Stackpole Car Park

Perfect Location to get to Stackpole Quays and also for Barafundle Bay Beach. You can pay by app (£3.10) or by cash.
Google takes you to the car park but says it’s a 2.5 hour walk. This is incorrect. It is not far at all. 20 minutes Max.
Check out my reviews on Stackpole Quays and Barafundle Bay Beach for more tips.

Usual NT con trick. "Cheap" stay is £3.00 for up to three hours, but not quite time for a decent walk- to Barafundle Bay, for example. Certainly not if you want to take a bit of time about it. Then the charge jumps immediately to £6.00 for all day. I found space outside the church, and there's a cheaper car park up near the cafe and the pub, proceeds to the church. Use those, don't support the National Trust's crafty upselling. Same thing happened to me at the Skirrid, they seem to know how long the average punter is going to want, and don't quite allow enough time at their lower rate. Robdogs.

There was a good amount of parking, including an overflow, the toilets were clean.

We were informed that the national trust car park ticket would also have been accepted at any other NT carpark within the time paid.

We didn't try the cafe but others were enjoying the ice-cream on a very hot day.

Beautiful place. Loads of parking. Friendly staff. Good prices for parking. Perfect. Decent toilets as well.

Easy enough to find on narrow roads with passing points.
2 disabled bays!
Reading the notices it only states that national trust members scan their cards and park free, no clarification for blue badge holders so we chose to pay to be safe.
On the meter it says £1.50 for 3 hours or £3 for all day. We decided that 3 hours would be plenty, so we put £1.50 in then the meter said £3 minimum payment!!
We put £3 in and then noticed on the ticket it only gave 3 hours anyway...I would air on the side of caution to those using the car park to check their tickets as its easy to get caught out with a fine.

This car park is large with a small cafe where you can get snacks, drinks and ice cream. Free to park for national trust members. It also has toilet facilities and amazingly pretty quay just beyond the toilet. If you are early on a good day, parking space is almost guaranteed. We started our hike to Lilly Pond from the car park. The view is incredible all the way.

Spoke to member of NT staff there - gets usually full by 10am, I visited on pretty much gloomy day and it was still the case. Narrow road on approach for about 10min, about 20 cars waiting on road to get in with 'car park full' sign displayed ahead. Part of a car park has parking bays, rest is a grass - if you happen to park on the grassy bit can you make sure you park close enough to neighbouring car? Saw lots of cars parked loosely apart from each other..and others scrabbled anywhere and everywhere.. No wonder gets full. Don't know why actually, Beach and walk were average

Saw reviews and arrived early at about 9am expecting loads of cars, think there were about 5, with masses of space. School holidays over! Did the walk and back around lunch time, car park was pretty full, but still had spaces! Great being a NT member. Thanks.
