Barshaw Park

Nice little park, the paths are all paved and wide, there is a small area designated to letting your dog off lead,The park is clean, but sign of wear are starting to be noticed, there is a walled garden, a nice place to sit in the peace and quiet while you contemplate life.There is a big pond, that is full of ducks and swansThere's a good cafe on site, that is worth a visitThere is plenty of parking and the view at the top of the hill gives you amazing view over paisley and towards the gleniffer braes, the hill is great in winter when it snows, its a popular for sledging,There is a miniature railway but I don't think it operates in winter only in late spring and summer,There is two large play grounds, one for the younger kids the other for older kids, the younger kids park is securely fenced off.There's also a bmx track but with signs of neglect, there is also a street style track that you can use to teach the kids how to use roads when on their bikes, but it also is neglected, but can still be used safelyThere is toilets on site, I'm not sure if they are always openThere is a bus stop right outside the park

Great park, plenty of parking, well spread out and safe to have dogs of lead. walled garden is beautiful all year round.

I come here at least twice a week with my guide dog so she can have her free running time and burn off her energy and have lots of good sniffsShe loves coming to the park , there is lots of space and it’s a lovely walk for us and she loves looking for squirrels tooOften see a lot of dog walkers here too

A lovely park with good parking access, a cafe and ice cream vendor. The pond is a good size and few circuits give a good workout, there is a peace garden run by volunteers that is quiet and provides a nice place to sit and enjoy the fresh air in peace and quiet.Another nice afternoon circling the pond and sitting in the sun.

Something for everyone in this public park, a children's play area, a pond, wildlife, woods, walled garden, small train station for children and a cafe.

Great for dog walks and families.For the former you have the dog run plus the wooded area which gives variety.For kids you have the play park and the train on a Saturday.Food is available via the Tearoom and other facilties.

Lovely park been going there on and of since I was a kid. Great for walks. Alot of dog walkers.

One of the first parks that we visited as a family after arriving in the UK and i have to say, it is beautiful! This is a vast open space with a small hill-like climb, a cycling area, a small pond with swans, a children's play area and an amazing walkway! We loved it and would recommend everyone to visit this beautiful place to just take a stroll and let your kids enjoy fresh air.

Beautiful well used park in Renfrewshire perfect for walking, taking the kids to the playpark, picnics and dog walking. There is a nice wee cafe too. The downside. I'm not sure who to be more annoyed at the little darlings that keep vandalising the toilets (apparently) or the council whose only response is to keep them closed rather than exploring other options - even paying toilets would be better than nothing. Do better.

The car park is an alright size but when we were there the park got busy at lunchtime and there weren't enough spaces due to how people parked. The toilets are beside the car park and in portacabins but there was only one working and there was no toilet roll in any of the cubicles. There is a food and drink place at the car park as well. There is a good selection of food on offer and ice cream as well just ignore the price list on the wall outside. The park has a great bike trail with plenty of jumps. There is also a training area for people learn about bike safety that's a really good size and well laid out. The kids play area is brilliant. It's very big and has lots of different things to play on. It is also split in to different age category. The exercise area has plenty of fitness equipment unfortunately some were broken but it was still good fun. The walk round the park is very easy and not strenuous and is a good place to take your dog for a walk. The walled garden are at the top of the park and it's got lots of seats and is nice and quiet.Nature corner is nothing like the picture you see. It's a building site is the only way to put it. Hopefully it's just temporary and will go back to the way it is in the picture. The pond is getting drained so is fenced off so can't walk around it. The model railway has a sign saying it is open in the summer only but doesn't give a date for when it's opening. There is good open spaces for a picnic or to play football, badminton etc but it on a hill.
