Bristol Airport off site parking???

Bettingmad

I will be flying from Bristol Airport next week and am seeking advice on decent off site parking. It is a problem getting hold of balanced reviews from other websites for the various parking sites, as most reviews are provided by people with only 1 previous post.


Specifically has anyone had any experience of using Oakwood Parking?

I've flown in and out of Bristol several times, and each time I've done my research into off site parking.

Each time, it's worked out cheaper to park in the car park opposite the terminal. There's always a discount code floating around somewhere

I agree with the above, always found it cheaper and less hassle to park within the Airport.

There is very little off site parking around Lulsgate because the council won't give planning permission - those sites offering it are either doing so via a loophole as B&B owners or don't have planning permission at all.

Go through quidco and look for the best deals, last time we had 15% off silver parking and that is about as good as it gets, around £44 for 2 weeks

We fly from Bristol a lot - and another vote here for the long term on site self parking. http://www.bristolairport.co.uk/parking/long-stay-parking.aspx

You can usually pick up around a 10% discount, and it's very convenient for the airport unless absolutely rammed when it can be a slightly longer walk (I think there might be a shuttle running through the car park too, but can't be certain as I've never had cause to use it).

On two occasions our family have used the 'Park and Ride' Silver Zone - the first time my husband and I saw another vehicle being driven back to the customer with TWO flat tyres and that was enough for us to decide to pay a tenner more and park our car ourselves in future. Our son used Silver Zone subsequently and came back to a flat battery, due to the parking attendants having left the door slightly ajar.

Since then, on site, park it yourself for us every time!!

ETA: 10% off code until end of this moth is: AUG14

this should make a week of parking come in at around £45 or so.

On airport Silver Parking is usually a bit cheaper, but I find the convenience of parking in Long Term opposite the terminal is worth the extra few quid - and if you can get some sort of discount code it'll probably make up the difference anyway.

Just to add that the 10% off code is always in the same format, ie, SEP14, OCT14, depending on which month you are booking.
