Well signposted car park with plenty of spaces. 5 minutes walk to the beachfront. Not much security seen around.nnIf you’re using EE network the coverage is very bad especially at the beachfront area and coastline. Recommend to plan trip and where to go beforehand.nn£6.45 for 4 hours.nnMale toilets had a horrible stench. They are seen by staff that are parked beside these. Female toilets were apparently very clean. Toilets not well aerated and needs at least a fan.
I have now used 2 car parks Main Beach and Mermond Place in Swanage run by the local Council and I am not impressed. Both car parks are chargeable until 9pm but neither has any lighting it gets dark well before then at this time of year October and it is nigh on impossible to even see where the ticket machines are let alone try and use them in the dark. Also, the charges are too high given the lack of lighting. At least the parking bays are well painted, hence 2 stars. I couldn't add any photos 'cos it was too dark.
Good car park plenty of spaces, machines took cash/card. During high season it was £9 for 24hrs which was perfect for a beach day. There are also toliets 20p to open the door
Bloody hell this is expensive.nnIf you can, find street parking even if it means a walk to the town.nnWe had to park here as we had someone in the car with a back problem who couldn't walk too far otherwise I'd have searched for a parking spot on a side street.nn4 hours was over £7, we've found the average for that amount of time elsewhere in the area is about £3 - £4nnAnd to be honest Swanage town isn't the sort of place that warrants too much time to explore unless you're staying to eat or drink there.nnThere's some nice bars, coffee shops and quirky shops though plus a huge amusements arcade and a fun fair type place if they appeal.nnThere's also the Swanage Railway station, again lovely to visit but not enough to warrant a few hours of your time.nnThere's a lovely beach but gets very busy in summer.nnThere is parking along the sea front but at a price, no idea what the charges are to park on the seafront though probably quite a lot.
Large car park just 5 minute walk from town to sea front and 10 min to train station.nOur stay of 6hrs cost us £8.
