2 Stone Cross, ST19 5AS, Penkridge
Been here?
This is a spacious car park beside a busy road, suitable for an overnight transit stop. It can become full, and road traffic plus a nearby railway about 100 yds away may cause noise. There are no services, but a pub, Co-op, bakery and other food options are nearby. Internet and phone signal are good.

was a quiet place with lots of space... now its been plastered online how great it is....always full. people turn up in huge motorhome with trailers and park with trailer in middle of car park!!, blocking access. people sat in camping chairs outside vans.its not a campsite! vans staying for 3 weeks or longer never moving....we will loose this place
Perfect place for one night while passing through. Good bakery nearby.
A popular park up with no restrictions. Not too many spaces when I arrived at about 10pm on Monday evening. Great internet connection. Something that I haven’t seen mentioned on other reviews is that the West Coast mainline is probably only about 100 yds away and slightly elevated, which could disturb some sleepers.
I ended up here as couldn't find anywhere else I'd feel safe. I did feel safe here though and there were 5 other vans but it was really noisy as the road was busy til gone 11pm.
Perfect place for a stay.
Stayed here after visiting the nec. It’s council owned not owned by pub. Was a great stop we used the pub for food and drinks and meet a few other motorhomers in there. Had a great night. Others had left rubbish. But we left no trace as you should. Great stop highly recommended
My first night sleeping in my car (from now on my life) quiet car park next to a busy road Not too much noise though Didn't visit the pub it's called the Bridge House that's useful because the entrance to this car park is quite hidden A couple of benches and a stream Other camper vans parked I will be sleeping here again
If you use the pubs toilets then have the courtesy to buy a drink, and ffs dont litter! Users giving us all a bad name here
Nice car park. Quiet despite being close to a road. Coop and pubs nearby. Great if travelling up and down the country. Great phone signal. Plenty of room. Would use again!
A really ace stop over. No services but adjacent to a pub (which doesn't own the carpark) friendly bar staff. excellent Coop with fresh bakery items and coffee for breakfast. There are other eating options as well. oh, its near the main road but really wasn't a problem.
What a great experience we had as an overnight stop back up to Scotland from Dover. Yes, it's just a car park, but we had plenty of space to park, flat, earplugs from 0530hrs, nice couple of pints from a friendly young girl, friendly locals. No food, so went to Flames Indian restaurant less than 5 mins walk. Best Indian food ever. Great market opposite on Wednesday. Many thanks to the pub.
Fantastic stop over. Friendly staff in pub where we enjoyed a drink , sadly kitchen already closed so visited The Spread Eagle. Food was amazing
Nice friendly pub and lovely village to discover! We liked the ‘picknicktafel’ very much. Thanks for having us!
As a couple who live full time, 12 months of the year, in their motorhome and have parked here a few times, we have always found it to be a great place to stop. Lots of space to park. Bit of noise at closing time. But otherwise no problems. Please pay a visit to the pub, it's really friendly and good beer and food. Close to shops.
Parking adjoining the Bridge House pub. The bartender is lovely and lets you taste the local beers before choosing, a pleasant surprise after being turned away from an isolated ACSI motorhome site not far away. Penkridge is worth a visit on this occasion, with its perfectly preserved houses and lanes. The number of pubs is impressive. A lovely stop when heading to or returning from Scotland.
Great place, just a little noisy because the main road runs directly past the parking area.
Fab place to stop. 9 other vans parked when we arrived at 11pm but still plenty of space. Sadly arrived too late to try out the pubs, but we did try the little cafe in town (good cooked breakfast - cash only) and picked up some pasties and cake from the lovely bakery (Jasper’s). Important to support local businesses if using free facilities!! -1 star because it’s quite noisy (road/rail).
Great park up, nice pint of Guinness what more can you ask for.
