Huge park with two lakes, North Lake and South Lake, ducks, swans. Note that feeding of the ducks, Swans is not permitted. Fishing is also not permitted in the lakes and are monitored by the council. The Mayes brook weaves it's way through the park. Lovely for long walks particularly through the woodland area. A favourite with runners and people taking their dogs for walks as well. Plenty of benches, children's playground with swings, roundabout, climbing rope frames. The council run leisure centre in the park has a gym over 3 floors trampoline park, badminton courts, skateboarding facilities, rock climbing - for members or can pay for single visit. There is also an Adidas weather proof outdoor gym installed as part of London 2012 Olympics, this is free to use. Great for riding bikes with kids, picnics. Sunday league football for kids every Sunday morning. Have seen kiteflying. There is also a canoe club each Saturday morning. There are also tracks in wooded areas to go for walks, which kids particularly enjoy. There are no toilets in the park, or anywhere to buy a coffee etc. However, on The Drive, there is a corner shop to buy drinks, ice creams etc. Please please take your litter, empty drink bottles/cans with you or discard in one of the many black litter bins dotted around the park.

The park itself is beautiful and nicely looked after. The people are as usual, not caring enough: feeding the birds bread -going against the advice posted visibly on a few places around the park, rubish left behind (from worn masks to alcohol bottles and cans), dogs off the leash with many owners not picking their poop, romanians leaving sunflower kernels all around the benches, people doing recreational drugs, listening to loud music or talking loudly. If nature wouldn't be so beautiful, you'd feel upset by how people behave

  • Brandon Mumford

Very nice open park with several bodies of water which makes it very picturesque. If you have dogs I'd recommend not letting them swim in the large ponds but there is a running stream that is very clear!
Dog-friendliness
Most dogs in this park are friendly and the most owners will let you know if that's not the case! As an owner of a bigger mastiff breed I'd like to ask that if your dog is off the lead please don't let them approach bigger dogs without the owners consent

  • Cathy Marima (Cats)

The park is big and there is a lake if you love ducks and swans. It has a children's play area. The gym that was installed during the 2012 Olympics is a little rundown and the basketball court has just one hoop left. If you want to go for a run its prefect. I usually go for a walk or on my way to the gym which is within the park. Honey underground station is about 5-10 minutes walk from the park depending which way you are coming in. The park has 6 exit/entry gates.

  • Funky Bajan

A beautiful park with plenty of benches that you can sit, read and relax, without being bothered. Theres a number of areas for you to feed the ducks and swans. A great place for a picnic, with a large enclosed play area for small children and an outdoor gym. I go for bike rides and walks and have always found it to be a clean park, where dog owners clean up after their pets. Plenty of car parking space too. All in all definitely worth a visit

  • Muhammad Haque

A large green space with full fledge stadium, a gym and Trampoline Park! Two lakes and one of them is used for canoeing during the summer time. There are many entry points through various corner of the park. There are two visitors Car Parks at Longbridge Road. Grass are maintained regularly and this place is very popular among the locals and afar! Often, this park is being used as a shortcut between Longbridge Road and Upney Lane.

Mayesbook is a very lovely park, even in winter. There is a large play park and most of the park paths are designed for accessibility. However bare in mind that there are no public toilets and B&D council are trying to encourage people not to feed the ducks as this encourages rats. Overall a very beautiful park!

  • Ayesha K

It's a beautiful relaxing park, some where to go if kids get board, there is a play area and a gym, lots of green space for them to kick around with the ball, or if you need some quite time to your self as I call it "ME TIME". Grate space to go for a walk or run. 16 April 2022 there was a funfair at the park.

  • N Ahmad

Nice park with lots of open spaces. Has 2 large lakes. Nice place for walks and lazing around and plenty of space of kids to run about and ride bikes. There is a small car park accessible from Lodge Avenue, can get full at busy times. Close to Upney and Dagenham and a short drive off the A13.

  • nat I

Nice park with pond and plenty of benches so you can enjoy the green space. I think waste was being burnt whilst I was there as there was a nasty chemical smell so I left sooner than I would have liked but without that annoyance, it seems a nice place to while away an hour or so.

  • Corby James

I growen up in Dagenham and Mayesbrook park used to be almost like an apocalyptic wastland. How things have changed, with some investment nature has made its way back to this park, it has fantastic waterways and lacks as well as extensive wooded areas.

  • Naz A

It took a lockdown to appreciate my local park and now I visit it as often as the weather permits. Around this time of year, you can see baby geese. There's a children's play area, 2 lakes and quite a bit of open grass area for picnics.

  • Brendan Gorman

An ok park, 2 lakes towards the south end with “Mayes Brook” after which the park is named, running down the western perimeter. Also contains a sports centre and free to use gym style machinery towards the centre of the park.

  • Thasin Nisat

It's a beautiful place, it's a big area, people are cycling around, there's a small place for kids to play, a lot of clean and boats maybe it would have been better, a beautiful parks and and available free parking ♥️

Lovely green space and peaceful. It needs some more maintenance but it is really good. You can go for walking, jogging or cycling. There is a small pond and lot of birds come here. Just go and relax on a warm day.

  • Raffaella ravaioli

The trampoline space is huge and fun with lots of entertainment for everyone We were there for a child friend's birthday. The staff is friendly, the party room was huge and clean just the food included

  • Frank M

Mayesbrook used to be really nice but it appears to have been neglected over thepast few years. The kids' play area is so basic. However, if you fancy a walk through little forests, you'll love it.

  • HANIY RISH

This place is the best place to spend your picnic. You have a lake and some ducks to feed them. You have a lake for fishing, skateboard park, climbing park, trampoline park and other activities.

  • Abdul Goney

Beautiful park, you wouldn't believe it's Dagenham. Better than central London parks in my opinion. Good for peace of mind, mental health. Lot of dog owners visit, not my preference but yeah.

  • Sophia Evgeniou

This place is amazing if you go in non-peak hours. Visited on a weekday when kids are at school which meant it was super quiet and enjoyable. I would go on a weekend, it's crazy busy!
