I live in a flat so NO outdoor space whatsoever.
Heating is storage heaters which are not great and super expensive and my electric bills are HUGE.
Already own a good quality dehumidifier but without the heating on still takes a while to dry things (small room with door closed)
Have heard mixed reviews re heated airers and would still need dehumidifier I presume? What would the cost of that be?!
Would you just give up and buy a tumble dryer? I had one previously and it cost around £1.50 per cycle (I think) but I did end up shrinking a few things but I did put everything on extra dry!.
Think this may potentially still be the cheapest option though even though people seem to say tumble dryers are the devil! (Must admit I do also worry about the fire risk).
Have tackled my problem with overspending on food shopping - next is my extortionate electric bills!.
What would you suggest?!.

My mum has a meaco dehumidifier, she hangs clothes on a clothes horse and they're dry by the morning. The dehumidifier isn't cheap to buy but is cheap to run.

Possibly but it would have to be in either the bedroom or living room to be near to a window - are they quite large?.
