Overlooking the River Dee to the south of the city, Grosvenor Park is one of Chester’s best-loved green spaces.

Lyme Park in Cheshire is a Grade I-listed house dating back to the 16th century, with pleasant gardens and a 15-acre deer park.

Chester’s Roman Gardens are a pleasant place for a stroll and during the summer months the place to watch a film at the annual, outdoor, Moonlight Flicks cinema programme.
