    Hi, Angstdata,

    One time we flew from Gatwick, we stayed in a hotel overnight and got 14 night's free parking at a secure carpark (about 20 minutes away from the airport), including a bus to the terminal. The cost was slightly cheaper than 14 days parking at the airport and meant that we could travel down the night before rather than rushing for a morning flight. Afraid I can't remember the details of where it was - but I just googled gatwick hotel parking and a few places came up.

    Hi,

    We stayed at the Russell Lodge for 1 night before our flight and got 14 days free parking. They are about 15 mins from the airport but have a shuttle bus that goes regularly. The hotel and food was "ok", it was only for 1 night and well worth it to save the parking charges!

    Travelodge at Gatwick also have buses that go to the airport entrances, not sure about parking here though as we flew down from Inverness.
