Hello everyone,

I often see requests on here for parking in the City Centre of Manchester, well I have some news.

At Strangeways, where Great Ducie Street crosses Trinity Way there is a new Secure Car Park Suitable for Motorhomes. Look at the map below if you were to turn the arrow around 180 degrees, that is the exact spot.

More good news is that the charges are very low for 24 hours. Advertised at Ģ3 a day but not sure about the T&C's.

I have seen two Italian motorhomes overnight!

1 Min to MEN and a short walk into City, big wheel within 5 mins.

If anyone needs any more info please ask.

Trev.

Thanks for the tip, Trev. We are visiting Manchester soon and were wondering whether the motorhome was an option.

Do you have any idea which company runs this car park? My other half is nervous about getting there and then being turned away.

Cheers, Simon.

Ahhhhhh, memories.

Long long ago I took my motorcycle driving test right there. On a 250 Royal Enfield. In the days when testers were brave and foolish enough to step out in front of you with their hand raised. He lived, I passed.

With the cost of hotels in Manchester this is quite a find if we can overnight there. Cost me a fortune last New Year to take my wife to a New Year's Eve concert at the Bridgewater Hall. All cheap rooms had long gone. But what a dismal place Manchester was. We walk
