Where can I park?We have on-road parking just outside the Hotel, and can give guests a parking permit which they can use for the duration of their stay.
If you cannot find a space outside, then there is also a small car park at the rear of the Hotel, which you are welcome to use. However, there is no access to the Hotel from the car park, so you will have to walk around the block, approx. 2 minutes. TOP TIP: Check in to the Hotel BEFORE going to the Car park, this will save you having to carry your luggage from the Car Park.
