    stopped there in Feb 2024. parking machine broken and no App or phone number so no way to pay. sign says no overnight stops. we moves just down road to a layby. lots of parking nearby. this place would be good if u want to stop but just not too sleep there.

    Great spot for a walk up Helvellyn, plenty of space for larger vans and no height restrictions, and no ANPR. Sign does say no overnight occupation in vehicles, sadly, but as of 02/2023 the ticket machine is still out of order so it's free!

    Perfect spot to use for the Helvellyn Walk, gorgeous views all the way. Please be aware the second carpark has extremely soft grass and mud which is on a slight slant so our van got deeply stuck, but lucky managed to get out after a long while. We followed the postcode and it took us somewhere further up than the destination, could of been our sat-van but heads up.

    super Ausgangspunkt für die Wanderung zum helvellyn Berg. der Automat war bei uns auch noch kaputt, weshalb wir nichts zahlten. das ist super, weil man für die Wanderung schon einige Zeit einplanen muss. wir haben für hin und zurück, plus kleiner Pause oben gute vier Stunden gebraucht. Übernachtung ist verboten.

    I parked a bit further down but honestly had the sun all day. Bank holiday Monday and tbh wasn’t overly busy cars came and went every half hour just for a break stop. There was an ice cream van which was amazing and weather lush. Nice walk down to the river too. There’s a parking machine but can’t imagine anyone checking or others paying. Definitely be back on a nice day. Also nice windy roads too

    Er zijn 3 grote parkeerplaatsen aan de westkant van het prachtige Thirlmere. Dit is de middelste. Voor alle drie geldt helaas "strictly no overnight parking". Wij hebben overnacht in een inham langs de weg. There are three large car parks on the west side of the beautiful Thirlmere. Overnight parking is strictly forbidden in any of them. We spent the night in a layby about halfway the lake.

    Didn't stay the night because there now is a "No Vechile occupation overnight" : /

    Terrific place right off the road, but tucked in behind a beautiful old church. Free when I was there. Right at a trailhead to Hellvelyn and co. Gorgeous spot. Very quiet.

    Great place to stay, the church is left unlocked so you can go inside and have a look around. Gorgeous surroundings and plenty of wild berries in the late summer. Parking sign said free parking indefinitely in Aug 18.

    Parquing que en teoría es de pago, pero en agosto del 2018 la máquina esta apagada. Se pueden hacer rutas de trekkinn desde el mismo parquing. Al lado de una ermita. Lugar muy tranquilo
