Trevone Bay

The car park is operated by a cowboy company called Alliance Parking. They operate a hidden camera which photographs car registrations on entering and leaving the car park. Any minor mistake in paying for parking will result in a £170 fine which the company refuse to dispute. A quick search of the company name will show hundreds of similar reviews. I strongly recommend not visiting this beach or any local businesses, unless you can get there without having to park in the car park.

I can vouch for other reviews.  Family received a ticket in Nov 21 for alleged overstay in August 21.  Dealing with a private car parking firm that is a specialist in this operation.  What can you do? I have not kept the receipt.  I think stay away from Trevone in future.
Not the first time we’ve been ripped off in Cornwall.

Had a lovely evening with pizzas on the beach back in the summer and had recommended friends to go there. However we have also just received a parking fine in the post when we definitely had paid for parking so we certainly won’t be back. Unfortunately as it has been almost 4 months we have no way to prove we paid. Hope the local businesses get involved with the parking issues as they will be losing lots of future business by the looks of the reviews.

We received 2 x £100 fines for popping into the carpark for a moment at the end of September. We wanted to support the surf shop. We will not be doing that again. Why have the local carpark arranged for Alliance Parking to take over - it a scam and we will not be returning to Trevose again. Please take note this car park has a detrimental effect on your local business - IS THIS WHAT YOU WANT?

We also received a parking charge, issued over two months after we visited, despite paying to park for longer than we were there.  Appeal to Alliance has been denied as they say we didn’t pay.  Obviously we no longer have the ticket to prove it.  I honestly think this is a scam.  We definitely won’t be visiting Trevone again, which is a shame as it’s a lovely coastal village.

Paid for parking at Trevone beach prior to arrival due to network availability via the just park app. Despite paying for the full day, the appeal has been denied as the car parks have two different names!!! Trevone Bay and Porthmissen. How would a visitor know this as they are next to each other and Porthmissen is the overflow car park. I have a £100 fine or £170. Do I take it to court? I will avoid this beach and the lovely local shop and cafe in the future.#visitcornwallfail #visitcornwall#trevone #allianceparking

Received a fine for non payment.  We parked 18:52:51 until 20:54:35 on 26/08/21. We always pay cash & can’t prove we didn’t pay as don’t keep the tickets after a certain period.  Alliance Parking have issued a penalty notice dated 01/11/21 of £60 rising to £100 & then £170.  They are clearly waiting until 10 weeks so that you’ve either discarded your ticket or just can’t recall that far back.  We were supporting a lovely local business & will not return because of Alliance Parking.  Not great ethical business practice - scammers in my opinion

Paid for parking by bank card, clearly showing in our account but got a whopping fine despite that!  Utter rip off which is a shame as the beach and cafe are lovely, we won’t be back.

I do hope someone with some authority in Trevone will act on these reviews. It is a wonderful place and very dear to so many people. We are all happy to pay a reasonable amount to park there but Alliance parking are just appalling to the extent that people who have been coming for years are vowing not to return. Please find an honest company to run the car park.

We were introduced to Trevone about 6 years ago and have enjoyed a superb holiday with our Grandchildren each year.
Ideal for all children with its Sandy beach and a rocky beach next door.

Lovely beach but was also sent a parking ticket even though I paid.

Beautiful find on our way back to holiday home from a day out, lovely pizzas and cider from the beach bar/cafe…. tide was out, has the best evening playing in the rock pools and stream out to the sea, kids absolutely loved it ????

Beach is ok. Car park one to avoid.
Despite paying and displaying, a few days after returning from holiday I got a pcn through, as did a friend who went to the beach a few days before.
Pizzas from the local bar/cafe were a little underwhelming and took almost 2 hours to make from order - so not great when you have hungry little ones.

In all, I won’t be returning. Many many nicer beaches nearby, with better facilities and reliable parking.
