Overview
- The homeowner says she has a large private driveway on a street near a town centre where parking is scarce, and a nearby neighbour without parking keeps asking to use it.
- She worries that allowing occasional use could become routine and asked if it is reasonable to say no.
- Most online responses back her right to keep the space clear and warn that permission could quickly become assumed.
- Some propose a limited weekday arrangement for a fee with the terms documented and the ability to end access at any time.
- Coverage from the Daily Record and Bristol Live relays the Mumsnet discussion and advice, with no new agreement or escalation reported.
