Parksy Spaces Near the Station and Across Mole Valley
The closest priced Parksy option is a driveway space on Ashcombe Road, 0.3 miles away, costing £3.75 an hour. It suits a short visit when an hourly rate is more useful than a full-day ticket. A priced parking lot in Dorking is 0.7 miles away and costs £3.50 a day, making it a practical choice for a full working day.
Further options include a secure parking lot in Dorking, RH5 6BT, 1.0 mile away at £5 a day, and a space at Dorking Hospital, RH4, 1.1 miles away at £3.90 a day. Drivers travelling farther can use a daily space at Epsom Health Clinic, 3.3 miles away for £2.50 a day, or a secure, lighted lot in Leatherhead, 3.7 miles away for £0.60 an hour. These longer-distance spaces are better suited to drivers already heading beyond central Dorking.

Commuters have several official station payment patterns to compare. APCOA lists a £35.60 weekly ticket for the station car park, alongside the weekday daily rate and evening rate (apcoa.co.uk). A weekly ticket can be useful where a driver parks on several weekdays and wants one station-based payment rather than separate daily sessions.

Street Parking Controls Around Station Approach and Dorking
Station Approach is the station address in Mole Valley, so drivers leaving a vehicle on nearby streets need to distinguish signed street bays from the station car park. The council’s published Dorking tariff includes £0.75 for 1 hour, £1.50 for 1.5 hours, £2 for 2 hours and £2.70 for 3 hours (molevalley.gov.uk).
Those council charges apply to council car parks rather than creating a general permission to park on Station Approach. For station users, the APCOA site provides a defined alternative to relying on a street space whose permitted stay may not match a working day.

Dorking Deepdene railway station is the nearest alternative, 255 yards from the station and a 3-minute walk.
The wider rail interchange is concentrated around Dorking’s stations, while the main station itself provides drop-off and pick-up points listed by National Rail (nationalrail.co.uk).
