Reviews

The way there was fine, but we had to wait for over 40mins for a shuttle bus to go back to the car park on return-not the every 10mins advertised. Just grateful it was that way round or I'd have been worried about missing my flight!

Very straightforward booking and when we returned, we were picked up and taken easily to the park where the car was.

Transfer was amazing both to and from airport and parking there was very easy. The only quarm I had was that although I had prebooked it and had a reference number I didn't have anywhere to write it when arriving or leaving so I wasn't sure if I had been to the correct car park.it would have been great if when arriving it says prebooked on the printed ticket or something like that. Other than that. Cracking stuff. 2nd time I have used the car park and won't hesitate to do so again.

Long stay parking easily found following directions given. Easy access Long stay bus was a bit overdue and very crowded, even though 5am! On return long stay bus arrived at Terminal promptly and took us to section where our car was parked. Exit from Car park easy ,following insertion of card. Excellent and good value.

The numberplate was not recognised at the barrier and I had to phone the car park. However, they recognised the reference number that I quoted on exit.

Disappointed had booked and paid in advance but when ticket was inserted it tried to charge us £144.00. Good job some-one was on duty to sort this out. Not good though

I've used the Stansted long stay many times and it is never entirely convenient. The Car number recognition never gets my car number right and I always have a problem getting out through the gates. On my last visit they couldn't find my booking details or booking reference. I had all my booking details printed out and they eventually let me go but, while a 10-15 minute delay isn't exactly life and death it's a pain in the backside when you want to get going and hit the road for home. The best thing about it is its convenient location and pickup and dropoff service. Nevertheless, I will, no doubt, use it again.

Arrival and transfers all smooth. On return our ticket was not recognised as prepay and said we owed £144! The man on the intercom said initially that our booking number was not recognised or even one of theirs but let us out eventually.

Normally no problems but this time there was a problem at the barrier on our return, it asked for payment so we had to answer questions before we were finally let out.

Booked the Long Stay Parking at Stansted. It took over 20 minutes for the shuttle bus to arrive to take us back to the carpark. Not the 10-15 minutes advertised. Would make me think twice, as we saw 3 x midstay buses turn up in that time. Bus was clean, tidy, good condition, driver pleasant.

We were about 15 metres from the bus when it drove off but we were picked up shortly after by jet parks which was v kind of their driver. Otherwise the service would have been 5 star.

Would definately use Book FHR again, no problems at all, and by far the most competitively priced parking for Stanstead we found.

One thing, your website wasn't actually explicit in saying that you are so easy to find, just follow the signs for Stanstead, and then follow the signs for the Long Stay Car Park. Thanks, Richard

I often have problems with the automatic recognition at this car park but not this time. It was not easy to see the pre-booked lane at the exit until I was right on top of it but it was foggy
