We came down on the 5th July to support the friends of Peasholm Park, Party in the Park. The weather stayed good (just at times) and the brass band playing were excellent. All in all a great day out. Hope we win the holiday? |

Peasholm Park is one of my family's favourite places ever.We've spent many happy hours in there. Whilst on holiday last week, we visited it 5 times and it's looking better than ever !
Many Thanks to everyone concerned in its upkeep ! |

Hey, Just stumbled over this site as I'm coming back down to Scarborough for the first time in 6 years in September. Can't wait!
I LOVED Peasholm park when I was wee, we used to have many church holidays in Scarborough, and the best memories were of the park, the cliff lifts, dodging the waves at high tide (how much has the sea level risen?!) and wishing I had been around in the hey day of the open air pool.
Really hope to make it to the Park in September. At night it used to be so magical when it was lit up and I loved the Japanese style and little lanterns and boating lake. Aww, man, it was just a dream and something that really does deserve to be restored to its former glory to let little kids experience it. This is the stuff childhoods SHOULD be made of!! |

Both my Dad and Sister have left messages here so I thought I'd leave one as well :) I wouldn't admit to my Dad but Peasholm Park is one of the best places we visited as a family as that's exactly what it's all about. Families. Well done to everyone for all the work you've put in restoring the park. |

We spent many holidays in Scarborough during the 60's and 70's as a family. One of my first memories as a child is of my Dad on the lake in a canoe with my older sister with the front end out of the water where she was sitting and it nearly sinking because of his weight at the back! Would love to take my own little girl on the treewalk now as it was a magical experience for a 5 year old and something that stays with you for the rest of your life. |

My dad loves this place and has been bringing us the Scarborough since we were very little. I'll always remember a warm sunny afternoon listening to the music in the park with an ice cream or cold drink. Sheer bliss !!! |

I lived in Bridlington as a child before migrating to Australia. One of my happiest childhood memories is of visiting Peasholm Park on our family outings to Scarborough. It was a magical world to me and the highlight was the tree walk. I have hopes of returning some day and ernestly hope that the walk will be revived to delight future generations. Best wishes with the project. |
