Hi all, we are planning to ride the Sandstone Way over the weekend 3/4th June.
Can anybody recommend a safe parking spot to leave a car for the weekend? preferably free!!

I'd probably park here from my local ish knowledge. I'm in Newcastle.

Free, relatively safe as those businesses are open all weekend. No guarantees though!

Blimey. Hexham, along with perhaps Killearn Wilmslow etc is one place I wouldn't aspect people to have concerns about leaving a car...

There's scrotes everywhere. Hexham, like Rothbury and Morpeth has its fair share of undesirables. What about Riding Mill or Corbridge stations? I've parked in both overnight when I've been out. Wouldn't park at Tyne Green - not having done a boot sale at the mart one Sunday - that was a proper eye opener.

There's definitely scrotes in Hexham, just like everywhere. I once knew a wild bunch who used to be members of a kind of "community vehicle sharing scheme" for nights out in Newcastle. Different car every weekend. Not a single licence between them.
