Ignorer le parking principal avec restrictions de hauteur, suivre la route jusqu'au débordement (plus sympa quand même !). Excellente escale avec de superbes balades à vélo et à pied. Toilettes au cp principal. Pubs et commerces dans le village. Un endroit charmant.

Ignore main car park with height restrictions, follow road to overflow (nicer anyway!). Excellent stopover with great cycling & walks. Toilets at main cp. Pubs & shops in village. Lovely place.

Ignorieren Sie den Hauptparkplatz mit Höhenbeschränkungen, folgen Sie der Straße bis zum Überlauf (schon schöner!). Ausgezeichneter Zwischenstopp mit tollen Radtouren und Spaziergängen. Toiletten am Hauptplatz cp. Kneipen und Geschäfte im Dorf. Schöner Platz.

Ignore el aparcamiento principal con restricciones de altura, siga la carretera hasta el desbordamiento (¡mejor de todos modos!). Excelente escala con excelentes recorridos en bicicleta y a pie. Aseos en la cp principal. Pubs y tiendas del pueblo. Un lugar encantador.

    Absolutely gorgeous waking up here. We came to the first car park rather than the overflow as the toilets were open all night. There is a pub right across the road, although, unfortunately we didn’t have time to go there. Really quiet all night until (dog) walkers arrived at about 8am. Perfect spot for Alton Towers.

    Arrived to the overflow car park entrance to find a tree has been put in the way to block this off.

    Brilliant spot. 10 minutes from Alton Towers. Ignore the main carpark (with height barrier) and continue along for about 100 metres (follow around to the left) and you will get to an open area with a bin. Park there. If you get to the sports ground, don’t stay there. It is locked at night! The road is badly potholed, but don’t let that put you off. Very quiet. Lots of walks.

    Lovely and quiet place to park a motorhome. There’s plenty of space to park a large motorhome with a handful or spots up for grabs. It’s completely dark at night so you’ll need a good torch to guide you home from the nearby ‘The Cricketers Pub’. The pub is great by the way. £3.50 for a pint of Pedigree Ale. Beautiful!

    Handy stopover for in between 2 days at Alton towers. Be careful not to miss the turning after the main car park,like we did as the other road gets narrow. There is a 3 tonne weight limit bridge to cross into the overflow car park. Lots of dog walkers and cars for the cricket club but we weren't bothered by anyone. A peaceful nights sleep.
