Review: Beaumont Park, Littlehampton

Beaumont Park seems like the perfect area to visit.

I visited Beaumont Park earlier today, and I found the Park and its surrounding areas to be quite tidy and well maintained. The area seemed to smell of freshly-cut grass and scented flowers and roses, I noticed on my visit.


Local wildlife seem to love the Park and its surrounding areas. At least two birds' nests were present in the Park's trees and bushes.


There are many bins - provided by Arun District Council - throughout the Park, and this encourages visitors to put their litter in the bins so that the area remains tidy. A few dog poo bins were also provided by the Council. However, this doesn't seem to stop a small minority of the Park's dog owners from refusing to pick their dogs' crap up (not that there's an excuse anyway unless there's an emergency). Some unlucky visitors end up walking in dog crap because of a selfish minority of ignorant and careless dog owners who refuse to tidy up after their pets.


Buses are easy to catch from Beaumont Park as the 9 bus — which runs every hour on weekdays and Saturdays (not at all on Sundays) between Holmbush Shopping Centre, Shoreham-by-Sea, and Arundel — stops are located right next to the Boots Pharmacy and the Tesco Express. The 700 bus — which runs between Wick and Brighton — stops are only around a 10-minute walk from the Park, according to Google Maps. The 700 buses are supposed to run every 10 minutes from Monday to Saturday (20 on a Sunday); however, they're often running late.


There are lots of things you can do at Beaumont Park, including: enjoy a nice walk, walk your dog, enjoy a game of football, enjoy some time watching the birds, and/or have a picnic.


For the most part, the Park seems like the perfect area to walk around or explore.


Most of the Park's visitors seem to enjoy their visits.


I would rate Beaumont Park a 9/10, mainly because of its tidiness.
