Things to do in Sefton Park

Sefton Park is one of the loveliest places to spend some time in Aigburth, and the city of Liverpool itself! It's a Grade I listed park by English Heritage and covers over 200 acres. It's famous for its scenic boating lake and the stunning Palm House, making it the perfect place for a stroll, whatever the weather.

The park also plays host to lots of Liverpool's events including the Liverpool Food & Drink Festival, Fusion Festival, Africa Oye and much more. The beautiful dome shaped Victorian Palm House is a favourite for young couples choosing to tie the knot and is well worth a visit.

Things to do in Aigburth

Alongside the beautiful green space of Sefton Park, Aigburth also has the peaceful Festival Gardens. The tranquil space, accessible from the waterfront, has waterfalls, waterways and oriental gardens - ideal for a quiet afternoon stroll.

The waterfront itself is a hugely popular part of Aigburth and is referred to as Otterspool promenade. The walkway stretches along the River Mersey, reaching all the way up to the Albert Dock. Often action packed with walkers, joggers and cyclists, it's a lovely area, which also contains substantial green space in the middle (as well as access to Festival Gardens).

It is the perfect destination for young families and those with children as Otterspool Adventure Playground is right on the waterfront. With a 12-hole adventure golf course, outdoor play area and a cafe, it has everything you'd need for a fun day out.

Liverpool Cricket Club is also at the far end of Aigburth (towards Speke and Garston) and as well as being the regular home venue of Lancashire County Cricket Club, it also hosts events, weddings and regional events.

Places to eat & drink

Looking for the perfect place to eat and drink? Lark Lane is one of Liverpool's most bustling thoroughfares. Situated in the middle of Aigburth, between Sefton Park and Aigburth Road, it is full of quirky bars, delicious restaurants and small boutiques. Affectionately called The Lane by locals, you won't struggle to find somewhere nice for a quick bite to eat or an indulgent meal.
