Well-known for the garden centre which stands at the bottom of the park, Daisy Nook Country Park is ideal for those looking to take a short walk, enjoy a picnic while sunbathing or go fishing and horseriding.

The park is located in the Medwick Valley, between Oldham, Failsworth and Ashton-uner-Lyne.

The level towpaths of the Rochdale Canal around Daisy Nook Country Park are a great place to go walking and there are plenty of seats around for you to take a break and simply soak in the view.
