is this spot ok for overnighting, or has anyone any better suggestions?? Cheers oh and some prices would be useful thanks!!
B…
I don’t know where that is, but if it was in Brighton itself speaking as an ex coach driver, down in the coach park on Maderia Drive, I parked a coach down there for over 9 hours and didn’t pay zb all when you’re supposed to… 
Though the coach was ■■■■■■■ out gearbox fluid I could have used that as an excuse for not paying - I was “waiting for a fitter to come”

It is a long term council run lorry park which the public dont use. There are a few local companies that keep vehicles/trailers there overnight, one of them being a garbage truck so its not always the nicest smelling place. Its also right opposite the Dudman terminal so if there’s an aggregate ship being unloaded, expect lots of noise.
Do you need a proper truck park or are you ok with laybys?
This is somewhere I suggested on another thread.
Nothing on the A27 apart from a lay by with no facilities at Lancing. The bottom of the A23 at Poynings has a nice little parallel road which has a Marks and Spencer BP garage and a pub called The Plough (excellent food but expect to pay for it) BN45 7FN is the postcode.
You can park on the industrial estates on the Western side of Brighton near the seafront,at Shoreham.Pubs and takeaways nearby and a 20 minute walk to Brighton.
Second choice is Newhaven ferry terminal, then get the train or bus to Brighton for a meal out and nightlife.
At Newhaven there is Sainsburys and places to eat in town.
Free to park in the ferry terminal.
Third choice is Madeira drive, there is the big marina nearby for restaurants and a cinema,Asda too.
I have seen trucks park there with no problems.Concert trucks and large camper vans park there.
Nightlife in the week is busy due to students,quite a good vibe.
Or the Eastbourne area of Polegate on Chaucer industrial estate,Dittons Road.
There is a good bus service that runs late at night between Brighton and Eastbourne.
At Newhaven docks there will be Eastern European drivers running their engines all night to charge their batteries after running Sputnick satellite stations from the cab.
Free shower, if it is locked, as the freight check in staff for the key or ask in the cafe.
Chuff me Toby, he’s doing a night out - not having a NIGHT OUT!
I was highlighting the best place for grab a granny night out.
Where to see Pole dancers and some lap top dancing.
Is the parking at shoreham[adj]to the docks shut??

I stayed there about 2 weeks ago, it cost £3 for the night. It’s nothing special but it’s somewhere to park, the only thing that would put me off is the railway line is right behind you but to be honest, I dropped straight off an slept soundly and woke up with diesel still in the tank!
Desperate:

You were lucky to still have diesel in the tank,I’m fairly local and it is notorious for diesel theft.
