Brandon Hill Park

Brandon Hill Park is one of Bristol's most popular picnic spots with plenty to interest everyone, panoramic views of the city, and spectacular sunsets.

It does not boast a great many facilities, but is an excellent place to spot and even feed the huge number of squirrels the area supports. Reportedly they will just come and eat from your hand if you sit still for a while holding nuts, so make sure you buy plenty (of the right kind, mind, ask a pet store) in advance.
