The site is at 4-5 Henley Street in Stratford-on-Avon, so Windsor Street is the most direct choice when keeping the walk short is more important than parking beside the entrance. The museum usually opens seven days a week, with Monday hours of 10:00 to 17:00 listed by the operator (themadmuseum.co.uk). Windsor Street also serves as the coach drop-off and pick-up point, and the museum operator gives the walk to the site as two minutes (themadmuseum.co.uk). Blue badge holders can park at Windsor Street free of charge in District Council car parks (themadmuseum.co.uk). ## Rother Street and Riverside Coach Parking Near Henley Street Rother Street car park is another named town-centre option, and blue badge holders can use it free of charge under the District Council car-park arrangement (themadmuseum.co.uk). It is useful for drivers who need an alternative to Windsor Street while staying within the central Stratford-on-Avon parking area. Riverside coach park is a 24-hour coach park at CV37 6BY, around five minutes on foot from the museum (themadmuseum.co.uk). Windsor Street Coach Park at CV37 6NL is the designated coach drop-off and pick-up point and is two minutes away (themadmuseum.co.uk). These coach facilities are particularly relevant to larger groups, while ordinary visitors arriving by car are directed towards the town-centre car parks. Show map of Stratford-upon-Avon ## Town-Centre Demand and Parking Rules Around Henley Street Parking pressure is likely to be greatest when the town centre is busy, because the museum is in Stratford-on-Avon town centre on Henley Street and the attraction usually opens seven days a week (themadmuseum.co.uk). A visit takes about an hour to go around the museum, according to the operator (themadmuseum.co.uk), so short-stay demand can build as visitors arrive throughout the day. Coach movements are handled at Windsor Street Coach Park, which the museum identifies for drop-off and pick-up, while Riverside is listed as the 24-hour coach park (themadmuseum.co.uk). Blue badge parking is free in all District Council car parks, including Windsor Street and Rother Street (themadmuseum.co.uk). Drivers should use the named car parks rather than treating Henley Street as an informal parking area, as the museum address is in the town-centre setting. ## Parksy Spaces a Few Steps From the Museum Parksy lists five priced spaces 61 yards from the site. A further Parksy option at Grosvenor Hotel Stratford-Upon-Avon is 0.2 miles away and costs £6 an hour. The five closer listings are all 61 yards from The MAD (Mechanical Art and Design) Museum, making them a practical alternative to the named public car parks for drivers who prefer a bookable space. The listings cover a driveway, hotel-related spaces and other off-street options around Stratford-on-Avon. ## Stratford-upon-Avon Parkway Station and the Walk Into Town Stratford-upon-Avon Parkway railway station is the nearest station to the museum, at 1.4 miles away and a 29-minute walk. It provides the clearest rail-and-walking alternative for visitors who would rather avoid town-centre driving and parking. From Stratford-upon-Avon Parkway, the route continues into Stratford-on-Avon towards the town centre and Henley Street. The destination is at 4-5 Henley Street, CV37 6PT, placing the final approach within the central streets where the museum, Windsor Street car park and coach facilities are grouped. The station walk is longer than the two-minute approach from Windsor Street, but it avoids searching for a space near the attraction.
