    Nice place, not very well sheltered and near 2 junctions on the main road. Dambusters inn a 10 minute walk away but very steep hill to walk up on the way back. stayed 2 nights and saw the Lancaster bomber flyover to commemorate the anniversary of the Dambusters raid.

    Good overnight stay.road traffic quiet after 11pm. People visiting in cars but not a issue. Slept well will use again

    I agree with other posts. Quite noisy with traffic. Locals (Youths and possibly Doggers) use this area as their meeting spot . It does go quiet later in the evening and starts again around commuter travel time. that said, good views and clean area.

    I believe this to be a dogging spot.

    I would recommend this stop to anyone, it was level, quiet after 11pm and it has bins, the view was fantastic and its called tillbridge Lane viewpoint, great walk to the pond too! there was some strange guy that was acting suspiciously but thats the only thing that was wrong

    Have stayed here for the last 3 nights as working in Thorpe le farrows about 2 mile away beautiful views. you do get the odd hash smoker and the odd boy racer but all quiet by 11 pm haven't been woken up in the night once yet. highly recommend this spot no parking restrictions no height barriers

    Nice view, no facilities, nice and flat, few miles out of town, at junction of busy roads so pretty noisy early in evening and morning, nice walk down to pond over fields, good for quick over nighter

    Road noise until late in the evening, lots of visitors to the car park during the evening. Dambusters Inn good value and good food, full of original memorabilia. Stayed a night.

    Fine little spot with a lovely little view to wake up to in the morning. No facilities but a good place for a night for the off grid camper

    Free parking. We stayed one night. No facilities. Road sounds but nothing out of the ordinary. The parking is along side the road. We had dinner at Dambusters Inn, nice food and price in the village nearby.

    Lugar muy sucio y ruidoso, justo para pasar la noche . Sin restricciones de altura.

    Nice little place with nice view. Ideal for a one night stopover on way to East Coast.
