Local access and parking details
National Trust advice makes pre-booking essential for bridge access, including for its members. A space in a nearby coastal lay-by does not provide a rope-bridge ticket, and arriving by car without a booking can leave you unable to cross.
Before you go
Check your booked arrival slot, then follow staff directions at the B15 visitor car park.
