About this space
Bordering Hastings' waterpark Splash Planet, Windsor Park is a popular spot in the summer for family sports and picnics, with a free-to-use barbecue and picnic tables on site.
It is also a sports ground catering for a number of codes. There are two separate areas that have sports fields. One is accessed from Sylvan Road, near the playground and the other from Grove Road and Windsor Avenue. Currently junior football is played here in the winter, and cricket and touch in the summer. There are three artificial wickets on the Windsor Ave side. Flag football and ultimate frisbee have also hosted successful tournaments here.
There is a skating rink available for public use in the centre of the park.
Paths skirting the edge of the grassed sports fields make it popular with walkers, runners and cyclists. If you’ve got time for a stroll follow the stream around to see the ducks and the beautifully kept rose gardens at the park edge on Terrace Road.
The installation of the park’s fully fenced playground was a joint project between Hastings Host Lions Club and Hastings District Council. Play equipment includes a climbing web, swings, seesaw, pirate ship, slides, and large climbing frame.
There are toilets on both sides of the park, a drinking fountain and bountiful amounts of shade provided by mature trees.
