Things to Keep in Mind When Visiting ⚠️

While Frog Hollow Park is a peaceful spot, multiple reviews mention sandflies being a bit of a bother, so packing some insect repellent is a smart move. There’s also occasional litter like glass and rotten food around the seating areas, which can detract from the experience. Seating is limited, so if you’re planning a longer visit, you might want to bring your own chair or picnic rug. Despite these minor issues, the park remains a quiet green escape in the city centre, best enjoyed with a bit of preparation.
