Arrived at car park thought it was free till I seen pay machine , £7.50 with the option to pay by phone but couldn’t as had no signal on Vodafone network. Still too expensive for walk on the beach . Plenty of vans on site looked like they where there for the night

We were told by a local that no one checks this place in the evening. We arrived about 7pm, stayed the night and left by 7.30am without issue. Beautiful spot.

We arrived in the evening to watch the sunset. Plenty of space. We didn't spend the night but seemed like a massive car park so would be easy to have your own space there.

Massive car park. £7.50 for the whole day and says no overnight parking but I spoke to a local there and he said the barriers are never put down. Probably would have been ok to stay but I went on a hot day and it was heaving so moved on to somewhere quieter near the canal (which was perfect) after watching the sunset at the beach.

Nice place. Sign says gates locked at 15.00 but they are not as I've left many times after that time. The NT website says its free to park after 15.00. No facilities.

I stayed last night and there were quite a few cars arriving and parking up with loud sound systems. They stayed til quite late. It's quite exposed to the elements and is nice in good weather (I've stayed been in lovely weather) but in high wind and rain it's not much fun.

Parc repris par le National Trust. Pancarte à l'entrée avec tarifs. Gratuit le soir de 18h à 10h du matin. Payant la journée pour les non-adhérents. Nous y avons donc passé la nuit tranquillement. Ronde de police pour surveiller que tout se passe bien. Nombreuses plages de stationnement. Beaucoup de promeneurs. Lieu à vraiment recommander pour la nuit : plage splendide, balade et lieu très calme.

Parc repris par le National Trust et gratuit pour l'hiver à venir. Je ne sais pas s'il le restera. Superbe coin mais beaucoup de va-et-vient, c'est un parking prisé !
