Been here?
This shopping-centre car park is close to Canterbury city centre and the river, with a pleasant riverside walk nearby. Parking can be paid through an app, and comments mention 2 hours free, although charges have varied. The car park is large but has narrow turning points, making access difficult for some campervans and motorhomes.

Great parking area very close to the centre. Payment can be made via the app.Translating
Shopping-centre parking; you can stay there free for two hours, but I did not see any barrier that could lock you in.Translating
Good location, but it gets expensive quickly.Translating
Good location near the city center, but payment is by coins only… it costs around £2.50 per hour. We had to find another parking area.Translating
There is a river right around the corner which is beautiful for a little walk. The city center isn't too far away either.Translating
Very good for visiting the city, though not glamorous for sleeping. Spacious, level, close to the center... however, the first two hours are no longer free; we paid about £7 for 3 hours.Translating
Very large car park without a barrier. The license plate is scanned and a sign displays the maximum parking time. We parked as far from the entrance as possible across two spaces so as not to bother anyone. We are 6.80 m long. A Mini on our left and another vehicle were there before our arrival and after our departure, but we did not want to risk it.Translating
Ok, it’s two hours free, if you have a small camper van or short Motorhome. We have a 5.5m Campervan, even hard to find a proper parking place. All the turning points at this car park are narrow. In the end, we gave up and didn’t stay. I don’t recommend. Translating
With the supermarket's free parking time, there is enough time for a quick visit to the center, a walk along the river, The Old Weaver House, Buttermarket Square, and Mercery Lane, all very close. If you want to see the cathedral or have a drink, it is better to pay at the car park next to the buses.Translating
Great place to park, very easy to access and super nice walk along the river to reach the centre of Canterbury. Translating
Automatic license plate recognition, maximum 2 hours. Big space so lot's of parking spots.Translating
Worth noting that there’s also a huge quiet coach park at the rear with ample space for campers... not ideal for overnights and no services but great for resetting, maintainance or just spreading out for the day. There’s also the river if you need to throw your dog in!Translating
Perfect for quickly visiting the city; two hours free at Sainsbury’s.Translating
