Its 3 or 4 euro for the day. Cars are broken into all the time there though so be aware of that.

4 euro but you actually need to have it in coins to feed in on the way in. Not the most sophisticated.

It's not the safest place to leave your car. Personally I wouldn't.

Should be ok during the day and if you can park near enough the front.
I've parked there plenty of times without trouble but you do see a lot of broken car window glass about the place. If you do park there leave absolutely NOTHING on display in the car.

If it were my car I wouldn't park it there no matter how cheap the rate is or how convenient it is.

4 euro.

I park there regular with no issues. I wouldnt overnight.

As when parking anywhere dont leave anything on display.

Would you not be better off parking in roches street carpark if its still open by the time you get back to Limerick? For peace of mind at least

I used to work overlooking the car park and regularly witnessed the track suited folks breaking in. Broad daylight wouldn't bother them. I wouldn't park a pushbike there.

If parking in Limerick city one of the multistory car parks be safer. The other option i'd recommend is to park car at Charleville Train Station if its not too inconvenient? Aprox 2 hours to Dublin from there by train only issue is limited parking there. Another suggestion is to get a bus into the city and walk to the station and get train from limerick city?

Personally I would park in the multistorey on Roches street and walk up. It's only 5 minutes away and a *lot* safer.

My brother uses the train every day for work but only parks his car there on the odd occasion nobody can collect it for him and there has never been a problem.

If you prefer parking eleswhere for your own piece of mind. I also suggest Roches St car park.Best check what time it closes first.

Why If getting a train from Limerick would you park in Charleville ? 20 miles away on a **** road. Plus the train doesn't always stop there.

If it was me I would just drive to Dublin. Only 2 hours away/

What I often do is park in UL car park across from the stables, 2 Euro for car park and get the 10 Euro bus up from UL. M7 bus gets you to City centre dublin in 2hours 30.
