When travelling from Portsmouth, booked with Justpark, I like to use St Mark's Church in Derby Road. Reasons are - gated compound by the church hall with people coming and going, also a charitable cause, about 1/2 mile from the ferry port. I just checked it for 4 weeks in June/July and it came back at £52. I have used it at least twice for month long trips.

Some few years ago, we whet on holiday to the South of France via Eurostar and SNCF.
Was away a week or so. We drove from here in Cornwall to Bedford where our daughter was living at the time and left our car there. Stayed overnight and then took the train to Kings Cross for the Eurostar.

Had we not had somewhere to leave the car, we would have had to take the train to London (or somewhere and then on to Kings Cross) and then gone abroad with the car left safely at home.

Basically, what I'm illustrating, is that in order to go abroad having left your car parked somewhere, you need leave it somewhere safe.
Safest place is at home, or with people you know.

Does anyone know of somewher that I could leave the car for a period of up to 2 months at reasonable cost?

Might also need the same for port of tyne, Newcastle?

Considering campsites etc but has anyone done it and found anyone to be helpful?

thanks loads in advance
You could also look into caravan storage places, they should be suitable.
