Campaign for Real Aires UK - CAMpRA

Hi - I’ve just sent a very long email to the cabinet members at BathNES suggesting the following:
A) allowing motorhomes to park & sleep at Odd Down Coach Park for a limited time such as 48 hours (with a charge)
B) allowing motorhomes to use the water & waste facilities at Odd Down Coach Park (with a charge)
C) allowing motorhomes to park & sleep at Lansdown P&R for a limited time such as 48 hours (with a charge)
D) enabling motorhomes to use the water & waste facilities at Lansdown P&R changing facilities (or adding new service points) (with a charge)
E) actively promoting Bath as an all year round destination for short stay touring motorhomes using the P&Rs for up to 48 hours - and so avoiding the CAZ

I’ll let you know what I hear back!

Let's hope for a good response were booked into the marina camp site in July and it's £35 a night. So a cheaper option would be great and would surely get plenty of use.

I’ve just had a response from Bath..... I resent my email this morning as the Council has just had a big reshuffle - and the new Cllr responsible for transport has come straight back....

I’ve gone back to her asking for how I (or we) can help with regard to information etc that they need - and also suggesting that opening the (empty) coach park (and it’s services) to motorhomes could be the easy quick win

I’ll post as soon as I hear back.

Thanks Sian, really appreciated.

I had already been sent this and have had preliminary conversations with my colleagues.

I accept that this is a great idea, and would love to be able to have the resource to investigate it further. However, in the opening up of the City again, a lot of the economic development activity and team, including tourism, is already incredibly stretched on the projects they are currently working on.

I will put it in the mix for future consideration, but would prefer to be upfront about the possibilities currently.


Kind regards



Cllr Manda Rigby

Maybe time to look at this again!

They need our briefing document and details of Durhams new Park and Ride Aire
