Perrett Park

About

Perrett Park in Bristol is a peaceful hillside green space offering sweeping views across the city, especially toward Totterdown and the iconic spire of St Mary Redcliffe. Established in the early 20th century, the park was designed to provide open space for the growing residential community and remains a cherished local retreat. Its sloping lawns, mature trees, and well-kept paths create a welcoming environment for walkers, families, and picnickers. A small playground and seating areas add to its appeal, while seasonal planting brings colour throughout the year. Though modest in size, Perrett Park’s elevated position and quiet charm make it a hidden gem within the city’s park network. It reflects Bristol’s commitment to accessible green spaces and continues to serve as a place of relaxation, community connection, and everyday beauty.
