LAWRIE PARK

Public BBQ

Lawrie Park proves that sometimes the best discoveries happen when simply stretching your legs. Tucked along Scenic Drive in Nelshaby, this unpretentious spot ticks every box for a proper family stop. The undercover barbecue area shelters a couple of hotplates and a long communal table - the sort of setup that turns strangers into temporary neighbours over sizzling snags. Playground equipment appears refreshingly sturdy, while additional picnic tables offer choices for sunshine lovers. Clean toilets remove usual travel anxiety, and the whole place maintains that tidy, cared-for feel speaking well of local pride. It's where quick pit stops become lingering breaks watching kids burn off highway energy while you actually relax.
