    I live in Dover...this car park is well known as a place where drug-users congregate, as it is not overlooked by any houses really. As parking is free on the surrounding streets (single yellow lines, or no lines) locals would not park here, so you would be very isolated and potentially vulnerable. I would suggest finding a quiet road in the area, near to some houses, rather than parking here.

  • 5/5

    Stayed here for the night before catching a morning ferry. Arrived after 6pm and left around 7am so nothing to pay. Fairly empty car park so lots of flat spaces to choose from. Really quiet night so we slept well. Recommend.

  • 5/5

    A really good facility if it's used carefully. Our 2nd stay here ready for the ferry the morning after. Thanks Dover.

  • 5/5

    Stayed here for one night with no issues, a little noise but after around 11pm it was super quiet. We stayed from 6pm to just before 8am so didn't have to pay, but perfect timing as our ferry was at 930 and the terminal only 5 minutes drive away. Car park was pretty much empty on arrival (Sunday night) but then did start getting busier on the Monday morning, but overall would recommend!

  • 4/5

    Large car park but limited flat areas. Easy to find. Good location for the ferry port.

  • 5/5

    Peaceful night sleep, a 5 minute drive from the ferry port. perfect for an early morning ferry. there were other cans in the car park.

  • 4/5

    Overnight stay, quiet and peaceful enough. More campers there when we arrived so wasn’t on our own. Close to the ferry terminals and a McDonald’s for a pre ferry breakfast.

  • 5/5

    Slept here the night before an early ferry. Quiet, other campers here and felt safe. Would recommend. Free from 6pm - 8am. Is next to the health centre on the right-hand side of the one way street.

  • 5/5

    Klasse Tipp! Wir kamen tagsüber, zahlten £3,20 für zwei Stunden und tranken um die Ecke noch einen Kaffee vor der Fähre. Auch um die Mittagszeit viele Plätze frei.

  • 4/5

    Parking calme, idéal pour une nuit avant d’embarquer sur le ferry. Belle petite église à deux pas. En revanche, nous n’avons pas trouvé les toilettes publiques. Poubelle sur place mais pas d’autre service. Ça dépanne bien et c’est gratuit !

  • 3/5

    It’s a great spot if you’re taking an early ferry or if you’re arriving late. I’ve been here twice and there were always other campers there. It wasn’t quiet until around midnight, what with campers arriving/ walking their dogs etc. Good internet, street lamps, not quite level but acceptable. Gratis until 8 am

  • 3/5

    Parking quite level and free between 18.00 and 08.00. Easy acces from A road. Plenty of space. Ideal stop for a night to catch an early Ferry. Some local guys hanging around in the park and some street noise but not unsafe. Several campervans spending the night here so you’re not alone. Supermarket and KFC nearby.

  • 1/5

    absolut eklig überall Müll und Ratten. sind sofort wieder weg

  • 4/5

    Parking para pasar la noche si vas a coger el ferry. Algo inclinado. Sin servicios.

  • 3/5

    No noise great for ferry close to shops toilets close at night

  • 4/5

    Great free park up just a few minutes drive from the ferry port. Very quiet night until the seagulls wake at dawn, then you seriously do need earplugs! It's our second visit, would highly recommend if catching the ferry.

  • 2/5

    Parking très bien positionné pour le départ en ferry. Assez bruyant. Rien d’exceptionnel. Places en pente et assez étroites pour les gros gabarits.

  • 5/5

    gratuito dalle 18 alle 8 perfetto per i traghetti: passeggiata in città. c'erano almeno altri 10 camper.

  • 5/5

    parking proche du centre ville , dimanche... 10 camping- cars de présents. Par contre ville très calme le dimanche soir. peu de restaurants ouverts, les seuls sont des take away...

  • 5/5

    Great for overnight before/after ferry. Nearby Fried chicken takeaway pretty decent. Unfortunately had to park outwith space lines to allow motorhomes either side to open their doors.

  • 5/5

    parfait avant prendre le ferry le matin, dommage que certains vans prennent 4 places marquées au sol

  • 5/5

    vista castello, senza servizi ma tranquillo e comodo vicino ai terminal navali prima imbarco e dopo sbarco

  • 4/5

    Nice sized car park to stay without worrying. A few youths hanging around but no bother. No parking charges Sunday daytime.

  • 5/5

    Parking idéalement situé car proche du terminal du ferry cependant compliqué de se garer en arrivant a 23:00. J’adore le bruit des mouettes (c’est mieux que d’entendre des camions passer au ras du camping-car) , on se sent déjà en vacances.

  • 4/5

    Would be a 5 star if only for the very noisy seagulls but handy for an alarm for an early ferry. No overnight fee. Felt safe as there were lots of other campers.

  • 4/5

    Great place to stop for a quick kip before the ferry. arrived at 1am and left at 5am. quiet and full of different shape and sized vans.

  • 5/5

    usa maltempo il nostro traghetto è partito con circa quattro ore di ritardo per cui siamo arrivati a dover all'una di notte ora britannica. Grazie a park for night abbiamo trovato questo parcheggio e confermo tutto quello che è stato scritto il posto c'era Era tranquillo ed è gratuito tra le sei di sera e le 8:00 della mattina e si può pagare sia con le monete che con il cellulare o le carte

  • 3/5

    Parking pratique et gratuit pour passer la nuit avant de prendre le ferry du lendemain matin. Cris de mouettes la nuit sinon très calme.

  • 4/5

    Arrived after 6 lots of spaces. Had a peaceful nights sleep ready for early ferry . Would definitely stay here again.

  • 3/5

    Certes, c’est un parking banal, sans services (WC fermés en ce mois de juillet 2023 ou alors on n’a pas trouvé les bons). Mais gratuit, plutôt calme la nuit et très pratique pour sa proximité avec le terminal de ferries. Pas mal d’autres vans, fourgons ou camping-cars étaient d’ailleurs stationnés mais il restait de la place pour les arrivées tardives. Un bon plan.

  • 5/5

    Quiet, with only seagulls making a bit of racket in the morning. Few campers and motorhomes about. It's convinent for the early morning ferry.

  • 5/5

    There loads of motorhomes here seems safe this car park is behind a police station and there shops and take away food 2 minutes walk

  • 4/5

    Great stop over for ferry. 5 minutes from port. free after 6pm. Quiet night except for seagull's that never sleep!

  • 5/5

    Arrived 2am and left early to catch a ferry, this spot was perfect. There were plenty of parking spots and it was easy to find. It is a 10 minute drive to the ferry. Very loud seagulls though!

  • 5/5

    quiet place for a night arrival

  • 4/5

    Great evening one night park up to catch an early ferry. Arrived late and night and left early morning. Did the job perfect.

  • 4/5

    Haben hier eine Nacht vor der Fährfahrt geschlafen. Schön war es nicht, aber kostenlos und viele Stellplätze. Flugzeuglärm und schreiende Möwen inklusive, aber ok für eine Nacht.

  • 4/5

    Netter Parkplatz, kleiner Park nebenan, schöne Häuser drum herum. Nicht so gut geeignet für große Wohnmobile (6,5m). Wir haben deshalb für den Tag zwei Tickets gezogen (standen auf 1 1/2 Parkplätzen). Über Nacht viele Wohnmobile aber sehr ruhig und kostenlos über Nacht.

  • 4/5

    Great stop off before the ferry. Lots of other vans and very quiet night. Lots of friendly gulls in the morning...

  • 4/5

    perfect for one night before the ferry. free from 6pm till 8pm. lots of other motorhomes there so doesn't feel unsafe at all. Morrisons a 5 min walk down the road also.

  • 4/5

    Good for one night before the ferry, quite a few other motorhomes around. Only issue was no toilet could be found nearby and a bird that sounded like a squeaky dog toy until dark.

  • 4/5

    Good spot for one night

  • 3/5

    Time wasters screeching tires of their cars near our motorhome with loud music in the evening and seagulls singing all night, i advise the use of earplugs. You can park your motorhome here occupying two bays but as described in the official dover council website you shall buy two tickets. free overnight (from 6pm to 9am).

  • 1/5

    Don’t park your motorhome during the day! We got fined for parking beyond the markings. Even though we paid for 4 hours parking

  • 5/5

    Great place for 1 night, free parking from 8pm - 6am, a minute away from the ferry. Enough level ground, other campers. Would recommend if your looking for free safe parking.

  • 3/5

    ok stopover for one night. The seagulls didn't stop squawking all night, though!

  • 5/5

    Haben hier 2x für die Fähre übernachtet. Die angeblichen Toiletten haben wir nicht gefunden, aber es ist alles in ein paar Minuten Fußweg erreichbar. Mit anderen Campern hier ruhig gestanden und gut geschlafen.

  • 3/5

    As everyone said great stop over for the ferry. Arrived around 11.30 plenty of space. Had a bad experience as a car pulled up at 2am and blasted music so loud till 2.30am and the odd boy racer but it was the weekend. Would stay again for convenience and closeness to the ferry terminal

  • 4/5

    Wie schon oft zu or geschrieben: super Parkplatz, um am nächsten Tag die Fähre zu nehmen. Abends waren noch einige Leute (Jugendliche?) auf dem Parkplatz unterwegs, aber in der Nacht war es ruhig. Die Toiletten haben wir leider nicht gefunden..

  • 4/5

    Confirmation des avis précédents : excellent arrêt pour la nuit afin de prendre le ferry le lendemain. Nous aurions mis 5 étoiles mais quelques jeunes énervés et un peu de rodéo voitures mais calme à partir de 21h. Nombreux campings cars et vans donc sentiment de sécurité. Attention au temps de passage frontière nous avons presque raté notre ferry en se présentant pourtant 1h avant le départ.

  • 4/5

    Update: parken ist jetzt noch zwischen 18 und 8 Uhr gebührenfrei. Für uns der beste Platz in Dover um die Nacht vor der Überfahrt zu verbringen.

  • 5/5

    Very quiet, free of charge overnight from 6pm to 8am. Nice parking near the ferry!!

  • 5/5

    Spent a quiet peaceful night before catching the early ferry. Arrived late but there were spaces available, other campers parked there too.

  • 3/5

    tranquilo, plano y con muchos aparcamientos disponibles. no muy bonito, pero buena opción para pasar la noche antes del ferry

  • 5/5

    Great place for an overnight stop before the ferry. Free to park and we've always arrived after 11pm and still found a space. some places a bit wonky but mostly level. feel safe and plenty of other motorhomers parked up. Not the quietest place but wouldn't expect it to be.

  • 5/5

    quiet and safe, cctv in the car park and completely free from 5pm to 9am, few other vehicles parked up whilst we were there but still plenty of space

  • 5/5

    Great park up before catching the ferry. There were between 5-10 other vehicles there with us and we had a really quiet night.

  • 5/5

    Great location 8 mins to ferries & v quiet overnight. Free between 6pm & 9am.

  • 4/5

    Quiet night sleep before getting the ferry. Nothing special but would stay again for the ease and location! Stayed there with 3 other campervans.

  • 3/5

    Easy to find, there were only two other vans in the car park. Plenty of spaces. We stayed here before getting the ferry to Calais. The car park started getting busy around 8.30am. We would certainly park again. We love this app!!

  • 4/5

    Great little spot. Flat ground. Easy to find. Free overnight until 9am. For morning coffee and great breakfast (and toilet), try White Cliffs cafe only 100m away. Opens at 8am.

  • 4/5

    Slept really well here, very quiet considering it's location. There were a few young people around early in the evening but they were fine. Really close to some great eateries too.

  • 5/5

    Super Parkplatz, groß genug viel Mobile bis 8.00m. 24 Std 9.60 Pfund.

  • 3/5

    Great for night but expensive in the day

  • 2/5

    Bylo by to vyborne misto na prespani pred rannim trajektem, kdyby tu mladez nedelala hlucnou diskoteku z aut. Spat se v tom nedalo, museli jsme ujet a prespali jsme v nejake ulici do 4h rano, pak jsme odjeli na trajekt.

  • 3/5

    Kostenloser Platz zwischen 18 Uhr und 9 Uhr. Es ist schon ein wenig Betrieb aber man ist auch sehr im Zentrum der Stadt. Toilette war entweder zu oder nicht zu finden. Es war aber auch schon nach 20 Uhr als wir ankamen.

  • 5/5

    Perfect for early ferries. Arrived very late/early and there were still spaces albeit on a slight incline. No noise in the night and free parking if you leave before 9am

  • 4/5

    Prima plaats als je erna naar de ferry moet. Inderdaad wat luidruchtige jongeren maar die moesten van mama ook op tijd naar bed.

  • 3/5

    Free and flat parking overnight. Many other RVs and a few campers. Fine for early morning ferry access, otherwise I wouldn’t go out of my way to stay here- street lights and sound disturbed my sleep.

  • 3/5

    abbiamo passato una buona nottata in questo parcheggio nonostante fosse sabato notte. anche la mattina molto tranquilla, probabilmente perché è domenica.

  • 5/5

    really good sport I have used this to get the ferry the next morning

  • 4/5

    Nice place to park except for a bunch of guys racing in and out with their cars and loud music. They came back in the morning at 6. If you want to stay best to park away from the day center where those types are hanging out.

  • 3/5

    très bien pour prendre le ferry le matin, mais les mouettes et goélands sont très bruyants au lever du soleil

  • 4/5

    Netter Platz für eine Nacht. Kostenfreie Parkzeit beachten. Gerne wieder.

  • 5/5

    Perfect stop for early ferry crossers. Parked for a few hours plenty of space and free. Ideal spot for the port

  • 2/5

    Lovely parking plenty of space but very noisy due to a grouper of young people shouting all night.

  • 3/5

    Parfait pour prendre le ferry le matin. Un tt peu bruyant la nuit mais ça va. Beaucoup de places. Château à 20 mns à pieds(Cher mais ça les vaut) .

  • 4/5

    Bien pratique car près du centre ville et du départ du ferry mais les toilettes n existent plus.

  • 3/5

    il posto è buono, ampio e in piano. Un gruppo di ragazzi ha fatto un po' di schiamazzi ma sono andati via prima di mezzanotte. Il problema grosso per me sono i gabbiani, che fanno un sacco di casino in continuazione. Io ho il sonno leggero e mi hanno tenuto sveglio buona parte della notte.

  • 5/5

    We stayed free from 2am-9am before getting the ferry. Lots of other campers when we arrived but no problem finding a flat(ish) space. Gulls were the only noise.

  • 3/5

    Some late evening noise from locals gathering. Gulls seem to be a constant. Free from 18:00-09:00. £1.60 ph outside of that. Regularly see 5-10 vans overnight here, now Temple Erwell is restricted

  • 4/5

    I stood here after arriving with the late ferry. A lot of campers were already there. The night was quite good. Not too noisy. There were a lot of seagulls though. I liked the sound. Only one loud car arrived. Shut of his sound system pretty soon and left peacefully. Would stay again here. Maybe when I go back on the ferry.

  • 5/5

    Quiet apart from the sound of seagulls. No boy racers but then it was mid-week and tipping it down. Very convenient for an early ferry. Many vans and motor homes stayed overnight.

  • 2/5

    Stayed for one evening whilst getting a very early ferry the next day. Few campers, a lorry, a coach and some boy racers. Not really that quiet. It’s a car park at the end of the day. Definitely better places to stay.

  • 5/5

    NEU erst ab 6.00pm bis 9.00am kostenlos. Ansonsten 1,60£ pro Stunde oder 5,60£ für 5-24 Stunden. Haben hier eine ruhige Nacht verbracht bevor wir früh morgens auf die Fähre sind.

  • 5/5

    Quiet and comfortable. Public toilets are closed so the description in park4nite should be updated.

  • 5/5

    Emplacement parfait, à proximité du ferry! Nuit très calme, même le samedi soir. Nous étions 6 camping-car au total à dormir sur place, nous nous sentions en sécurité, la ville est très calme. Je recommande fortement ce parking!

  • 5/5

    Nach der Fährüberfahrt um Mitternacht auf dem Parkplatz angekommen, war ich ganz alleine dort, aber fühlte mich sehr sicher. Zudem sehr ruhig bis um 9.00 Uhr wi ich los bin. Und das noch gratis.

  • 5/5

    Nice view of Dover castle from the car park. Pretty empty when we arrived 6:45pm 24th April 2022. But feels quiet and safe

  • 5/5

    Sehr ruhiger und sauberer Parkplatz im Zentrum von Dover. Nur wenige Minuten vom Fährhafen entfernt.

  • 5/5

    excellent spot to get ya head down for the ferry. walking distance to all amenities and only 3 minutes to ferry port, free and quiet at night, what more could you ask for?!

  • 4/5

    Excellent. Stayed here overnight - Little bit noisy in the morning was the only negative. Free parking on a Sunday.

  • 1/5

    Pulled in here to wait for a few hours in the evening before our ferry but didn't stick around due to some very intimidating groups of men shouting, drinking and driving around in circles - almost crashing into our van. We aren't bothered by boy racers usually but this place was very creepy and uncomfortable.

  • 3/5

    Useful for stopover but seems to be a local youths meeting place. Noisy for a few hours with a car playing loud music all helped to make it a little unpleasant.

  • 5/5

    Stayed here night before catching ferry, good quite spot, one other van pulled in. Free overnight parking between 5:00pm and 9:00am.

  • 5/5

    Great for overnight stop to or from Dover. very quiet, off the main road. we've stayed here a few times and there's always another van. No facilities but that's not what this is for, what more do you want for free ?

  • 2/5

    Kostenloser Parkplatz und ohne Stau ist man in ein paar Minuten am Hafen. In der Nacht waren viele zwielichtige Gestalten unterwegs aber unter den anderen Campern haben wir uns relativ sicher gefühlt.

  • 2/5

    Good to wait for the ferry, free between 17pm and 9am but homeless and drunk people around the area. No public toilets close by, the next in walking distance are closing in the early evening.

  • 2/5

    Very convenient for ferry, basic car park but fine for a night. Number of homeless camping and drinkers around and noisy until 1pm but caused no hassle.

  • 4/5

    Für eine Nacht ganz in Ordnung. Toiletten gibt es definitiv nicht mehr. Sind erst abends angekommen. Am darauf folgenden Tag Dover besichtigt und dann auf die Fähre. Diese ist in wenigen Minuten vom Parkplatz aus erreichbar. Für uns war es somit perfekt.

  • 4/5

    Videoüberwachter Parkplatz. Super für eine Nacht!

  • 3/5

    Idéal pour passer la nuit avant de prendre le ferry. Pa contre très bruyant. Des va et viens tard le soir sur le parking, les camions poubelles le matin et les goélands jolis mais extrêmement bruyants.

  • 5/5

    Great place to stay for the night. Felt very safe as it is right behind the police station. No public toilets available any longer. Very close to local shops. Would highly recommend if you need a free space to stay overnight. Also spoke to the parking warden and he confirmed free parking for motorhome from 5pm-9am.

  • 5/5

    Exactement comme décrit plus haut et plus bas. Grand parking sans restriction de hauteur. Parfait pour passer la nuit avant de prendre le ferry.

  • 2/5

    Lugar algo ruidoso, coches llegando constantemente con la música alta. No permiten pasar la noche y no nos dio mucha confianza.

  • 1/5

    No autocaravanas

  • 3/5

    Il semble que dormir n'est pas permis, le 18 août tous ceux qui dormait dans leur véhicule ont récolté un procès verbal, nous nous étions réveillé de bonne heure à cause du ferry nous l'avons pas eu

  • 4/5

    Lugar ideal para dormir cuando llegas tarde con el ferry.

  • 4/5

    Öffentliche Toiletten definitiv geschlossen. Die nächsten befinden sich ca 900m Fußweg entfernt.. sind aber nicht empfehlenswert

  • 4/5

    Parking correct. Surtout pratique pour le ferry le lendemain matin. Grand et proche du centre.

  • 4/5

    Parkplatz recht laut. Aber sonst ganz in Ordnung

  • 3/5

    Hard standing car park close to main road but not too loud. As a place to park up in the evening for free before grabbing a ferry its great, pretty it is not. Perfect for our purposes though. There IS a sign that says no overnight camping...

  • 2/5

    Dover gave us a really bad vibe. lots of drunks around and boy racers. didn't stay at this one. although you can.

  • 4/5

    Grand parking gratuit la nuit à 2 km des ferrys. Très bien pour attendre un bateau.

  • 5/5

    Great place to stay but be aware there is a notice board above the main charging board indicating a penalty charge for camping

  • 4/5

    Y avons passé une nuit calme malgré l'environnement urbain. Très bien pour attendre le ferry.

  • 1/5

    NO aparcar Autocaravanas aquí, multan con 70£, a mi me la han puesto, a pesar de pagar ticket como autobús para evitar problemas, 1,80£ la hora.

  • 5/5

    Great place to stay overnight and it's free. Plenty of space to park close to pub and restaurants.
