French speakers? Translation needed

I need to produce a sign for the square where mt shop is cos the big group of French students are driving us mad. So I want the following in French:

Private Square - No large groups

Closest I can get is:

Place privee (with an accent) - pas de grandes groupes

But doesn't look quite right - and don't trust Babelfish.....

We've been to the Agincourt visitors centre. Believe me they haven't forgot... at all....
indeed after emerging from the centre, my partner said (probably a bit too loudly) "they're still a little sore about this aren't they!"
Very nice cafe just doen the road though and just about on route to Le Mans!!!

Zut ! alors mes braves. Où est l’hospitalité anglaise ? A mon avis, généralement, les Français ce ne sont pas mal. Je les ai trouvés gentils et chaleureux.

Not sure if it's parking that's bothering you or people sitting around but you could try

Stationnement privee (parking) or
Terrain prive (general space). Groupes interdits.
