Hi to all
This august I bring my daughters in Bournemouth for english course.
The school is in the centre of town near Boscombe.
Is simple to parking my campervan? I have a Roller team Zefiro of 7 meter long and 3,1 meter tall.
I see a lot of parking area but only for car, Is possible parking in side streets?
And last but not least I'm afraid about left-hand drive.
I stay here only for limited time, after I go to a nearest campsite.
Thanks for all suggestions
Andrea

Hi Andrea, I live in Bournemouth. The side streets in Boscombe are narrow and congested. Closer to cliff top, there is parking on the road, but it is expensive and you will need to arrive early as the spaces get taken quickly. The cliff top parking is day time only, no over night stays. What school are they attending?

Cotlands Road Car Park BH1 3QW -   has a maximum height 2.1m.

There is some on street parking on Derby Road and Manor Road. Derby Road is directly behind the language school. On the corner of Derby Road and Manor Road there is a hotel called Park Inn by Radisson - telephone 01202 293194 - I'd suggest giving them a call and asking if you can pay to park there for an hour or two. - They might just be helpful.

At 3m height, it is very unlikely you will be able to get into those car parks. As Bournemouth has a big problem with travellers setting up illegal campsites almost all of the car parks have 2m height barriers on them, I can't even get my Bongo campervan into a lot of Bournemouth car parks. The sea is not too cold at that time of year, but I wouldn't call it warm.

We have a roofbox on our Jeep and that prevents us from using a lot of car parks and we are under 2.5m high.

If I find space for parking my Camper and I pay my rate
I can stay here, or is only for car and bike?

Thanks for understanding

i don't think there is any restriction on type of vehicle but there may be a time limit, for example 2 hours maximum. Bear in mind that Bournmouth on a Saturday in August will be busy.. I hope you have already booked your campsite.
