PARKING INFORMATION.

We are pleased to offer free, on site car-parking for any guests using our conference and banqueting facilities.

The car parking areas are best accessed from Barrack Road.  At the traffic lights, turn into the ground and drive straight forward, passing the yellow attendant's box on the right and the low-level two-storey car park on the left.  You will see a sign for 'Conference and Banqueting Car Parking'.  Follow the arrow down the road, as it curves to the left and it will lead you into a multi-storey car park.  Guests are free to park on levels one and two.  Levels three and above are not owned by ourselves so parking there is not permitted.  Should the unlikely event occur, of levels one and two of the multi-storey being full, guests are asked to use low-level two-storey car park.  The cost there is 30p per hour 8am-10pm

Please note all other parking spaces in the ground, other than those mentioned above on levels 1 and 2 of the multi-storey, are owned by the City Council and you do require either a permit or a ticket to park there.

Should guests require disabled parking, the City Council bays are available on the outskirts of the multi-storey, on the ground level.  However, it is possible for us to make other arrangements for disabled guests, given prior notice.
