Visitors will pay more to use main Dartmoor car parks

Dartmoor National Park Authority (DNPA) members agreed to the increase, which will add 20p to the cost for cars parking at Princetown, Haytor upper and lower car parks, Postbridge, Meldon and Lydford for 24 hours.

The half day charge (three hours) will rise by 10p. It brings the cost to park to £5.80 and £3.50 respectively.

Blue badge holders will pay £3.50, up from £3.40, and coaches and minibuses will pay £11.60, up from £11.20.

New charges will come into force after the statutory period of required advertising which is usually 21 days.
