The car park is free in the evenings and is about a 5 minute walk from the theatre, according to the Cotswold Playhouse website (cotswoldplayhouse.co.uk). Its published guidance identifies the car park and its evening arrangement, while the outside signs provide the on-site instructions for drivers. There is no dedicated disabled parking at the venue, although the theatre may be able to save a space when contacted in advance (cotswoldplayhouse.co.uk). An accessible parking space is also reported directly outside the entrance, with a driveway at the entrance (accessglos.co.uk). For a performance, the Parliament Street option keeps the final walk short, while advance contact is particularly relevant for accessible arrival arrangements. ## Named Alternatives Around Parliament Street Parliament Street Car Park is the named alternative in the venue's visitor advice, positioned opposite the Police Station and around a 5 minute walk from the theatre (cotswoldplayhouse.co.uk). The published guidance specifically describes evening parking there as free, making it the clearest non-venue option for a show in Stroud. The Parksy listings also show a driveway space at Stroud General Hospital, 0.2 mi away, priced at £4.50 a day. A space in Stroud is listed at 0.5 mi with a monthly price of £28, while a driveway in Stroud, Gloucestershire is 1.1 mi away at £12 a day. These spaces give drivers alternatives when the central car park is busy, with the longer-distance options better suited to visitors willing to walk farther. Show map of Stroud ## Street Restrictions and Enforcement for Stroud Performances The venue's own directions place drivers at Parliament Street Car Park, opposite the Police Station, rather than directing them to an unnamed residential street (cotswoldplayhouse.co.uk). The same guidance says the car park is free in the evenings and points drivers towards outside signs for the parking arrangement (cotswoldplayhouse.co.uk). Those details matter on performance nights because the signposted car-park rules govern the arrival point used by theatre visitors. The theatre also says there is no dedicated disabled parking, while advance contact may allow a space to be saved (cotswoldplayhouse.co.uk). Drivers needing the accessible space reported directly outside the entrance should plan around the venue's advance-contact arrangement rather than treating the entrance as general event parking. ## Parksy Spaces Within Reach of the Venue Parksy lists a driveway space at Stroud General Hospital, 0.2 mi from the venue, for £4.50 a day. A second listed space in Stroud is 0.5 mi away and costs £28 a month. Both are closer than the Parksy options in Stonehouse, so they are the practical paid choices for a short theatre visit when a central evening space is not suitable. Further listings include a driveway in Stroud, Gloucestershire, 1.1 mi away at £12 a day, plus a 24/7 parking lot in Stonehouse and parking at Cotswold & Vale NHS in Stonehouse, each 3.0 mi away. The Stonehouse lot is £2.50 a day and the Cotswold & Vale NHS space is £4.50 a day. ## Rail and Walking Access to Cotswold Playhouse Stroud Wallgate railway station is the nearest station, 0.5 mi from the venue and an 11 min walk. The address is 60 Parliament Street, Stroud, GL5 1DP, so visitors can use the station-to-venue walk as the final approach after arriving by train. The 11 min figure is the published walking time for Stroud Wallgate, and the 0.5 mi distance places the station within a manageable walk for a show.
