Each evening of our stay in Blyth, we would have a wander along the sea front and end up at Ridley Park. What a lovely place for a stroll, with people playing tennis, Children playing in either of the super looking play parks, people exercising their dogs or just like ourselves and enjoying the surrounds There were some really nice, almost 3D murals on the back of buildings. As an ex bowler, I was a wee bit sad to see two green there that were obviously no longer user for the game. There seemed to be a café, but again unopened at night. Locals were very friendly. On each of visits, someone stopped to say hello and tell us something about the park. This park was even better than I imagined and made our visit to Blyth all the more enjoyable

Each of the entrances to the park were on hard standing ground and my power chair had no problem at all with these, or any of the surfaces within the park

We just wandered along the sea front from our hotel to reach the park. I did note that on the street we entered from that there was designated disabled parking. At the other end of the park, I spotted a decent sized car park

Good
I did see accessible toilets but, either due to the time we visited, or Covid, these were shut whilst we were there.
