Does anyone have any experience of travelling from Stansted Airport? We're due to fly from there mid-morning in a few weeks time. We're in Manchester so I'm thinking we should drive down the day before the flight and stay in a Stansted Airport-type hotel.
We haven't been abroad since having ds's, so this all feels a bit new - years ago we'd just stick some clothes in a rucksack and get the tube to the airport (sigh). So my dilemma is what to do with the car...
Do we pay to stay the night before in an airport hotel which lets us leave the car there for a week, or I've googled and discovered something called valet parking, where we'd stay somewhere, drive to the airport and give our keys (seriously? gulp) to someone who would then bring the car back a week later...
So, any recommendations of OK hotels/car park ideas? Budget is as usual the-cheaper-the-better...
Thank you
