Not that easy to find and it's further from the terminal than it looks on the map. But once we found it, the drop off and pick up were quick, efficient and easy.

When arriving at Purple parking i was told that the booking system had me down for a week later. Therefore i was required to make a new booking - i made a new booking with FHR but it didnt confirm the booking to purple parking quickly enough - i then had to make a direct booking with purple parking so i could catch my flight! in total i have paid for the parking 3 times!

The customer service was great! The car park is a bit isolated and hard to find, but the buses run promptly.

Adds about 15 mins to your trip to the airport but really efficient. You just roll up in your car, book in, get on the bus to the airport. Buses run every 15 mins. Really efficient on return, your keys and car are ready immediately
Margaret Gunn
Easy to leave car and check in. Bus driver was lovely, very happy and gave out sweets. What a suprise !! Wasn't expecting such a warm welcome. Staff in office a bit surley but hey ho. Car intact when we arrived home and easy to find. Would definitely use again.
Jon Thomerson
Good service at a reasonable price provided by Purple Parking. Staff were pleasant and shuttle buses to the Terminals from their compound were frequent.

This was the first time we had used Purple Parking. It was very straight forward to park the car with a smooth transition to the airport. The same applied on the return journey. However we found the actual booking web site very confusing . lots of promises of a 15% discount which we were not sure whether we received it or not. That was very disappointing and very off putting. You should put the price for the journey up front so that the customer knows how much it is going to cost.

Really good and helpful experience at reception and our car was ready on our return. Only one small gripe, when we were picked up from Gatwick the bus driver was very miserable. Fair enough if he didn't want to smile or say hello but he pulled away before a couple of us had put our cases on the racks and being 20kg it was dangerous trying to get them on. The lower racks were full so we were in the process of lifting them when he was driving away. This was on the 12th of April about 6.45 am.
Carl Humphries
Easy to park up and receive instructions. Efficient and friendly. Easy return journey to Gatwick and back. A bit of a walk to the terminal from drop off, but not too bad.
