The tennis club is just a point of reference, there is a play ground right beside the tennis courts which is nice and close to my place. Great for little legs.

Almost new playground! Even I love playing here. They have two fun small trampoline pads, a great slide and lots to climb on. Its a bit more of a walk, around 800m from my house.
