Fine for spending the night in a picturesque place. An adjoining park has boardwalk paths, ideal for dogs traveling with you. We arrived around 7:30 p.m. and there was plenty of space. When we left the next morning at 9:15, it was completely full. So don't arrive too early. Friendly locals, although we do have a cute dog with us.
Great free car park, no signs about overnight so as long as you are respectful locals don’t mind. I parked near the back away from the cars. Was busy until around 10pm then quiet and peaceful. Would definitely stay. The village is lovely and there’s good footpaths for a stroll.
Excellent site. Easy to find and lots of spaces. I parked at the back near a brook and some trees. Very peaceful and safe.
Nice, quiet, safe. Easy walk through the village. Good spot for a night.
Relatively large parking lot. However, when we arrived at 11:30 p.m., there was almost no space left because many local residents park here. Well lit. We felt safe and slept well.
A quiet town car park, with no restrictions on overnight stays. I liked the town too. Parking bays are car sized so suits medium sized vans. Stayed one night.
Had a very quiet night. Arrived late (11 p.m.), and there were many passenger cars but no campers or other vans. There was some local activity in the morning, but not much. Ideal for one night, but don't come for the view. Ideal as a stopover while traveling through. Note: there are two entrances to the parking lot. The first is via a narrow street and the second is wider.
