GIBSON PLACE PARK

Public BBQ

Gibson Place Park in Holland Park West proves itself a genuinely thoughtful neighbourhood gem, where the council has managed to tick most boxes without making a complete hash of it. The fenced playground strikes that rare balance of being challenging enough for older kids while remaining sensible for toddlers - though naturally, they've left part of the perimeter unfenced, because why make things entirely straightforward? The undercover barbecue areas are mercifully clean and well-maintained, a pleasant surprise given the usual state of public facilities. What particularly impresses is the attention to accessibility - proper disabled toilets and easy parking along residential streets. The basketball court adds a nice touch for restless teenagers, while dog owners will appreciate the welcoming atmosphere. Just mind the timing: those toilets plunge into Stygian darkness after sunset, making evening visits rather adventurous.
