Driving up to Scotland and family want to stop at Meadowhall on the way, not my idea of fun! Is there anywhere I can park my car & caravan?

Oh my goodness.

Even if there was, I think it would be awful of us to tell you and put you through the trauma that is Meadow-hell.

Tell them you asked, and we all said its just not possible!

To be honest I don't think that there is anywhere to park a car and caravan. Obviously there are loads of parking spaces but I am not sure you would get them in the carpark. If you did you would probably be better trying to park near the cinema in the car park at that end. Not sure how tight the entrance is though.

Although it's a massive shopping centre it's all High Street shops nothing really different. I avoid Meadowhell at all costs! Luckily my daughters are old enough to take themselves now.

I too think you would struggle too. It always seems to be busy in the car park so hit and miss if you got a spot big enough. Like Monks says the cinema end is your best bet.

Agree - honestly it's hell on wheels in there and the car park will be so tricky for a caravan, what about an overnight stop in York and you could then do it properly ?

Why not stay at HorseshoeLake campsite in the village of Wales, Kiverton, just 20 minutes south of Sheffield and just off M1. Check it out on the campsite search here. very quiet and only £15 a night. Meadowhall is indeed very busy, so why not try the Crystal Peaks centre to the south of the city.

Neither very good imo, when we went to Meadowhall it didn't have a TK Maxx and the TK at Crystal Peaks is not in the main centre. A shopping centre isn't right without one!

I wouldn't bother with Crystal Peaks I live about 10 minutes from there and honestly you could get round it in about an hour. There is M&S, Next, New Look Dorothy Perkins, Burton's and Clark's. They are the main high street shops. Google it.
It's ok as an alternative to Meadowhall or Sheffield City Centre if I can't be bothered to drive over that way but I certainly wouldn't have a day out at "Peaks" as we say!

There is TK Max at Meadowhall it's near Next at that end of the Mall.

There is one at Crystal Peaks but on the retail park we is on the other side of the road.

Yes, just had a look at Meadowhall on Streetview and at least one entrance (possibly all of them?) has a 2.1metre height restriction.

Might be just the excuse you need, Ross!

I drove past Meadowhall today saying we can't stop as there is no room for the car and caravan. What a shame.
