The Travelodge has parking. Are you going to be staying there for one night? They might let you leave their car there longer.

It’s “limited “ parking and we don’t stay there until the return, having to ask if we can take bikes in to room didn’t want to push my luck.

Allowing bikes in the room is standard practice for Travelodge, so you won't be pushing your luck there.

With the car parking, contact Wiltshire Council and ask nicely. All the councils I've asked (various parts of the country, though I haven't tried Wiltshire) have had arrangements for multi-day parking in their car parks, though they don't advertise them. It'll cost, but not a lot. Sometimes they'll even advise you where best to park so your car is overlooked by a camera. https://www.wiltshire.gov.uk/parking-contact-us

Are you aware of the "use my drive" type websites? I put in a quick search on G and got one site. There were a couple in Devizes and cost £25 ish for 4 days.

West Devizes has some housing estates that I wouldn't worry about parking in. Widish roads, good neighborhood, etc.
