Cophall Parking
At very short notice our Gatwick off airport car park was changed from Cophall to APH and we were assured that APH would have our booking details. They did not. Therefore the booking in process took around 15 minutes. Apart from this (which I don't blame APH for) our car park experience was very good and I'd happily recommend APH.
Mr Donnelly, 10 Nov, 2020 (4.5 out of 5)
Purple Parking
Very easy process, site well staffed at 3:00 am dropping off the car, shuttle bus straight to the airport. Arriving back at Gatwick a short walk to get the shuttle bus , arriving at the carpark my car was ready to collect and drive away. Perfect service altogether
Mr Loughlin, 21 Oct, 2020 (5 out of 5)
APH
Everything went very smoothly, no doubt helped by reduced passenger numbers due to covid. Parking was easy, transfer swift, and very helpful driver on our return to Gatwick.
Mr Stroud, 20 Oct, 2020 (5 out of 5)
Purple Parking Meet & Greet
As usual holiday extras have been great when having to change holidays and parking twice giving me vouchers to rebook in the future. Just used 2 vouchers for parking at Gatwick.

"Due to the nature of my job, I have to travel a lot and often have tight timescales. The best car park for me is the Short Stay because it's located so close to the terminals. I use the Premium Parking option which means I park on the same level as Departures, just a short walk straight into the terminal."
"It's undoubtedly a convenient way to park, however, there are pitfalls.""It's an expensive way to park and can get very busy, you might not find a space depending on the time you arrive. The spaces in the older multi-storeys are a very tight squeeze so getting your luggage out can be challenging."

If you have an early flight time or are due to land back late on your return, take a look at our Gatwick airport parking and hotel deals.
Booking an overnight stay at Gatwick doesn't have to be expensive, in fact, quite the opposite. When you compare the price of a weeks parking with our hotel and parking offers, you'll see that the price difference is minimal. When you wake up only 5 minutes from the airport and can swap the time you would have spent on a busy motorway for a full English breakfast, you will soon realise that the extra was worth every penny.
As an example: a week in the Gatwick Long Stay car park will cost around £56 but we have a choice of 10 Gatwick hotels with parking all under £70, parking included!
One of the best deals we have at the moment is for the Ibis hotel with parking just 5 minutes away at Purple Parking. They have an excellent bus schedule and transfers are included in the price. This package is just £65, so for only £9 more, you can choose the time you drive to the airport, sink into holiday mode a day early and wake up at Gatwick with a spring in your step.

Top Tip!
Check if transfer fees apply: When we combine a hotel with an independent parking provider, the transfers to and from the airport are always included in our price, but the packages with parking at the hotel sometimes require an additional payment for a transfer bus or taxi. We detail this under each hotel information section (having searched for your dates) so it is worth checking this when comparing prices and hotels.

Does Gatwick parking get cheaper?
It's no secret that turning up at a Gatwick car park without prior booking is a costly affair. Undoubtedly the best way to find cheap parking at Gatwick is to book early. Booking early not only ensures the availability will be better but it is also rewarded with extra savings. The earlier you book, the more money you are likely to save. We even made a graph to prove it!
Booking in advance gives you the chance of grabbing one of our special offer prices. These deals are non-amendable and non-refundable but if you're sure your travel arrangements won't change, they are a great way of saving you, even more, money.
Please note: These are accurate at the time of writing but are always subject to change according to availability on the dates you require and price fluctuations throughout the year. Please enter your dates into the fields at the top of this page for availability and prices for your travel dates.
Is cheap best?
The security of our customers' cars is the no.1 priority for Holiday Extras. There is no point in offering cheap prices if we aren't 100% sure we are providing high-quality and trustworthy services. That's why we make sure the car parks we provide not only deliver the best customer service but also the highest levels of security.
We don't doubt that you will find dozens of companies across the Internet offering cheap prices for Gatwick parking, all making promises of low rates and great services; unfortunately not all of them are legitimate. If you have any doubt that it isn't a reputable company, it isn't worth pursuing. The cheap prices do not extend to the repair of your car!
Booking with a company you trust is of utmost importance, you need to be sure you know your car is going to remain safe during your holiday.
"It's becoming all too common for us to hear horror stories of cars that have been left at what is believed to be the safe hands of an airport car park, only to return and find all isn't quite what it seemed."
"Cheap is only beneficial when you know quality isn't compromised.""When you book with us we guarantee you won't face that nightmare. All of our products are tried and tested to ensure we are 100% happy with the service they provide."
