Free parking at Stansted

[thehairysmite...]

I've found conflicting information on the Internet. Could anybody please tell me if they are aware of free parking at Stansted airport?

Thanks!

Yep, it's available at the short stay car park. Bikes tend to part at the back by the bins. On the way out the ticket machine will show a fee a few hundred pounds, but when they see you're a motorcycle they open the barrier.

Park here: https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.8861706,0.2595654,3a,75y,313.97h,72.95t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s3fKYNvr92B62mwu-ODScKQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656!6m1!1e1?hl=en

You can easily get in and out here:

The barrier isn't wide enough to stop bikes getting through easily.

This may be past the due date by now, but for future reference:

Stansted Airport doesn't allow motorbikes to park for free since late 2015!

They only do %50 on their standard rates when you pre-book.
To the day I haven't found any way to park around there for free or in a cost-effective manner.

I did park at the place recommended in an earlier post and it was fine. There were sayings saying 'no motorbikes' and people had even chained their bikes to them. There were probably 100 or so bikes, so I believe they're no really enforcing said rule yet.
