6 Preston Park Avenue, BN1 6HJ, Brighton
Been here?
This side-road parking area beside Preston Park has plenty of space for large vans and is convenient for Brighton city centre. It is now paid parking through an app, with a 6-hour limit and restrictions every day from 9am to 8pm; overnight parking is prohibited. The surface can be uneven, and toilets are located by the café rotunda. Parking is on one side only because of double yellow lines.

Many fairly wide and long spaces, but be careful: the parking area is no longer free.Translating
Perfect place for the day. It now costs €8.50, payable only via the app. Thanks to the local resident who paid for us.Translating
New parking restrictions have been introduced - see photo. There’s a time limit of 6 hours and restrictions are in place every day 9am to 8pm with no overnight parking.
Loads of spaces to park, pretty quiet and nice cafe with toilets next to parking.
I do not recommend parking here during the day: it is very narrow and paid.Translating
Parking prohibited at night.Translating
Really impressed. We had been meaning to try it for a while and are glad we did. We lost things from the cupboards on the way down because of so many potholes and bumps, so take it slowly! We almost got stuck in mud again, so be careful where you reverse. We have not completed the whole night yet, but we are impressed so far.Translating
Inexpensive and as close as you can get to town. Lots of foot traffic. Toilets outside Rotunda cafe. Recycling point at beginning of driveway. Parking always uneven. Not a lot of solar exposure.
It is very busy and difficult to find a space. The spaces are not level. The parking attendant is active, so watch the time!Translating
Nice spot near the city centre. The carpark from the northern entrance is more suitable for staying overnight. Rather quiet.
Very good and inexpensive parking for visiting Brighton, 15–20 minutes on foot from the centre and the sea. However, we did not sleep there because it slopes on the sides and is next to the boulevard.Translating
Good spot, stayed one night. A 25-minute walk from the city centre. Quiet at night. Toilets in the nearby park, although I imagine they are only open during the day. Please take your rubbish home and respect the area.Translating
Great parking spot, about a 40-minute walk to the seafront, but it is easy to get a bus.Translating
Very well-located parking area for going into town; allow 30 minutes on foot to reach the beach. Very nice park next door with children’s play equipment. We found a space at the back of the lower car park for our 8-metre motorhome. I recommend using the upper car park, where there is more space. Be sure to pay during the day; someone checks. It is free at night.Translating
Good place for visiting the city, quiet, and paid, but worthwhile.Translating
Good spot, an easy walk to Brighton. Nice and quiet in a lovely park. It’s cheap—£5 for six hours, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday to Friday and 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday. The only issue is that you can pay for a maximum of six hours, not the full seven-hour day. This was not a problem for us: we returned at 3 p.m. and relaxed by the van until 4. We saw no traffic warden. There are two entrances; use the upper one, as it has much more room. The upper entrance is through the pillars.Translating
came late and got a parking ticket for the next day but I don't think anyone checked it, a bit tricky to enter because of one way streets but when in, it was a jam, close to the city and relatively quiet at night
We only parked there to visit Brighton. There is less space than the pictures suggest, and we only got a spot by luck.Translating
Whoever made this listing did not provide the proper address; it does not take you where you need to go. So thanks for that.Translating
The sign said £2.50 for four hours. I got two hours on the printed ticket. I was worried I would get a ticket, so I marched back from town. Bummer.Translating
Great parking area directly next to a large, beautiful park. It took us 20 minutes to walk into town. Perfect for dog owners!Translating
Can be crowded with joggers, dog walkers, and other people. It gets quieter late at night. However, it is close to the city centre and felt quite safe.Translating
what you'd expect when sleeping in the city. Car park was still full of cars when we arrived at 7:30 and just managed to get a space. It's a great spot for visiting the town - we paid £3 for 6 hours on the app but we came back to a parking ticket on our windscreen!!
