I've recently had a very bad experience with an unscrupulous car park operator and after reading in here the reviews about this place's rogue operations I've decided not to visit. I'll follow the advice and go to friendlier and prettier places. Thank you all for your warnings

Carpark is fine however £3 for 3 hours. Then on top its £2.50 per person for a 10 minute walk to the waterfall, fenced off around a fairly small area then 10 minute walk back to carpark up steep slippery steps. Don't do it. Beautiful waterfall (but can be seen for free from different angles at different entrances)

It took us a moment to find the actual place to park. We almost ended up in a quarry due to the closed signs on the actual location.The carpark is open early for hikers. the waterfall opens at 10 a.m. tickets can be purchased in the hotel beside the carpark. Public toilets are also accessible.This has to be the best waterfall I have seen so far in England. The walk leading up to it is also breathtaking.Definitely recommend to stay atleast 2 hours for this place

The waterfall its self is a wonder to watch. Being charged 2 pound per person plus 3 pound for 3 hours parking was not. Living in Scotland we are treated to a plethora of waterfalls. Which I have yet to be charged to see. I understand that it has a nice path to walk down and some very slippy steep steps to walk back, however the fact that there is a hotel/pub/restaurant and a expensive food concession hut, should more than pay for its up keep. I have seen remarks from a few websites that state that parking covers the cost of waterfall, from a few years ago, which suggest the fee is a new cost. Not something I would pay for it it was not a group activity. Also 15 for 5 drinks of hot colored sweet water which took ages to make was really a rip off. Not a place I would visit again. But if your OK with the charges the waterfall was wonderful, but not something that cannot be seen in scotland for free.

Car park appears to be owned by hotel which owns high force waterfall..however operated by someone else.Pay machine confusing and very slow and no card reception.OK picnic tables at back of car park and view one way.This car park is nearest to high force and gentle20min stroll to fall..and uphill part of way on return

Paid, parked & left.Then the fun started ! £140 fine for apparently putting our reg in wrongly.Civil Enforcement Ltd who operate the car park are criminals & will scam anyone they can. This time it was us.The ‘ombudsman’ POPLA who appear to be part of the company that operate the car park accepted we’d paid (as it showed on bank statement) but judged we’d contravened the terms & conditions of Civil Enforcement Ltd, by inputting our reg wrongly (allegedly).Run out of options & now going to pay £140 for doing nothing wrong !C11NTS !!!!

£3 for three hours and still have to pay for the falls. It's expensive and be vary wary of the camera system! We paid and still got a £100 fine for not putting our reg in quick enough. Going to take this to court because we did get a proper ticket on a busy day. Low force falls parking is free but no toilet facilities. Will be going there next time
