    Brilliant ! At last, a town which welcomes MH’s. We were lucky to get a space though. Great fish and chips, good shops and walks. Damien Hurst’s statue of Verity was a bonus. Thank you Ilfracombe

    Close to harbour, Ilfracombe itself is a lovely town however this is just a car park. Bays are clearly marked for motor homes and big but also a bit close together. Big up ilfracombe!

  • 5/5

    We parked by the harbour until 8pm then moved to park here for the night (it was a Saturday) and got the last campervan space. Quiet and close to everything, would recommend as a car park location.

  • 5/5

    Great location centre of town. £9.60 for 24 hours parking. Quite at night but early noise from bins being emptied and scaffolding being taken down, not the car parks fault I know! toilets on the harbour, five mins walk. Bins on site. Not the most picturesque but certainly did the job for us. Two other campers about. Pay on app or cash.

    OK it's a car park but you are in Central of town stones, throw from harbour and beach plenty of pubs to eat at very quiet apart from church bell would we stay again yes lovely town go visit tunnel beach and look at the Victorian buildings

    Great spot. Close to everything. Nice & quiet, short walk to Spoons. Free from 20:00-08:00

  • 4/5

    Good location in the town centre of Ilfracombe, we used postcode EX34 9EF and paid via RingGo. Spaces are tight, but our transit conversion fit snuggly in a normal parking bay. There were a number of motor homes using the larger bays, it was busy a we did see one motor home turn up and leave due to lack of spaces. It is just a car park, relatively quite and there are toilets on the harbour arm.

  • 3/5

    Tight parking bays for motorhomes (perfect for van conversions), but fantastic location if only there were more bays and wider it would be 5 stars!

  • 3/5

    Parking calme juste à côté du port et des commerces.

  • 3/5

    Great place to park to visit Ilfracombe. Couldn’t give a higher score only because it was a car park with no facilities but really it should get a 5 and more councils should provide similar instead of putting up signs that motor homes aren’t welcome after 11.30.

    The address is indeed incorrect, it is the Ropery carpark. Excellent spot however, right in the centre of town. Wetherspoons is less than 5 minutes away - useful for the facilities. There are also 24 HR toilets along the quayside. We paid £2 out of season for 24hrs. A few other campers and vans parked up and we had no issues whatsoever. Great place to stop.

  • 5/5

    Fab spot, £2 for 24hrs ( winter tariff) £8 in the summer, close to the harbour. Loads of places to walk the dog. Like somebody else said, what was the planner thinking about, 2 of the spaces are nigh on impossible to get into or out of, nice that we have them to use, someone should have thought a little longer during the design process. Recycling bins at the other end of the car park.

  • 4/5

    Great location close to the harbour and high street. Only four spaces one of which would be difficult to enter/exit due to cars parking immediately in front of the space - a poor design. We spent two quiet nights here. A word of warning - we parked in the very corner spot and returned to a cracked sunroof. There’s a poorly maintained chimney on the building that the birds are pecking at and this is leading to the render becoming dislodged. We sustained heavy damage to the sunroof (needs replacing) and the bonnet.

  • 4/5

    Excellent town centre site explicitly permitting overnights with a handful of motorhome bays - wish there were more like it! There were about five vans there the night I stopped over and we had a quiet night. You might have to walk to the other end of the car park when paying in order to get a phone signal. BUT address given is very misleading - the car park is on Ropery Road: follow the one-way system past the church and work your way round to it.

  • 4/5

    No height restriction barrier right in centre and easy access to food , drink , harbour

  • 4/5

    Parfait, idéalement situé au cœur de la ville parking propre, calme et plat, prix imbattable : 1£ la nuit, forfait possible 24h pour 6£ ou 1£ de l'heure si juste un arrêt poubelle disponible, mais rien d'autre

  • 3/5

    Location is right next to harbor, and although motorhome parking is at quieter end of car park still expect plenty of noisy seagulls. £1 overnighting allowed as can be seen from signage.

  • 3/5

    Only parked here in the day. winter is £2 for 24 hours including free night parking. good access to shops pubs harbour. 4 marked motor home spaces .
