New Motorhome Overnight Parking Provision in South Devon
Following a study and consultation carried out earlier this year South Hams District Council have introduced overnight parking provision for self contained motorhomes and campervans at five car parks.
They state that overnight parking for self contained (on board toilets) motorhomes is permitted for any period between 6 p.m. to 9 a.m. at the following car parks for a maximum of two consecutive nights with no return within 48 hours:
Longmarsh, Totnes
Leonards Road, Ivybridge
Poundwell Meadow Overflow, Modbury
Park and Ride, Dartmouth
Cattlemarket, Kingsbridge
An Overnight Parking Map showing the locations has been provided by the Council, and of course we have details including Streetview links and GPS coordinates on our Motorhome Stopovers page.
To comply with fire regulations, motorhomes must ensure a minimum spacing of 6 metres is maintained between vehicles with no vehicle parked in-between.
