Heading to Newcastle in October for 3 days and really missing the Motorhome Parking app........What are the suggestions for parking in and around Newcastle. If no safe parking then what campsites would people recommend ?

On reading your post I clicked on the app and can still use it. It did ask if I wanted the premium version or the free version. I used the free version and it worked

Tullymore Forest Park is just up the road.

There is a car park in the middle of the town where Motorhome parking is permitted , it would not be for me as cars park all around you.
Tollymore is much superior .

We have stayed in Millstone Caravan Park midway between Newcastle and Bloody Bridge, on coast road towards Annalong , look out as easy to pass it, sloping incline, easier approaching from Newcastle direction. Terraced up the drive.

Also if you Google campsites in Newcastle.

Tullymore every time. It’s a good walk into Newcastle using the back gate and Tullybrannigan Rd. Bit of a climb coming back. The Enniskeen Country House is also a nice spot for a drink/meal. Millstone is a good site but not for walking into the town on the busy road. You would need a taxi.

Being built today, then alpha testing before beta. I'll definitely post here when things are closer.

That's a bit vague actually. The build was happening today, which is the first part of it going online after the initial hardwork of creating it.

Be great to have it back. We have tried to visit as many places when in an area and mark them out for future use.
