Before my recent holiday to Majorca we wondered on the best way to get to Gatwick from Southampton. The cheapest quote we could get for a return taxi was around £90.
Due to the times of our flights it was difficult to arrange a lift with either family or friends and after checking various other option including trains and national express we found a website for off-airport parking at APH parking, Copthorne.
We got an online quote which was £37.10 plus VAT for 8 days parking. You receive an email to act as you receipt for the parking.
We left for the airport at a time that suited us, we stopped for something to eat on the way up and had took a leisurely drive there which is something that we would not have been able to do had we taken one of the other options.
On arrival at the car park (which was very easy to find) we had to leave our car at the reception and then given a card with instructions on what to do on our return. You then take all your luggahge from the car and leave the keys at reception.
They then arrange for the car to be parked and you are directed to the coaches which take you to the airport. The drivers are very helpful with your luggage and any information which you require. The coaches run every 10 minutes, 24 hours a day and the journey to the airport was between 5-10 minutes.
Upon our return to Gatwick before you go though Customs you are asked to call a freephone number on the instruction card given to you before you departed. This then allows them the time to ensure that you car is ready for you when you arrive.
Again, the return coaches are every 10 minutes. When we arrived our car was ready and we were helped with our luggage.
The car park is very secure with cameras at every angle and they are locked in with only authorised access.
I found this to be an excellent way to get to the airport and would recommend this.
