Car parking in central Bath is restricted as a result of the limited amount of space available. The information put together in this document should enable you to understand the options you have for parking in Bath and help you to decide on the best solution for you.
• In the first instance we recommend that you do not come to Bath by car. We are very close to the bus and train station (2 – 5 minutes walk). Nowhere in Bath is more than a 20 minutes stroll and bus services are very good. If this is not possible, the following options are available:
• There is a public car park very close to Abbey Green, in Manvers Street. Manvers Street is a long stay car park. You can park in it 24 hours a day. It is free overnight from 20.00 until 08.00. Charges are:
Up to 2 hrs £2.80, 3 hrs £4.00, 4 hrs £5.00, 6 hrs £7.00, 8 hrs £9.50, Over 8 hrs £12.00.
