Parking at Ebbsfleet - which carpark - should I book in advance?

[torsie24]

Title says it all basically, would love some advice from people in the know.

I was all for pre-booking and going for the premier parking. But having looked at google maps/streetview it doesn't really look a if we get a whole lot more for the extra £10. Depends on the busniess of Car Park A on the day I think.

Experiences/opinions please?

we arrived at Ebbsfleet at around 9am as I recall, and parked in car park B (we had pre-paid). My car was parked in a bay literally less than one minute from the walkway crossing which takes you to the walk entrance to the station, very easy and all on one level.

Thanks Elaine. Both A & B look pretty great for us, so will risk pre-booking one of those I think

I always park in car park D, which is the cheapest and only a short walk from the station. Unless it's really important to be parked close to the station entrance I wouldn't pay the extra for carparks A or B. If there is more than one adult you can always leave one of you at the station with bags, children etc while the other goes park or pick up the car.

Car park D is very big and I've never seen it even close to being full however I always book as it's one less thing to think about later on.

I have never had problems parking in car park A or B when I go to Ebbsfleet, many commuters tend to get a lift to the station so always space

Thanks all.

D looks a bit far to be going with luggage and a buggy etc so will go for A/B.

I hear what you're saying about dropping someone at the station first HFJ but I'm a worry wart and closer = better for me first time there. Xx
