Is it well signposted to warn drivers?
There is a small sign on a lamppost as you go in.... We only noticed when we went back down to see if there was any waiting time allowed. Also lots of warning signs on the walls
Entirely our fault, we should have seen the sign.
Just wanted to warn others.
It's best to wait outside in the swimming pool car park

I know the carpark by the boat hoist area in Portishead used to be the same. Daylight robbery but in fairness to both marinas the car parks would be continually rammed full if they didnt control it.

Plenty of signs around once you get in, but if you are just picking up and you don't leave the car you still need a ticket as the camera clocks you it seems.

We had the same issue at Portishead and sons car followed us in the get all our kit there. Marina said they could arrange exemption if we had told them in advance but not after we had unknowing left.

We insisted that we could reasonably assume that use of marina meant use of car park, and that it was up to marina to control their parking agent.

After 3 letters each way where we clearly told parking agent to take it up with marina and similar to marina mocking their lack of customer friendly interface, they gave up
