Please ensure you enter the Long Stay car park, NOT Scotpark Long Stay. If you enter the wrong car park, your pre-booking will not be honored and you may be charged again.
Transfers from airport
Transfers take three minutes and run every 10 to 12 minutes. They are included in the price and run 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
If you need a transfer to the terminal between 11pm and 5am, you should report to the customer services office in the car park or press the help button on the payment machine.
When you return from holiday, follow the signs for the transfer buses back to the car park. The bus picks up outside the front of the terminal from stand 20. If you need a transfer back to the car park between 10pm and 6am, you should call the car park, using the free phone in domestic arrivals.
Arrival procedure
The car park has automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) - so make sure you give us the correct car registration number when you book.
Once the machine at the barrier recognises your number plate, it will give you a ticket with your number plate and booking reference printed on it. Keep the ticket safe as you'll need it when you leave the car park.
If the barrier doesn't lift automatically, you should press the intercom button.
Park your car, making a note of which zone you're parked in and which is the nearest bus stop. Then just wait at the bus stop for the transfer bus.
Departure procedure
The transfer bus will take you back to the car park. You just need to drive to the exit barrier and put your ticket in the slot, and the barrier will let you out. If this doesn't work, just press the intercom button. Make sure you have a copy of your booking confirmation with you.
Security
Edinburgh Long Stay is frequently patrolled by security staff and protected by CCTV, barriers, a high fence and lighting.
Edinburgh Long Stay has also been awarded the Park Mark, a national security award accredited by the Association of Chief Police Officers.
Insurance
The car park indemnifies customers for damage resulting from any proven act or negligence on part of its servants or agents, otherwise parking is at owners own risk.
EXTRAS
Disabled facilities
There are disabled parking bays by the exit, next to the customer services office. The transfer buses are wheelchair-accessible.
Additional information
You need to give us your car registration number either when you book, or sometime before you go. It needs to be the right one - if you change the car you're going to be travelling in, you need to give us the new details. You must do this, or the car park will charge you £10 when you leave, because if they don't have the right registration number, it holds things up when you arrive and leave.
If you need any extra days' parking, the car park will charge you for the extra days at its normal rate. If you leave the car park early, and don't use all the days that you booked, unfortunately we can't give you a refund.
There is no longer a manned kiosk at this car park. If you have any problems at the entrance and exit barriers, please use the intercom system for help.
Please ensure you enter the Long Stay car park, NOT Scotpark Long Stay. If you enter the wrong car park, your pre-booking will not be honored and you may be charged again.

This was the second time I have used the NCP Long Stay Park at Edinburgh. On both occasions, I received clear instructions which allowed the process to be followed with no difficulty. This enabled our holiday to be hassle-free from beginning to end.
