We visited Ford Park having arrived in Ulverston quite late in the afternoon, and just wanting somewhere to go that was dog-friendly, that would be suitable for my two youngest daughters to play, and also where I could walk with my mum who is now getting on in years. Ford Park delivered! I opted for the park as its very close to the monument/lighthouse and can be accessed from there.<br>Even though the park has opening and closing times it is, in actual fact, accessible 'out of hours' as there is no gate that is locked. You can actually drive into the park (single track road) and park in a small area. side. I actually noticed a few cars parked on the grass.<br>My girls thoroughly enjoyed playing on the park amenities. Just past the house (in the middle of the park) there is also a lovely enclosed garden area that is run by friendly volunteers. You can buy plants and horticultural goodies there too. There also looks to be a cafe there. My dog also loved playing in the park.

A nice welcome and a good show of Me and My Girl. The lead actor and actress were excellent!

It's a very basic ground, parking is near by in Asda you have to download the Horizon app to park. Only a 10 min walk to the ground.

In September 2023, Jane Gidlow said about Base Restaurant by Elite Dining
I was quite underwhelmed sadly.<br>We turned up for our reserved table and the waitress shouted something to us at the door, but as she was shouting it across to us she had turned her back so we didn't make out what she was saying at first but it turned out she was saying basically sit where you want!<br>We could see our names on the reserved table so was slightly confused by the situation.<br>The food was OK but not to the standard wed hoped based on reviews we'd read. The reviews unfortunately didn't match the experience and we were hoping to try the evening menu with some friends but based on the lunch experience won't bother now.<br>The lack of experience of the waiting staff is definitely letting the restaurant down, it didn't feel genuine. We were asked if our food was OK a few minutes after it was served but the waitress had her back to us and was half way back on the restaurant by the time she'd finished asking us so felt it was insincere and she was just asking for the sake of asking. We'd hoped that it was going to be really good but unfortunately it was just average and over hyped. The final point to note was that we'd made a reservation at 1:30pm for a relaxing afternoon lunch on a special occasion, and an hour later the staff were locking up and we still had half a bottle of wine to finish!
