PICNIC ISLAND PLAYGROUND

Public BBQ

A small, secluded playground tucked off the main walkway at South Bank, near the bridge out of the park, and far quieter than the better-known ones nearby. The equipment is limited but well chosen - a net swing, a rubbery slope with railings to slide down, a climbable green sculpture like a fairy house roof and a large spinning basin - set on soft underlay and better suited to slightly older children. A small pond with interesting trees sits alongside; it is not deep but the rocks around it are slippery, so small children need watching. There are picnic tables, a bubbler, ibises in numbers and electric barbecues around. Bathrooms and some of South Bank's best cafes are a short walk. Treat it as a pleasant stop rather than a destination.
