    Great spot. Plenty of space. Several other people stopping here. Felt safe. Trains weren't too noisy.

  • 3/5

    Great place to park up for visiting the city during the day. But when it got to the evening we didn’t feel like it was an especially safe or relaxing place to spend the night because of trading noise and risk of antisocial behaviour locally.

  • 4/5

    Llegamos a las 9pm y las puertas estaban abiertas. Noche tranquila, aunque el tren seguia pasando por la noche pero no nos molestó. Eso si, no aparques justo al lado de las vías si no al lado contrario. Recomendable.

  • 3/5

    schlecht: züge sehr laut..gut: security fährt vorbei...nicht alle automaten akzeptieren karte.....

  • 5/5

    A great recommendation. Also to note parking charge runs 24hrs so if you arrive 4pm one day & pay the £4.10 fee it runs till 4pm next day.

  • 5/5

    Great spot flat and loads of space. Nice that it’s locked at night too.

  • 4/5

    As described other than not locked overnight as funfair in town.

  • 5/5

    Endroit parfait pour visiter la ville

  • 3/5

    Parking publico con espacio para autocaravanas. Sin ningún servicio. No hay contenedores de basura.

  • 5/5

    God placering tæt på centrum. Vi havde en god nat på stedet

  • 4/5

    Car park is free between 6 pm and 8.30 am. Plenty of space to park. Gates are locked around 8 pm, opened at 6.30 am. The only issue is that the trains are noisy. Short walk to public toilets in kids park around the corner; they were locked overnight but were open in the morning. Stayed on 8 July 2024.

  • 5/5

    Great Moho parking for castle visit. Spacious parking with 15 long spaces- 7 of which will take a caravan/car combo.

  • 4/5

    Paid £4.10 (cash only) at time of arrival, expiry time and date on ticket is for 24 hours. Fairly quiet night apart from the trains. Walked down to the McVities factory shop and got a bag full of biscuits for £7 :)

  • 4/5

    £ 4,10 sind in Münzen zu bezahlen! = Parkschein für 24 Stunden

  • 4/5

    Parked overnight. Paid £4.10 so we didn’t need to rush in the morning. Some works taking place in the far end of the car park so some noise starting in the early morning. Close to Cathedral and Castle (English Heritage). Town also within walking distance. Toilets locked in the evening.

  • 5/5

    Here again in hattie for one night , still cracking value at £4.10 for 24 hours, defo come back, lev nowt behind

  • 5/5

    Excellent value for money. Arrived after 6pm on Friday and paid £4.10 for the full day Saturday, ticket valid until 8.30am on Sunday. Felt safe and it was quiet at night. There are public toilets in the park or Sainsburys is a short walk away.

  • 5/5

    Stayed here as a solo traveller. Slept well and felt safe. Yes you can hear the trains but I still slept well. I don’t know if it was because it was Sunday but the gates remained open through the night.

  • 5/5

    Having read the previous post we visited the Carlisle Civic Centre to enquire about parking overnight and was told it was fine to park here as long as you are in the marked bay and paid.

  • 4/5

    Great place near town centre BUT NO overnight parking allowed now….risk of fines.

  • 3/5

    Many spaces for MH to park. £3.80 for the day, free over night. Easy to pay by app or using cash. Trains pass by throughout the night and woke me a few times but I expect that if we’re using a space like this. Several vans stayed overnight. Rubbish bins are the only service. An easy walk into the centre.

  • 4/5

    Nice central little spot. Well lit and felt very safe. Free overnight. Loses a star for train noise :(

  • 4/5

    Stayed 22nd Jan. Good parking and £3.80 for 24 hrs. Trains passing but didn't keep us awake. Had a good night sleep - just us and one other camper. Gates not locked and a car came in doing donuts in car park at around 9:30/10pm ish, but didn't stay long.

  • 5/5

    Parfait pour visiter la ville à pieds et y passer la nuit.

  • 5/5

    stayed last night,only our MH and one car on the car park arrived late,but the gates were still open,parked in designated bay and even though it was quite cold -3 degrees great night sleep,no disturbances

  • 2/5

    Would only stay here if I were really stuck. boy racers doing donuts in the car park till after 11. The noise isn't the issue but we're skidding a little to close to my van.

  • 5/5

    great place for an overnight stop, large motorhome bays, £3.80 till 6pm, free overnight

  • 3/5

    Massive car park with designated spaces for campervans. Next to a gorgeous park with spotless public loos BUT the car park is floodlit all night and who knew Carlisle was such a hub of rail activity! Literally trains every 20 mins or so ALL night, freight and repositioning passenger trains. Great spot tho if you're not a light sleeper and 10min walk into shops, pubs n takeaways.

  • 5/5

    Great overnight spot...well done Carlisle...hats off to you

  • 5/5

    Excellent park up right next to the Castle. £3.80 all day and free at night. Designated spaces for campervans but if they are full then there are loads of standard spaces. I am here for a festival in the Castle and will stay for 3 nights. Even though it’s a big event the car park is empty with only 3 or 4 campervans parked up overnight. Kids were noisy till about 10pm and trains are every 5 minutes and right next to the car park. The trains did seem to stop overnight and didn’t bother me at all. Great spot and I must say it’s excellent that Carlisle welcomes campervans. Unlike most of the UK.

  • 4/5

    Good sized spaces to park up, only £3.80 for campers/motorhomes between 8.30am and 6pm then free for the night after. It says the car park is closed but it didn’t get shut while we were there. Quiet except for the trains, it was a hot night so we had windows open and they come through several times per hour all night so bear in mind if you are a light sleeper.

  • 4/5

    Had a great overnight stop here. Arrived at 7pm already a few campers. There are designated caravan/coach spaces, but this is a large car park so we parked in a general space. There was some plant in the car park where work is ongoing and the generator for the security lights was a bit annoying, so try and park away from it. Gates were not locked overnight. I would recommend.

  • 5/5

    Had a great quiet night here last night. Trains did not bother us, great toilets nearby in the park that open at 9am.

  • 1/5

    J’ai du mal à comprendre que ce spot soit conseillé, très bruyant la nuit, le train passe plusieurs fois par heure même la nuit et une usine ( moteur qui marche en continu) fait également beaucoup de bruit, après deux semaines de road trip, la pire nuit que nous ayons passée

  • 4/5

    4 sterline per la sola notte, comodo, silenzioso, dietro le mura. siamo arrivati verso le 21.00 ed era aperto

  • 4/5

    Pas de service mais calme au bord d'un grand parc. Le parking n'est pas fermé la nuit.

  • 5/5

    Quiet after boy racers gone home.

  • 5/5

    The best parking in town. £ 3 for all far long, including overnight and camper vans?! What a bargain. Thanks city council for enabling that. 10/10 loved it.

  • 5/5

    Perfect spot! Free to park for the night, daytime parking between 8:30 am and 6pm is £3 for a whole day. Next to the railroad, but we slept soundly. Highly recommended!

  • 5/5

    £3.80 for 24 hrs. Take coins. No facilities but gate is locked at 8pm so secure. During the daytime there are public toilets on the park adjacent. Plenty of room (we were only ones there!) 5 mins walk to town centre. Highly recommend.

  • 4/5

    Haben hier eine Nacht gestanden und haben am nächsten Tag die Stadt angeschaut. Nachts kostenlos, über Tag 3,50 Pfund. Ja, Züge fahren hier... uns hat es nicht gestört. Eher ein Campernachbar, der Katzen Duft verbreitete und seinen Motor immer mal wieder laufen ließ.

  • 3/5

    Good one night here, but trains are really noisy, Free from 6pm to 8:30am. Parking gates were to be closed overnight, but were not.

  • 4/5

    Quiet spot, level tarmac and we parked up with some fellow MH travellers. Gates we’re locked which stopped the yarhoos driving about, and it’s only £3 for 24 HRs parking. Bargain.

  • 2/5

    Very noisy. There are many trains on one side, traffic on the other, a skatepark and ambulances driving by. It was a little more quiet between 23-7h. It is free between 18-830h and there were signs about the gate closing at 20h but they were still open at 23h. Upside: specific bays for motor homes and relatively close to the city center and castle of course. Won’t stay here again.

  • 3/5

    Super für eine Nacht, wenn man nicht zu geräuschempfindlich ist. Für 3,80£ vollkommen in Ordnung. Von hier aus kann man durchs Städtchen bummeln oder lange Spaziergänge durch die Grünanlagen machen.

  • 3/5

    Viel Platz mit extra Plätzen für Wohnmobile, günstig mit 3,80 £ für einen Tag, nah zum Zentrum. ABER: Nachts fahren viele Güterzüge und normale Züge und Autoverkehr, also recht laut! Das sollte man wissen wenn man hier steht!

  • 4/5

    Quiet night except for trains, gate locked at night, foot access still possible. Close to amenities walks and parks

  • 3/5

    Stayed here for two nights, the price is right at £3.80, change is best for the machine. Easy walk to everything and they lock the gates which keeps the horns out. Didn’t hear a train on Sunday night but Monday night got woken a couple of times, still good for the money. No services and the bins were already full.

  • 5/5

    Een prima plek om de stad in te gaan en te overnachten. Er zijn speciale vakken voor campers gemaakt en het hek sluit tussen 20.00 en 06.30 om overlast tegen te houden. 5 minuten lopen naar het centrum, Sainsbury zit aan de andere kant van het spoor en naast het kasteel een groot park.

  • 5/5

    Platz war leer als wir kamen.

  • 5/5

    Cracking over nighter just a short walk to Carlisle town centre, no services but toilets r just a short walk away, there are new signs up explaining that the carpark will be locked overnight, I spoke to the local council who said it is still OK to stay overnight in u motorhome, but to get out when gates r locked u hav to pay £45, still only £3. 80p for 24 hours, wot a bargain, defo come back

  • 4/5

    Were a bit nervous about parking here having read previous reviews about eggs been thrown at vans, But we took the risk. Granted the trains could be an issue for some, but did not bother us. Couple of races went past late night. But all in all it was a peaceful night for the 4 vans/motohomes staying here. But hand place to stay for a visit to Carlisle. Free overnight and free at weekends.

  • 1/5

    We stayed here for 1 night we was only parked up for 30 mins next to another motorhome and a dark grey transit van with 2 grown men pulled up and threw eggs all over mine and the next doors motor home they then returned 20 mins later when the notices we seen them they switched there lights off on there van and drove off, it’s full of drunken people walking over the car park making plenty off noise

  • 4/5

    Same comments as below. Good stop over. Will use again.

  • 4/5

    Nice level car park. Loads of room. Noise from passing trains, parked on the opposite side of the car park away from the tracks and slept undisturbed. Gates locked at 8pm, no boy racers, they all left just before they got locked in. Will use this again for Carlisle. Nice stopover. £3.80 per day. Free overnight 6pm-8.30am. We arrived after 6pm and paid for the following day so didn’t leave early.

  • 4/5

    spacious and flat parking. Gate wasn't locked on our Saturday night 3Dec but all safe; went out to a pub in town. Terribly noisy with engineering works on railway all night.

  • 4/5

    secure and safe £3.80 for 24 hours large motorhome bays. short walk to centre of Carlisle, frequent trains but you get used to it. we would use again.

  • 4/5

    Great safe parking gates locked 20:00 - 06:30 free at weekends £3:80 24hrs mid week just a 10 min walk into city centre if you park furthest away from trains then it’s only a faint noise didn’t bother us

  • 5/5

    Nos quedamos una noche en este parking y todo estuvo perfecto. Tranquilo. No tiene servicios, es un parking normal. A lado del castillo. Muy bien ubicado para conocer la ciudad. 3.80£ la noche

  • 5/5

    Excellent place for a short or long stay. Locked gates after 20.00 opened at 6.30. Safe and near to Carlisle centre. £3.80 for 24hrs.☆☆☆☆☆

  • 5/5

    Convenient stop for visiting Carlisle (10 m walk through park). Free parking weekends and bank holidays but no overnight sleeping. Free three hours for disabled badge holders. Thank you Carlisle.

  • 3/5

    Stayed on a Friday night All good. Lovely walks and brilliant play park . Short walk to town feels secure. Would definitely return.

  • 3/5

    Pasamos la noche en este lugar y aunque todo el mundo menciona a el tren para nosotros no supuso un problema, si fueron problemáticos los jóvenes que están en el parque que hay al fondo,ocuparon todo el espacio a eso de las 19 y cuando se marcharon pasadas las 23:30 pusieron música muy alta en la zona donde estábamos descansado las AC,a parte de eso muy bien situado y precio más que razonable.

  • 5/5

    24 large designated spots for motorhomes. £3.80 for 24hrs ,no charge overnight or weekends.Brilliant spot for visiting the castle or city centre 5min walk. Trains go slowly past but didn't bother us,the seagulls did lol. we spent 2 nights here and will definitely be back.

  • 5/5

    Excellent parking lot. Quiet at night, no parking fee in weekends and bank holidays. Only a few trains came by slowly, which not bothered at all. The gate has not been closed during our stay from saturday until sunday. If you want to leave at night you can call security, £45,- for releasing. Closure times may vary at special events or late night shopping at thursdays in november and december.

  • 4/5

    Police knocked on the door at 1am due to a crime. Other than that, is a useful stop over , especially good for dog owners. Right next to a park. Paid &3.80’to stay overnight.

  • 4/5

    Pros: plenty of spaces, close to park, £3.80 for 24hrs and overnight allowed, gates locked at 8.30pm to stop boy racers, 10 mins from centre. Cons: trains (though quieter after 11pm and better if you park by the road), skate park with youths messing around till late, eg motorbikes, drinking, no rubbish facilities other than regular litter bins. But well done Carlisle council for providing.

  • 5/5

    Designated Motorhome bays on the car park why can’t every city do this and it’s free on the weekend does have the railway line extremely close so be aware if parking overnight

  • 5/5

    mooie parkeerplek vlakbij centrum. je mag er volgensmij overnachten maar je kan pas om half 7 eruit rijden. het hek gaat dicht nachts

  • 4/5

    Being able to park and sleep overnight for £3:80p in a city centre location is amazing. We had a lovely walk around Carlisle, thank you to the city authorities for allowing this. Other places could learn to welcome motorhomers in this way

  • 5/5

    Stayed here 1st May 2022. Barrier gate was locked about 8:30pm, no comment or reaction about us staying over. I only heard 3 trains in 24 hours and they were short trains and slow. The car park is free on weekends and bank holidays so it was free for our stay - very happy with that! Can take any size vehicle up to full Coach

  • 2/5

    endroit qui pourrait être agréable si les trains ne passaient pas toutes les 3 mn, la journée et toute la nuit! Le parking fermé le soir par des barrières vers 19h.

  • 5/5

    Really great spot. Quick pullover from the motorway. Safe and well lit.

  • 5/5

    Perfect place to stay right by castle and city centre. Very quiet. Car park was closed over night

  • 5/5

    £3-70 to park daily. Free overnight. Designated motorhome/caravan/coach parking bays. park beside the road, not beside the train track. very quiet overnight. right beside the castle. Excellent value

  • 5/5

    Next to train tracks but didn't hear any trains. No covid testing centre here as previously noted in reviews. Gates are locked 20:30 to 07:00. Not as picturesque as Rickerby Park but convenient for city centre and Sainsbury's just a 5 min walk away.

  • 3/5

    Free to park overnight, although signs say closed overnight, the gates aren’t closed. £3.60 charge for 08:30-1800. Right next to train line so it is noisy. There is also currently a Covid testing station that has a huge generator running all night. Massive search lights on the car park. No noise or activity. from boy racer or drug dealers. Good access to the park, river, castle and city. Just a bit noisy so take some ear plugs. We slept well and felt safe. Although Rickerby is probably better for a good nights sleep and a lot prettier.

  • 2/5

    £3.60 overnight which gives access to Carlisle, Really noisy due to trains all night and Ambulances sirens. There is a Covid test centre on site with Generators running constantly. The best bit is the fabulous smell from the nearby biscuit factory!

  • 1/5

    No overnight parking available - all gates locked. moved on to Rockley Park and stayed there overnight.

  • 3/5

    Great free safe overnight, hourly rate by day. Sign says closed( locked?) overnight but been there twice recently and not locked either time. Wee bit noisy from trains nearby.

  • 4/5

    Le tarif est de 3,50£ pour la journée jusqu'à 3h00 pour les CC. Le Fermé le soir, mais la nuit reste autorisée, et proche du centre ville. Nuit très calme.

  • 3/5

    Good location, huge carpark, special places for campers, but no overnight parking allowed.

  • 3/5

    Per vedere la città ottimo parcheggio tutto il giorno 3,50£ per la notte luogo sicuro ma rumoroso ovviamente in pieno centro storico.

  • 5/5

    Très bien, j'y ai passé une nuit, sécurisé et très proche du centre. Park pas très loin.

  • 4/5

    Les camping-cars payent 3.5 livres pour la nuit. Le parking est fermé de 8 pm à 6.30 am donc tranquille la nuit. Parfaitement situé pour visiter la ville.

  • 4/5

    Stayed over night. Loverly and pieceful... Car park has welcome motorhome sign... Very close to the city. Short walk

  • 2/5

    4,5 £/24h
