about Gille­spie Park.
