I’m taking my son to an event this Saturday afternoon near the elephant and castle area. Ideally I don’t want to train it (coming from Cambridgeshire) I’d like to take the Aston, anywhere in this area fellow owners use? John

There is a recent thread on here from DB9 owner asking same thing if you look back. Q Parking got good reviews for their various underground parks.
I faced same dilemma last week, was driving to Stanmore then tube but couldn’t face resh hour battle down A1 and back so did train Cambridge North and back easi-pesi. £50 return for the 2 of us but Cayenne would have used that in petrol.

Not sure if there is ncp there or not but in the immediate E&C area, it’s pretty dire for parking.
There is a block of flats just off the roundabout heading to the bridge that has a concierge with boom access. I go there to “visit” friends and get a parking permit from them biggrin

Alternatively I would park at Baynard House in the City by Blackfriars. It is normally quiet in the city on the weekend.

You will then just need to walk 2 mins to blackfriars bridge road and grab a bus, I 'think' most of them stop at Elephant and Castle but I am 100% sure the No.45 does. It is about a 10 min bus journey max, you could even walk it if it is a nice day it is a straight road.

Also it leaves you the right side of the river when you want to escape and can get across to the A10 relatively easily.
