"Living on the doorstep of Bristol’s loveliest park is really special. From summer barbecues and drinks beneath the trees to games on the grass and gathering around the fire on Bonfire Night, the park is the green heart of our community."

Living in Victoria Park

The area has a wonderful feeling of community, most evident on sunny days with the park bustling with neighbours and visitors alike. The area is central to many community events such as ‘Art on the Hill’. For commuters, Temple Meads train station is a short walk away and the local Bedminster train station is just the other side of the park.

The local primary school, Victoria Park, is well thought of locally and along with St Mary Redcliffe (in the park), has enhanced the appeal of this area for young families. Close by are gastro-pubs such as the Victoria Park and Star and Dove, brilliant community owned pubs such as The Rising Sun, cafes such as the Sundial Kitchen, fruit and vegetable sellers such as The Banana Boat, bakeries and grocers such as Bristol Loaf and Hugo’s, and many other shops and restaurants.

Only a short bike-ride away are the music venues, theatres, cocktail bars, and other amenities of North Street, the Harbourside, Wapping Wharf, and the City Centre. Yet this location is quiet and peaceful. For those looking for green space, there are few, if any, better places in Bristol. Victoria Park itself offers approximately 50 acres of large open space with fantastic views of the city. There is also a child’s play area and a marked running route for joggers. Perrett’s Park and Arnos Vale also offer tranquil greenery and views, in an area where it’s easy to feel distant from the city buzz.
