Has anyone stayed overnight at the Tesco Extra in Reading.

I see it is controlled by " Your Parking Space " and have an app where you book your parking.
I have entered a test parking request on their site for a couple of days and came up with a quote for £11
Obviously they do allow multi day and night parking but cannot find anything about staying over in a motorhome
Anyone had any experience here
Thanks

Tesco carpark brings back memories,
A good few years ago I was at a retirement party and part of the entertainment was a Mr and Mrs competition we were one of the youngest couples there and obviously we were chosen to have a go.
Usual questions favourite food , places to visit dress size then the clanger........... where was the most unusual place you have had sex? I thought for a wee while to what she would answer if at all.
Next out was the then girlfriend to answer the questions which we were doing very well at (I still think she lied about the dress size but never mind) now for the final question " where was the most unusual place you have had sex? " she went red and into fits of laughter blurting out " I'm not answering that !" The host urged her on come on Sam has answered you may even win. Giving me a stoney look she thought hard and eventually blurted out "WELL HE ONCE STUCK IT UP MY BUM !" 😂😂😂
 
Maybe not the answer you were looking for but it wasn't mine either .😉

Why not, its walking distance into Reading, supplies and toilets nearby and its better than parking overnight in a layby beside the road etc which are the other wild camping spots in the area
 
Forget this idea anyway, it seems the parking bays are to small for a motorhome.
Wil have to keep looking for somewhere else secure on a bus route, especially as the park & ride has height barriers as usual

Come off of junction 12 head to sainsburys don’t go into sainsburys drive down Pincetts Lane take your first right and you can park for free. Not the best but toilets at McDonald’s and breakfast at sainsburys bus into Reading. I used to live in Reading it’s sparse on parking for MH this is ok you find lorries up there and the police on there coffee break ;)

Right in the middle of town.

We stayed a couple of nights in Stratford Tesco.

Great wine list

Largest dessert menu I've ever seen.

24 hour Toilets.

Free. (But we did put some folding in their charity box)

I've added it to the POIs 😀
 
There are plenty of French supermarkets that permit overnight motorhome parking with a high proportion having service areas. We get our morning shop when we stop so good custom for those that are welcoming.

Totally different attitude to the U.K.
