Free parking is available in Front Street car park. A restricted on-street parking scheme operates from April - October.
Penrith Leisure Centre
Enforcement of the Leisure Centre car park was introduced in October 2008 due to a large number of the car park spaces being utililised by commuters to the town, resulting in parking problems for centre users.Leisure Centre users must obtain a ticket from the Centre reception and display in their vehicle.
Caravan and Camper Vans
Parking is available in Appleby in Broad Close car park (if vehicle is less than 1 tonne unladen weight).
Camper vans under 3050Kg are permitted to park in all Pay and Display Car Parks.
Motorhomes and cars pulling caravans, which are too large to fit in the standard parking bays are permitted to park within a parking bay marked for coaches in Sandgate car park Penrith.
Drivers of motorhomes and caravans are advised to purchase multiple tickets to cover the number of spaces the vehicle occupies. It is not permitted for people to sleep or camp overnight in caravans in the car parks.
Motorcycles
Motorcycles can park free in the designated motorcycle bays in Sandgate and Princes Street car parks in Penrith. Motorcycles parked in standard bays must buy and display a valid parking ticket. Solo motorcycles (two wheeled motorcycles with no side car) parked in an on-street disc area are exempt from displaying a disc, a motorcycle with a side car will need to display a valid disc.
Lorry Parking
Lorries over 7.5 tonnes are not permitted to park in the Council's pay and display car parks or enter the town centre between the hours of 7pm and 7am. There are two lorry parks in Penrith Davidson's Junction 40 and Penrith Truck Stop situated around junction 40 off the M6 motorway.
