Darnley Oval - Gordon (NSW)

5 /5 Jong: Nice view and breeze

4 /5 Scott Kay: Best flying fox that both a 3.5 to and a 36yo can use with safety and fun. Older style playground equipment is fine. Well be back

4 /5 Oliver Descoeudres: Nice oval, with a cricket pitch / goal posts (depending on the season) and a small playground including a flying fox. Theres a bush track that runs behind the oval (from the end of Mt Ida Street to Warandoo St) thats suitable for mountain bikes.

5 /5 Adam Smith: Tucked away in leafy Gordon, this oval is situated between suburban residences and bushland. Access is easy and there is easy entry for Prams and mobility devices. Street parking is available in close proximity along a leafy residential street. The park starts with some bench seating along the top in close proximity to a zipline and play ground. The playground is relatively small (with a slide, swing and a couple of other items of equipment). There could be more playground equipment here to cater for a larger age group of children. There are public toilets in close proximity along the side of the oval. One minor let down is there are no bbq facilities. The oval enables a couple of basic playing fields which is marked out for soccer with soccer goals in place in the winter. It can easily be converted for cricket in the summer or other ball sports in the winter. Overall a great little multi use space.

4 /5 Dimitri stangl: Our local little playground. Large oval where competitive helicopter parents send their little ones into battle. Only downside, the oval is also a dog park, and there is an unfenced playground as well. There are signs that no dogs are allowed on the playground. The problem is, the dogs can read English, and dog owners are not among the higher IQ spheres, or known for their consideration of others. Meaning, dogs do run into the playground, followed by the owner saying something like " he never did this before".
