    Perfect spot just outside town

  • Parking on Fishergate, YO10

    Easy to find, better than expected

    Margherita
  • Parking on Foss Islands Rd, YO31

    Fantastic value parking. Dropped the family and bags in York centre before leaving the car at the car park. Then an easy walk back to the centre of York for a few days break. Really convenient and so easy to book and also amend the booking online. I’d definitely recommend parking here.

    Easy to find, easy to leave. Staff very helpful.

  • Parking on Monkbar Mews (Pre book)

    Easy to book. Easy to find. Found it a bit strange we didn't speak to anyone when we arrived, didn't have a ticket for the window or anything. But would recommend

  • Parking on The Lighthorseman, YO10

    Really easy to find and just a short walk into York centre. We found a nice path along the River that was a minute away from parking.

    Laura
  • Parking at Sainsbury's, York, YO31

    I booked weeks ago and paid £20.60 to park for 5 days. Incredible value compared to Council car park charges especially as Sainsbury is very close to the City centre. I checked with customer services that my vehicle was registered and it wasn’t. I COULD HAVE RECEIVED A PENALTY NOTICE WITH ALL THE GRIEF THAT IT CAUSES. I had to drive around for a while to find a spot once but I would book to park here without hesitation if the price was similar.
