Coombe Abbey Park recognised as one of the best parks in the country

Coventry Editorial 26th Feb, 2022   0

COVENTRY’S very own Coombe Abbey Park has once again become an accredited Country Park meaning that it continues to be recognised as one of the best parks in the country.

The title of ‘Country Park’ is only awarded to parks who can meet Natural England’s high standards and only 32 parks in the England currently have the coveted title.

The judges award the status based on a number of essential and desirable criteria such as the quality and accessibility of the park’s facilities and the landscape itself.

Coombe Abbey Park, which first received the title in 2012, continues to be one of them following a successful application for the status.




Coun Abdul Salam Khan, Deputy Leader and Cabinet Member for Parks said: “It’s fantastic to see our wonderful Coombe Abbey Park receive this prestigious title.

“We’re incredibly proud of our parks in Coventry and it’s great that their quality is being recognised nationally.


“It’s a testament to our parks staff and volunteers who work hard to ensure that the park continues to be a stunning place to visit.”
