I would say it's a good refreshing point for kids. Just bear in mind that they have a cleaning service in place from 2-3 p.m., so all the water is switched off. Plus have a water gun, empty cup or empty water bottle for kids to have fun running around, splashing water. Swimming goggles will be helpful too, to protect eyes from water splashes. Sadly no WC is functioning around.

Well worth a visit even if it's a tube ride from the centre. A lovely and varied public green space. Quite lovely in parts.

One of the best parks I’ve been to. The interactions the you can have with the equipment is fantastic, music themed exercises and games to keep the body and mind active.
Lots of spaces very well kept drinking water
Charging ports for phones clean toilets on site
Soft flooring what more could you ask for.
The rest of the park is split between a few ponds and seating with places you can get a bite to eat.
Loved it can not wait to come back

The council have put an ugly fence round the boathouse but it keeps out the rough sleepers.
Their next challenge will be the illegal fishermen. The boat pond isn’t supposed to be used for fishing; it’s not the fishing season; and when you catch a few big fish (carp, I think) you’re not supposed to bag them up and take them home for dinner. Apart from that, fine!

Flat common land, great for walking or taking the dog out. There are a few amenities such as sports, a kids' paddling pool, ponds, Pear Tree Cafe, and kid's play area. Head to the Pavement and Clapham Old Town for coffee shops and restaurants.

Stunning park- really huge space to relax without intruding on other people who are around.
Excellent in the summer if you bring out your picnic chairs and blanket.

Stopped off at Honest Tom's for a burger, and my daughter's photo on the late Honest Tom's bench. We love the food there. Will try the governor burger next time

Well maintained grass areas..plenty of open space and marked out pitches for organised sports / games. Easy access from public transport and supermarkets close at hand to stock up with snacks and drinks before reaching the park areas. Well indicated (and used) footpaths and trails for walking, cycling and jogging. With plenty of people about felt very safe during popular hours.

Good vibe with live music under the gazebo on some Sundays. Pet friendly. Not much shade so bring your own umbrella or awning. Nice for a picnic. A bit noisy because some people brought huge loudspeakers which allowed the whole park to hear their “music”. This also sadly interfered with those trying to enjoy the live music.

A lovely open green area with a great atmosphere. Great for runners, walker's, cyclists and there were quite a few landscape artists which was brilliant to see. Plenty of benches to sit down and watch the world go by.
A really good skate park and basketball court's were both really busy which was great to see.
The common boasts a 24 hour snack bar which is really good with a huge choice of food and drink at fantastic prices

This wonderful place has everything you need for fun and games. It has cricket nets, tennis courts, a lovely garden ("Gem"), and a long walking track. Plus, there are plenty of pitches for football, cricket, and other sports, so there's something for everyone to enjoy!

We had a wonderful gathering there. Toilet facilities are quite sparse but clean and well supplied. The common was popular with many taking advantage of the sun 🌞

Went there a cople times during summer. It is packed with young people having fun. Looks like a festival, never had seen before! Everyone is drinking, picnicing, singing... There is also a nice roller area, which is also quite popular. Will go back this summer for sure

I was very surprised how clean and tidy the common was, and the scale of it. I camped in the park as part of extinction rebellion, we had no trouble from the locals, only the metropolitan police who spied on all weekend tried to instigate a reaction to make us look bad. We didn't bite and left the camping site cleaner than we got there.

As sun is shining and the atmosphere is cool-warm, the Clapham common was a lovely place to relax and meditate and ponder on your experiences and the lessons. There were also lots of sports activity going on adding a splendour to the garden. I sat there for two hours happily 😊
