Parking in Stubbington

Where to park in the village centre and surrounding areas

Parking in Stubbington is generally straightforward. The village centre has on-street parking along Stubbington Lane, Gosport Road, and the surrounding side streets, and most of the time there are spaces available. There is no large public car park in the village centre itself, which reflects Stubbington's character as a village rather than a town with a formal shopping precinct.

The Co-op and other village centre shops have some customer parking. Spaces can be tight during busy periods, particularly around school run times and Saturday mornings, but nothing like the congestion experienced in Fareham or Gosport town centres.

Holly Hill Woodland Park has its own car park, which is free to use and provides a convenient starting point for walks through the woodland and onward to the coast. The car park can fill up on sunny weekends and during school holidays.

Crofton Community Centre has parking for users of the centre, and the schools have their own arrangements for staff, though school-run parking on surrounding streets can cause temporary congestion.

There are no parking charges or residents' parking zones anywhere in Stubbington. This is a notable advantage for residents, particularly those who have lived in or visited areas where parking restrictions and permits are the norm.

For the most part, Stubbington residents park on their own driveways or on the street outside their homes without difficulty. The residential streets were designed with car ownership in mind, and most properties have off-street parking of some kind. Visitors to the village will rarely struggle to find a space.
