Don’t get me wrong the car park is very nice but briefly there are two very annoying features. Firstly I drive a Citroen Relay van conversion which takes no more room than a car but the tariff charges half as much on top, it’s outrageous but unlikely to change. The second point is the hugely complicated and confusing method to pay. It is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma resulting in folks wailing with frustration.

Its all very well NT members blowing their own trumpet and being smug ( I have seen this attitude on other reviews) about it being free but if you dont live anywhere near any other NT properties it is not worth the membership. I would say parking here...
