Northumberland County Council - a unitary authority
It’s important vehicles only park in bays of an appropriate size. If you’re using our off-street pay and display car parks, it’s fine to take up more than one bay providing you pay for all of the bays you are using.
We are currently looking to improve parking facilities within a number of car parks to allow for dedicated motor home parking bays.
The car parks in Northumberland country parks are also suitable for parking large vehicles and motor homes.
Please note: cooking, camping and sleeping are not allowed in any of our car parks.
