Free on street parking, close to the centre and shops. We were in a big RV so had to put 2 wheels on the path. The main downside was noise... Constant cars & bikes racing past, along with people stood talking throughout the night. We stayed Friday night & the town was busy, so bear that in mind. A good spot if you arrive off the Le Shuttle late at night like we did.
Free parking, waited for a space but worth it.
At 4am I was woken up by someone trying to break in. I looked through the window as they were trying another door. I banged on the window and shouted at them. They left, but 5 minutes later they returned again and started circling the van. I shouted at them again, and they disappeared this time into the park area. I went back to sleep and had no further issues during the night.
No facilities around but lots of cafes/restaurants and a museum. Nice park. Stayed a few nights and fairly quiet but did hear some shouting in the night once.
