Southgate Moorings - Gloucester Docks Car Park

an easy to get to carpark in a great location. its a ten minute walk to Gloucester Catedral. the car park faces a dock. typical prices to park but i did notice its free after 6pm. also the spaces are car width. not car with its doors fully opened width. again this is a common thing but fuffs my goat. if it was free id expect a ding from someone elses car door or risk putting my back out when getting in or out of my car. but when its paid parking id expect enough space to open my car door fully. maybe the parking space line drawer still works off 1960's car dimensions.

Coming from commercial road and trying to navigate the endless stream of pedestrians crossing the road and then trying to turn right into this car park you then have to wait for a gap to appear in on coming traffic stopping for the same stream of pedestrians you encountered and all this happening whilst you hope somebody coming behind rams your car. Then you get into the car park and find its jammed solid and fight your way to the exit only to find everything blocked up with traffic waiting for that same stream of pedestrians! Glad I came on the bus!

After shopping in the mall, have a lovely walk along the water's edge. A Ferris wheel was being built whilst we were there.

Very convenient car park for visiting Gloucester Quays. I have the app "JustPark" which makes it easier to pay for the parking. So on a night out to the cinema the parking was perfect.

Arrived at 5.3o pm and put in £2.50 for 3 hrs, vie a ticket for 30 minutes!! Apparently you have to pay for last hour of day parking times and the evening rate totalling £2.90 which it then cost me. I was not the only confused user ! I would have assumed that technology in the machines could identify the timings better. The signage is a totally over busy and not helpful if you can’t read or understand it. Be warned if parking at end of day period.

As a place to park cars for an evening... not bad at all. £1.50 for the evening not too shabby at all

Went to the Christmas Market here, pretty good.

Nice place to visit. Markets, outlet shops, cafés & restaurants. The high st isn't too far either.
