Hopefully in the right section.

Here are a few questions about Dorridge station. Anybody help, please?

  1. Is there parking available on site?
  2. If so, is it free or chargeable?
  3. Is it secure and of low crime rate?
  4. Am I likely to get a space very early on a Saturday morning (0530)?

Is there any decent hotel accommodation within walking distance of Dorridge station, please?

Railtour ahead and considering options.

As ever, thanks in advance.

Dorridge is a Chiltern Railways station

Parking is available on site, at the station it's free
Around the corner on the otherside of the railway there is additional parking which was provided by CH but i believe is now Solihull Council, chargeable but for railway use

Dorridge is an extremely wealthy area so your vehicle will not attract any attention as it will blend in with all the other cars unless it's worth silly money.

The car park will be empty at that time every day of the week.

Pass on walkable hotels.

That's really helpful. Thank you. Ford Fiesta should be OK then.....
