FAQs
Got questions? This is where you will find quick answers to everything about Zip World, from bookings and what to expect on the day to accessibility and our thrilling experiences. If something is not covered here, just reach out to the team. We are here to make sure your adventure goes without a hitch.
Does parking cost more on the day?
Parking is the same charge of £3 for the full day when you choose to pay on the day at the site or when you purchase before-hand with your booking. This excludes the Manchester, Windermere and London sites as they have an external parking management.
If I book two adventures, do I qualify for free parking?
If you book two or more different adventures (excluding redeeming vouchers) in one transaction, you will qualify for free parking at our sites. This does not include car parks under external management such as London, Manchester and Windermere. This can be across multiple days and multiple sites. During the checkout process you will enter the car registrations of each vehicle visiting. Your car will then be recognised upon entering the car park as free of charge.
Am I guaranteed a parking space if I pay for parking with my adventure booking?
If you choose to pay for parking online or over the phone before you visit, this does not guarantee you a parking space. There should always be enough parking spaces for our customers but spaces are first come, first serve.
What if my booking is postponed and parking has already been paid?
If your booking is postponed due to the weather for example, our team will be in touch with you firstly. Once your booking is moved to an agreed time and day, your parking will also be moved to that chosen day. No extra parking charges are needed if you have paid for parking when making your original booking.
If I visit two sites in one day, do I pay for parking at both sites?
Each car park’s tariffs will apply to that individual site and there are no multi parking options. If you visit more than one site in a day, you will have to pay for each site as the parking charges are separate.
Do I still need to pay for parking if I am a Blue Badge holder?
Yes. Blue Badge holders or anyone parking in a labelled disabled space will need to pay the standard parking charges.
What do I do if I visited Zip World and forgot to pay for parking?
If you leave a site and have not paid for parking whilst you were there, you have until the end of that day to pay for the parking. If the end of the day passes without payment on the day you visited, you will receive a fixed penalty notice.
What do I do if I receive a parking fine?
All fixed penalty notices once issued will be handled by Smart Parking. All appeals and disputes should be directed to Smart Parking.
Which sites do I have to pay for parking?
All Zip World sites require you to pay for parking. Our Windermere, Manchester and London sites also charge for parking but are operated under the management of the landowner. Location codes need to be entered when paying for parking:
- Penrhyn Quarry: 71700 (RingGo)
