Unnamed Road, LA8 8AS
Been here?
A parking spot with a breathtaking view and nearby walking routes, but recent visits have often been disrupted by teenagers in cars, motorbikes, loud music, fires and fireworks. Quieter nights have also been reported, especially later in the evening, with cows or sheep nearby. The approach is mostly one lane and is unsuitable for vehicles wider than 2m.

AVOID! Even on a Tuesday! Wonderful view, but the teenagers spoil it immensely. They have no respect or consideration for anyone, zoom around on motorbikes & cars all over the grass. They lit a fire & were spraying deodorant on it. I couldn't let my cat or dog out because they were terrified of all the noise and probably would have been squashed by the menaces that shouldn't be allowed to drive!
A lovely spot but the kids in their cars really ruin the vibe. They’re harmless but revving and honking isn’t my ideal sunset soundtrack. Thought it would be quiet on a Sunday! Stayed for sunset then moved on.
nice spot few cars pass but ok later on
Didn’t see the comments further down but came on a Friday night and 4 cars full of teenagers showed up, lighting fireworks and overheard them threatening to shake the van so didn’t stay! Shame because the view is lovely.
Stayed here last night. If it wasn’t for the weather it would have been perfect. Monday night, the young lads did turn up, but didn’t stay long. Good reception on 3 mobile.
Stayed here 9/8/24 and had a great nights sleep. We were one of only two campers. There were a few cars coming and going until around 12am but not overly loud or causing a nuisance. Quite a few people turned up in the morning going for walks etc but again no issues. Fantastic view and would definitely stop here again!
Amazing spot, yeah, teenagers sat about until late. They didn't bother us though, had chairs out and watched the sunset after watching a bunch of parogliderers setting off from up the road. Sat and was surrounded by friendly cows. lovely walk to the visitors centre and castle
Quiet and was not disturbed- we stayed on a Sunday evening. Views were amazing in the morning, surrounded by sheep. Public footpaths for walking close by.
Clearly a well-known spot as other comments indicate. We arrived around 7:30pm, with two cars parked but it was quiet. Flat with enough space, so no need to park parallel to the road. It was just us in our campervan by 9pm and no more traffic until sunrise. One star off - didn’t see any trash bins.
Very nice spot. Though it seems the local teenagers gather here even on Thursdays, so we didnt sleep there.
Yeah, Friday nights are definitely to be avoided. This is clearly a major hotspot for teenagers in their lowered cars with oversized exhausts.. lots of revving and racing, a bit of loud music and just a huge gathering of about 11 full cars. I’m too tired to leave, so defiantly sticking it out. To be honest they have left me alone, so it could be worse!!
great view. cars till late with lights on and teenagers using it like a drag strip. avoid in a Friday night. been here a few times before and it's lovely
We stayed on a Saturday night: lovely views, peaceful spot in the morning and lots of space for parking. However, when we arrived there was noise and comings and goings from about 10.30-12. Car sat with lights and engine on… (dogging?) and teenagers sitting blasting music in cars. Good spot once they were gone….
