Where should you park when visiting Coleraine?

For Coleraine town centre, use one of the council car parks such as Abbey Street, Long Commons, the Mall, Railway Place or Railway Road. Railway Road has high capacity; pick the car park on the side of town you need rather than crossing the centre by car.

The practical answer

Coleraine has several council-operated town-centre car parks, so there is no need to rely on street parking.

Useful options include **Abbey Street, Long Commons, the Mall, Railway Place and Railway Road**. The council's current parking table shows **Railway Road** as one of the larger facilities, making it useful when you want more chance of finding a space.

If your destination is near the railway/bus station, use the Railway Place/Railway Road side. For the older retail core, Abbey Street, Long Commons or the Mall may be more direct.

Tariffs differ between sites, so compare the council's live table if you are staying several hours. The best choice is the lot that avoids an unnecessary cross-town walk, not simply the first one you see on the approach road.
