Lower Gunstone offers a convenient location being within 50 yards or so of the Town centre shops and having easy access to Bideford Town's picturesque quayside, Victoria Park and playing fields. Also within a reasonable walk of Junior and Senior Schools.
Located within an area where Zoned Residents Parking applies (however within Lower Gunstone itself it is very restricted). Permits cost approximately �35 a year for the 1st permit and the cost of a 2nd permit (if required) is based on the road tax band of the vehicle being registered (maximum cost is approx. �65) and there is a maximum of 2 permits available per household.
However situated close by the current owners rent a single parking space which they pay �40 a month for and it is believed that this can be passed on to the new occupant.
Alternatively you have the Honestone Street car park & The Pill situated not far away which offers a choice of permits and season tickets.
