Hi All

Just looking at the long stay parking. It seems that car park 1 is twice the price of car park 7. Has anyone used either sufficiently to confirm whether the convenience of 1 is worth the additional cost?

I prefer using car parks 2 and 3 for convenience, even over car park 1. Got a significant discount booking in advance using a third party website - I used Holiday Extras but that was over a year ago and these things change so don't rely on that. I was only away for a long weekend so if you're going for a week or more, it might be prohibitively expensive to stay there compared to long stay parking.

ETA: I've just found the parking map on the BHX website and realised where CP7 is. Don't bother with that - it's a long way from the terminal and impossible to get to without a shuttle bus or taxi. CP5 is walkable if you are so inclined. Not sure why they don't use the car park numbers on the numbered markers on this map!

So, 2/3 are the way to go then. I might be arriving late at night and the last thing I will want is a hike / to wait for the bus.
