The Park is handy for visiting several stores and shops, but if you over stay by a few minutes you get heavily fined.

It's good to be able to walk in a pleasant precinct that accesses a variety of retail outlets including M&S, Primark, Lush (beautiful aromas!)..... A change to find premises open and not shut down

Stacks Takeaway: Best vegan/vegetarian burger I've ever had. Ordered from there twice now and it's really quick - says 40 minutes, under 30. Food is really fresh, not at all greasy and the chips & onion rings are super crispy. I'd definitely recommend. Its a little pricier than others, but worth it.

Weird.But good. It was weird in the sense that the rock looks like a shopping centre but then there's no fences or walls so it makes you wonder if the older part of the shops are included. The activities were also closed and the fast food places were really dirty. However on the upside the fact that there is a super dry shop is terrific ! Only you can't access upstairs so it is a bit of covid hazard. The parking also doesn't have doors leading directly into the shops area you have to go round? Why connect them then?
