St. Leonards Gardens

Lovely hilly park with plenty of wavy paths to walk round. Beautiful specimen of trees, bushes and flowers. You may play with your kids or dogs. A lovely pond with lovely tiny birds, ducks, seagulls and sometimes even cormorant. Nice spaces for chilling, picnics, etc. Also flower beds are just lovely.

Testing out for a new health walk. we are investigating the possibility of anew walk without many hills and have submitted our findings to ESCC for acceptance. The walk including St Leonard's Gardens is wonderful but wish they would cut the pond weeds other than that it's a wonderful area to visit.

Cozy, quiet, relief, well-kept small park with a pond.

A beautiful little oasis of trees, pond, grass, well maintained flower and shrub beds, it is a peaceful, tranquil place to sit and enjoy the birds singing and the wind whispering through the trees. It is part of the original Decimus Burton design that included the hotel and seafront.

Today, Saturday 16/5/21 the Sun behind us adding sparkle and intensity or brightness to our forward views. Can you walk alongside us if you pause a moment with each photo to share our delight with each view?Today, Friday, 15/5/21 , after walking along the golden pebbled seashore of St leonards on Sea, and pausing at an art gallery, it was bright and sunny between the showers, as I walked again upward through these lovely gardens. Spring is bringing flowers to bloom, the grass and leaves are bright green and calming to my mind. From the shore the garden paths rise steeply sometimes stepped adding exercise to my garden pleasure.Earlier reviewA former quarry for the stones used to build local housing on a large scale...is now a beautiful short steep valley garden with paved paths which can have steep gradients. This February 21, the quite large which hazel bushes were in full delicate bloom on their unleavened branches. Concealed from most travel routes the garden is a pleasure to seek and wander around CH photos later

Lovely area of gardens that the kids and I enjoy walking through, taking pictures and watching the water birds.

I absolutely adore Burton St Leonards and always have. St leonards Gardens has always been known to me as the Blind Park and I have visited here since I was very small.It is a lovely feeling to bring my son here now. It is quiet, serene, calm and beautifully landscaped. I feel so privileged to live in this area with the best architecture and this beautiful park.

Noticeable difference since the gardener retired, but still the nicest Park in my area to walk the dog.Ongoing issues in the pond, reported to council but only a partial resolution... Still oil on top of water although the dead fish have been removed now

Small park with a pond, hidden behind the old Masonic Hall.Very pleasant to walk around in the summer months, with flowers in bloom, and fish cruising in the pond.When I first visited the park, with my gran donkeys years ago, each flower had a braille plaque, so that the blind could enjoy the garden as well. A bygone age.A reminder of the grander Victoria era.Novelist Henry Rider Haggard lived at the top of the park, the road passes through an arch, and his house is there.
