Maximum days per booking
Set how long a guest can stay, so the guest space does not become somebody’s second parking spot.

Book visitor parking
before the guests arrive
Guest spaces are few and always taken when somebody actually needs one. Run without booking, the winner is whoever parked there longest. In Tiddel, residents book a space for their visit in advance, with a cap on how long.

Guest spaces that reach more visits
Add each guest space as its own resource. Residents then see how many spaces are free on a given day, and whoever booked knows which space is theirs. If any free space will do, add one resource with several places instead, and the calendar shows how many are left.
Set how long a booking can run — a day, a weekend, three days — and, from the Standard plan, how many bookings each member can make per week or month. The maximum stay is what separates guest parking from long-term storage.
Need to close spaces for snow clearing, resurfacing or a moving van? Block the time in advance. Tiddel books the time, not the barrier: you keep the signage and parking rules you already have.

FAQ: booking the visitor parking space
Quick answers
Can we limit how long a guest stays?
Yes. Set how long a booking can run — a day, a weekend — and, from the Standard plan, how many bookings each member can make per week or month. The maximum stay is what keeps guest parking for guests.
We have several guest spaces. How do we set them up?
One resource per space, named to match the signage, so members see which space they booked. If any free space will do, one resource with several places works too, and the calendar shows how many are left. Per-member limits (Standard plan and up) count per resource, so to cap bookings across all your spaces, use one resource with several places.
Does Tiddel check that only booked cars park there?
No. Tiddel books the time, not the barrier or the enforcement. Admins can always see who booked which space and when (anonymous walk-in bookings on a booking display aside), and members can too unless you hide booker names. That is the record you need; parking rules and checks work as before.
Does it suit garage or resident parking too?
For spaces booked by the day or weekend, yes. A fixed space a member rents all year is not a booking but a tenancy, and belongs in your agreements rather than a calendar.
