Grand parking gratuit juste après l'hôtel Heights! Une fois que vous passez devant l'hôtel, il y a un panneau disant "Parking gratuit" sur le virage à gauche, n'importe où sur cette route est libre jour et nuit. C'est juste en face d'un magnifique point de vue de Chisel Beach qui est un must! Des toilettes sont disponibles à l'hôtel Heights si nécessaire. Endroit très plat pour dormir, voiture occasionnelle passant la nuit mais pas un endroit bruyant. Ce parking est très proche de certains endroits beaucoup plus agréables / plus pittoresques ici, mais en raison de COVID19, les lots sont bloqués pour le moment - cela vaut vraiment la peine d'essayer ceux avant ici. Nous avons regardé le coucher du soleil sur la route, puis nous nous sommes garés ici pour la nuit.

Great free parking just past the Heights Hotel! Once you drive past the hotel, there’s a sign saying “Free Parking” on the left turning, anywhere on this road is free day and night. It’s just across from a beautiful view point of Chisel Beach that’s a must! Toilets are available at the Heights Hotel if needed. Very flat spot for sleeping, occasional car driving past through the night but not a noisy area. This parking is very close to some much nicer/more scenic spots on here however due to COVID19 lots are blocked off at the moment- definitely worth trying those before here. We watched the sunset up the road, then parked up here for the night.

Toller kostenloser Parkplatz direkt hinter dem Heights Hotel! Sobald Sie am Hotel vorbeigefahren sind, befindet sich links ein Schild mit der Aufschrift „Kostenloses Parken“. Überall auf dieser Straße ist Tag und Nacht kostenlos. Es liegt direkt gegenüber von einem wunderschönen Aussichtspunkt auf Chisel Beach, der ein Muss ist! Bei Bedarf stehen im Heights Hotel Toiletten zur Verfügung. Sehr flacher Platz zum Schlafen, gelegentliches Autofahren durch die Nacht, aber keine laute Gegend. Dieser Parkplatz befindet sich ganz in der Nähe einiger viel schönerer / landschaftlich reizvollerer Orte hier. Aufgrund der COVID19-Parkplätze sind die Parkplätze derzeit jedoch gesperrt. Es lohnt sich auf jeden Fall, diese vorher auszuprobieren. Wir beobachteten den Sonnenuntergang die Straße hinauf und parkten dann hier für die Nacht.

    Free parking day & night. Nice dog walk over the wall and sea views in the distance. Bit of road noise, can't complain about free!

  • 4/5

    Toilets were bolted when we stayed so no access. Loads of parking options and a little bit of noise pollution early morning.

    Stayed here last night, perfect spot. Guy with generator here, after reading the comments it looks like he’s bought a new one very quiet. Saw him trying to start it and it seemed a new modern one. Brilliant park up, hopefully people can respect it

    February 2020 : Park up @ 10pm - 10am. FREE all Day & Night. Set behind the Heights Hotel, it’s very quiet with plenty of spaces. The Police came by, briefly stopping to have a look and then went away making for a safe park-up. “Leave It As You Found It”.

    Stayed 1 night. level parking on a fairly quiet road (although man with a generator is still there). Space for plenty of vans, would stay again.

  • 5/5

    Great place,, definitely use again if in the area

  • 5/5

    Good stopover. Road noise until 7pm and quiet afterwards. 3 other vans there with us. Toilets 50 metres away behind the Openreach depot.

    Very nice spot, fairly flat considering you are on top of a hill. Beautiful views all around, very nice walk! This is what parking4night is all about, public toilets on the corner, hotel cafe, great spot will defo come back here. Had no bother at all, it was windy so pack something to cover your ears if you go for a walk. Just beautiful, family of 2 adults and 3 kids,

    This is a lovely spot. However, predictably the person with the generator, (Swift m/home)as mentioned in previous reviews, is still here. We have no doubt that come next year, this place will be full of signs stating ‘no overnight parking’ Someone, turned up with a non motorhome and un hitched it. A real shame, as the locals are very tolerant and I feel the minority are potentially ruining it.

    very comfortable safe spot. same generator but so quiet once inside the van you can not hear them. the odd car going by in the night. Two local men in vans nearby made me feel very welcome and gave great advice on other spots around portland and shops etc.

    Same camper with the generator going, but didn’t bother us. Very quite night. Great free stop over. Toilets opened about 0830am

    found a spot here, there was a campervan also camping, they had generators on until midnight, other than that it's a good spot for the night if needed, handy having toilets so close and an AMAZING view point.

  • 5/5

    Lovely place to stop for the night felt very safe as there is a lot of other campers and motorhomes that stay there we only stayed for the one night but spoke to there others who were staying a few nights walking distance to the petrol station and shops and a pub that shows all the big sporting events, they have toilets here but only open till 5 in winter and 8 in summer.

    Very useful for staying overnight when windsurfing or kitesurfing in Weymouth. Quiet and there was 4 other vans when I stayed. I would definitely recommend.

  • 5/5

    Very quiet spot, completely free and a toilet block just nearby open 8am-8pm. Great views just a short walk away and if you're lucky you'll even spot the alpacas from the farm up on the hills.

    Just woke up 18/9/20 and WOW lovely sunset and awesome sunrise! Quiet in the night as your sheltered by two walls although it was abit windy last night but overall well worth the stay! Went for a swim in the clear sea to wake up!!

    Stayed here last night 4/8/2020, was quiet for most of the night, very windy as its on top of a hill, there are some sheltered areas but it is fairly busy in the evening. Good views of the beach on the one side and a short walk to the shops on the other.

    Free Overnight parking. Well worth the 6 mile drive from busy Weymouth. The view here is amazing. There is plenty of walks around (dog friendly). Toilets available as well.
