Pittville Park is divided in two by Evesham Road. Most people are familiar with the eastern side of the park, which is overlooked by Pittville Pump Room, and home to the main children's play area and the aviaries where you'll find our popular birds and bunnies. However, to the west of Evesham Road lies the much larger western park with its more natural layout and small areas of woodland. Here you will find the larger 'lower lake' where you can fish during the fishing season, and there is a smaller children's play area along with tennis courts, a pitch and putt golf course and a skate park.

This is the best way to get into town from The Annexe, it is the old railway line that has been pedestrianised and turned into a walking/cyle path from the current train station all the way to Pittville park. To get to the town centre from The Annexe along the line is about a 20 min walk. We often do it with our 3 kids as it is such a nice and easy walk.
