    I was worried about airport parking when booking my holiday, I didn’t want to pay a fortune but I also didn’t want to get conned, especially with meet and greet parking. Then luckily for me I found Car Storage Limited and received exactly what I could have wanted, a safe and reliable parking service at a good price! I highly recommend that if you too have any parking worries you go with Car Storage Limited. Best holiday ever!

    Thanks for that obvious plug of your own company mrmann.
  • The only thing I can say about Car Storage Limited is just that they are an all around great company. I had the wonderful experience of their great service in all areas and you can consider me to be one very happy customer. Simply fantastic. :money:
  • just booked with them, £27 for 5 days instead of £60 in the long term parking!

    I've just returned from a short trip to Barcelona, flying from Stansted and after a lot of research I found this company: http://www.kingsarmshotelstansted.co.uk/
    They offer airport parking for £5 a day and you get free transfers to and from Stansted! Bargain! Easy to find (with a tomtom anyway!) and they were there to meet us when we arrived. We had our own private transfer, no waiting around in the cold for a bus to fill up, and it was a 5 min drive to the airport!
    We had to leave our car keys and they moved our car into the secure gated part of their hotel car park, but everything was fine when we arrived back.
    We called them once we'd been through security and then met them in the car park, only had to wait 2 mins.
    Everything went smoothly, i'd highly recommend them!
    We paid in cash on arrival - £20 for 4 days, I couldn't find anything else to match that price so close to the airport.
    Best to phone them as one of the email addresses on their site doesn't work.

    I have just come back from Stansted. I always use Meteor meet and greet (google it), £39 for 5 days, just pull up outside the terminal, they take the car away and bring it back when you return. No buses or transfers, its great. I have used them many time at Birmingham as well. Once you have used them you wont want to do anything else.

    I know i have recommended car storage limited before but really they are just the best I've used! i have traveled a lot in my time, be it for business or pleasure, and they are by far the best service i have used. i promise you will not be disappointed. :j

    I've just booked with them too, 10 nights for £52 instead of nearly £100. Thanks so much to the people who recommended this!

    STANSTED PARKING (DE SALIS HOTEL): stanstedparking.org

    DO NOT USE IT AS PARKING FOR YOUR CAR.

    We used it, they destroyed the car when moving it from the main parking space to another one, melting the engine and saying they only cover accidents (they did not stop and did not see any oil leak or led, they were stopped by police with the car rattling and smoking!). The car is now scrap metal, and they were trying to hide things, and when brought the car back to parking space they even left it open.

    They offered us a room for the night, stinky and very dirty, absolutely avoid it.

    We'll have a lawyer to get our money back plus all extra expenses we'll have, but it was really incredibly dense and mean managing of situation by their management.

    WE BROUGHT OUR CAR WORKING, WE CAME BACK AND IT'S NOW TO BE TRASHED.
  • I would advise people to avoid stanstedmeetandgreetparking co uk I was 1 hour delayed getting to them. Phoned them well in advance to say i would be delayed, they were very unhelpful and i was charged for the full weeks parking even though they never actually had the car or had to pick me up or deliver. expected to be charged something but not ALL the amount. Sadly its in their T&Cs and i imagine they make a fair amount of money this way.

    Has anyone tried parking at Stansted Mountfitchett and getting the train recently. Am thinking of doing this as for a few days parking is £27 at the cheapest place
