We encourage visitors to arrive before 10am, or after 2pm where possible during school holidays and Bank Holiday weekends to avoid our busiest times.
You can view updates on our Facebook page or live news feed.

Our vehicle charges make a direct contribution to help us to look after Moors Valley.
* Weekend early bird special *
On a Saturday or Sunday, early morning parking, until 10.30am, is just £1.70. You can pay when you arrive or anytime before 10.30 am but you MUST exit BEFORE 10.45am or normal charges will apply.
Ticketless parking
We have a ticketless barrier system, using number plate recognition. At the entry barrier, your number plate will be recorded and the barrier will lift. At the end of your visit, enter your number plate at the pay stations and pay the fee due according to the length of your visit. Alternatively, you can pay for a stay that is over 5 hours at any time. Cash and credit/debit cards are accepted, receipts are available. The exit barrier will read your number plate and lift automatically.
Parking for disabled visitors
There are 13 accessible parking spaces. Vehicles exempt from road tax due to disability may visit for free when you show your documentation at the Visitor Centre (terms and conditions apply). Please see our Accessibility page for details of the documentation required. Blue badge holders pay standard car charges if their vehicle is NOT tax-exempt for disability.
