Rustic riverside parking for Waterside Inn guests
Dedicated to patrons of the Waterside Inn, this gravel car park offers approximately 25 spaces, including one disabled bay. The lot backs onto the River Soar towpath, separated by low fencing. No lighting is provided, so parking after dusk is discouraged unless attending evening events. Signage requests that vehicles not exceeding 2.0m in height use only the designated bays to avoid low-hanging branches. A short footpath leads from the car park to the pubs riverside terrace within a minutes walk. During summer months, outdoor events and live music drive high demand, prompting overflow to be directed to a secondary public lot 200 metres away. No charge is levied, but vehicles blocking the towpath entrance are subject to clamping.
