AS Parking Perran Sands Perranporth

Have just been issued a PCN by a company called A S Parking in a car park at Perran Sands, when we parked I noticed a pay and display sign but on investigation found no ticket machine or tariff board, so assumed as with many of the coastal car parks down here they either reduce the parking fee or cover up or remove the ticket machines.
On returning to the car found the ticket and only then did I have a good read of the notice board and found on a piece of Dymo tape labelling no bigger than 1cm high the instruction to purchase a ticket from reception or if reception is closed and no ticket purchased I face a fine of £100, no indication of which reception or where it was.
How do I stand?

    If you live locally it will be beneficial to get photographs of the dymotape stick-on and the other signage there.
    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.
