Hi Steven, I normally walk down there as i dont drive but i think the best place to park is at the end of Phillips Park Road west as it is a dead end and there are normally a few cars parked there. If you take a left at the Macdonalds in Whitefield and take another left at (i think) the 1st set of Junction traffic lights you come too this should take you onto Phillips Park Road west. If you have an A-Z of manchester is east to find in there. Hope this is of some help? Someone else may be able to give better directions??
