The space

The apartment block is situated in the corner of Pudding Chare and St. John’s Street. Parking is available on both of the streets. There is also a small NCP car park on St.John’s Street ( right next to the apartment block) which can work out much cheaper and more than the Council street parking ( maximum one hour for Council street parking. If you wish to park in the NCP car park, make sure you download the NCP app beforehand, as many problems has been encountered about downloading this app. Once it downloaded it is a breeze to use. Rates are around £2.70 per hour or £16 for 24 hours. The Council street parking are around £2.70 per hour , although it is free between 7 pm and 7 am. (Please check the exact details on the boards as I cannot take responsibility for the accuracy of the cost and times I mentioned as it could change anytime)
