    Bristol Airport:
    http://www.airporttavern.co.uk/

    Free minibus from the parking just outside the airport to the terminal.
    Happy chappy
  • They have been around for ages. Recently moved to a new site south of the Airport. Good service, I have always found them reliable, and option for a car valet while you are away...

    Another one for Bristol airport. I've used these folks before:

    http://www.goblincombefarm.com/

    It's a family run farm that have been doing parking at Bristol for 25 years, a nice bunch of people based in a lane round the back of the airport, with a nice and easy little online booking facility on the website. They offer a meet-n-greet service, and undercover parking too if you have a swanky car!!

    If you're going away for the weekend you could be paying £30 or more for the "official" silver zone parking at the airport even with a discount (And last time I used this it took nearly an hour from parking up to getting into the airport terminal, despite them being next door!). By comparison I paid just £17 at Goblin Combe and it really was 10 minutes away.
  • Anyone know of outside parking near Exeter or Newquay airports, please?
  • Hello (first ever post!) heres my tip for parking at Bristol

    personally I hate the Silver Zone car park (miles away, takes ages, have to hand over keys) and much prefer on-site (they call it long stay) - can literally walk to terminal in 4/5 mins - but its a bit dearer

    So. . . join this travel rewards thing

    http://www.bristolairport.co.uk/travelrewards.aspx

    free (just id & password)

    every month they email you a code which gives you (about 10%?) a discount
    which you enter on the website when booking, obviously

    this makes the on-site parking about the same price as the dreaded Silver Zone (off-site) one

    cheers!
  • Like Tom Strickland weve used the Airport Tavern which is good. however the 1st place we discovered, is at Coombe Garage Tel:07900492559. if you have an early flight they have accomodation at a nearby Golf Club. They, like the airport tavern, drop off and pick up in a minibus, and we are usually on the road back home well before those using the onsite parking (and its £25 for a week!!)

    HAs ANYONE DISCOVERED SIMILAR FOR CARDIFF AIRPORT.

    Cymru am Byth!!!!
  • We always use a parking company based at The Waggon & Horses they are about two minutes away, there website is:-www.bristolholidayairpark.co.uk.
  • I logged on and typing from memory(ha ha!) put in .co.uk instead of dot com.
    It comes up with a load of more expensive parking options and has nothing to do with the genuine .com site.so just beware.

  • Cardiff Airport parking - The Highwayman Inn do parking (www.highwayman-parking.com) which is only 5 mins away from the airport. Don't know how much it is as I've never used it - I live nearby - but the food and beer is good.
