"Anonymous"
When am out in Friockheim I use toilets regularly. Find them well kept.

​"Aileen"

​Some of my favourite family memories are at Friockheim Park. The wide open green space, sheltered by a surrounding strip of woodland. From picnics with my family, playing games, football with my son, Frisbee etc. Just bonded with them so much over the years playing there. There's a great climbing tree at the back where we would sit under the shade and just enjoy the peace and quiet. I don't live in Friockheim, but I chose to spend my time there. I love the place and my kids will remember it fondly too.
