Parking on Marstons, CM22
Easy to find, straight off the motorway, the parking space was well lit, I arrived at 4am! Caught a taxi to the airport, £18 on the way there and caught the bus, £3 on the way back. Hassle free parking, excellent communication, would definitely use again.

Parking on Garnetts, CM22
Space is as described. Was very easy to find as Dawn’s instructions are very clear. I got the bus to the airport, which was £1.80 and took about 10 mins. The bus stop is about a two minute walk from the bungalow, so again very easy. On the way back, I couldn’t be bothered to wait for the bus so walked. It took about 25 mins and is basically one road once you get out of the airport, so again, was very straightforward. Highly recommend this space. Great communication from Dawn and very convenient for access to and from the airport.

Found the property very easily just off the motorway. The owners were very informative re everything about the costs and ease of transfers to and from the airport. I would not hesitate to use them again if the need arises.
