Explore Goodwood: Giblins Reserve

Located in Goodwood, Giblins Reserve brings together picnic and barbecue facilities, a play area and a circuit path. For families, these offer different options for planning the day: taking a break together, spending time at the play area or getting active on the path. Which of these shapes your visit depends on your travel plans.

Taking a break at Giblins Reserve

The reserve’s facilities include barbecue facilities, picnic tables, weather shelter, public toilets and a car park. Picnic tables and barbecue facilities offer two different options for a meal break: you can consider whether you’d like to plan a picnic or a barbecue. The weather shelter adds to the options for spending time there; toilets and a car park are other practical facilities on site that you can factor into your plans. The reserve is also fenced.

Play facilities and nearby courts

The play area includes a wheelchair-accessible swing, accessible roundabouts and other inclusive equipment. These features differ: the swing is wheelchair accessible, while the roundabouts are accessible. If you’re travelling with children, you can use these specific features as a guide and consider which ones might interest you during your visit. This makes it possible to factor the play area into your plans based on its individual facilities.

Basketball and multipurpose courts are near Giblins Reserve, but not within the reserve. They are a separate option nearby and are not part of the play area. If you’d like to consider both the play facilities and the courts, you can treat these as two separate types of activities in your day’s plans.

Circuit path and accessible features

The reserve also has sensory equipment, an accessible toilet and an accessible circuit path. These features relate to different aspects of a visit: the equipment on site, a toilet facility and getting around on the path. If accessibility is a consideration for your trip, look at the specific features of the play area, toilet and path individually. A swing, a path and a toilet relate to different situations, so one feature does not replace the need to consider the others. This can help you check more specifically which facilities are relevant to your needs.

Check the current conditions of the circuit path and the availability of the accessible toilet before your visit.
