travel to stansted

Does anyone know the best way to get to stansted airport? Looking at trains from HE, we're going to have to change at both broxbourne and bishops stortford, turning it into a marathon journey with a young baby! Is there a bus direct from Hertford? Or does anyone know of anywhere to park free in bishops stortford, where we can then get a taxi from? Or any cheap taxi firms direct from Hertford? Many thanks.[:p]

How long are you going away for? It might be cheaper to drive and park at the airport.

about 10 days. will cost about £70 to park at airport. that's one option, but thought i'd look into some slightly cheaper options too.

Long term parking is £10 per day, mid term is £15 per day and short term.... horrendously expensive for 10 days!

tell me about it.. it's costing more than our flights! Thanks everyone.. was v. interested in the bus but times are completely wrong and we can't be hanging around for ages with a little 'un. will probably phone the taxi man - will be cheaper than parking. Thanks for all your help. x

This may be a little late in posting, there is a regular bus service to the airport from Harlow, but not a regular service from Hertford to Harlow, hope it may help.

Yes there is, the 724 is hourly Mon to Sat and roughly 2 hourly on a Sunday Hertford to Harlow. But is rather prone to delays caused by its coming all the way from Heathrow

thanks everyone. have booked a taxi in the end - £35 each way. not the cheapest way, but certainly the easiest!
