When to Visit
Station car parks fill up early on weekday mornings as commuters arrive for their trains. Spaces can be scarce by 8:30am, so arriving before 7:30am gives you the best chance. Weekends are a completely different story — demand drops off sharply, with Sunday typically the quietest. The larger capacity means you’re unlikely to be turned away except during the busiest periods.
