About

In 1938, Alice Park was gifted to the city of Bath as a public park by Herbert Montgomery MacVicar. Fast-forward 78 years to 2016, and the Alice Park Trust was established to oversee the space. Situated close to the A4 and its junction with the Gloucester Road, Alice Park is a hidden gem that everyone can enjoy.

Boasting eight acres of landscaped parkland, you’ll find a children’s play park, six tennis courts, a boules piste, cycle paths and a wildlife conservation area. From August 2026, the park is also trialling PlayMade's PlayPods, allowing visitors to borrow free tennis equipment when using one of the courts - discover more and book here. 

The park is also home to a children's nursery, community garden and Alice Park Café. Award-winning and open year-round, the fully licensed café produces their own vegetarian and school-compliant LittleScoffs individual meals alongside Classic Alice Breakfasts, paninis, toasties, snacks and more. With a focus on organic and fair-trade food using local suppliers wherever possible, the café is also a Bath in Bloom winner, having created and maintained the Alice Garden planters. They also regularly host community events including the Big Bath Sleep-Out in aid of Julian House.

Frequently used by sports and fitness groups, there is also free car parking on site and well-kept toilets, plus dogs are always welcome. Whether you wish to work out, grab lunch, relax in the sunshine or volunteer in the community garden, Alice Park has everything for everyone.
