Overview
Enjoy Park and Ride Gatwick is a booking option using the Cophall Parking site near Gatwick Airport. You drive to Cophall on Effingham Road, leave your car and keys with the parking team and take the complimentary shuttle to Gatwick North or South Terminal.
That means you should not think of Enjoy Park and Ride and Cophall Parking as two completely different car parks. The underlying parking operation is the same, so the main reasons to choose one listing over the other are likely to be the price available for your dates, booking flexibility and any rate-specific conditions.
Why choose Enjoy Park and Ride?
- Serves both terminals: transfers are available to Gatwick North and South.
- Established parking site: your vehicle is stored at the long-running Cophall Parking facility.
- Staff park for you: leave your keys with the team rather than finding a bay yourself.
- On-demand transfers: shuttles operate according to demand rather than a fixed timetable.
- Another way to price-check Cophall: the Enjoy product can sometimes be sold at a different price or with different booking conditions from the standard Cophall product.
How does Enjoy Park and Ride compare with Cophall Parking?
Cophall Parking Gatwick and Enjoy Park and Ride use the same underlying Cophall parking operation. You arrive at the same site, leave your keys and use the same type of shuttle service to Gatwick.
Rather than choosing between them based on location or transfer time, compare the live price, cancellation terms and booking conditions. If Enjoy is cheaper for your dates with conditions you are happy with, there may be little reason to pay more for the standard Cophall listing.
How does Enjoy Park and Ride compare with APH Gatwick?
APH Gatwick is a genuinely different Park & Ride operation with its own parking site. Both services require you to leave your keys and both serve the North and South terminals, but APH operates a scheduled shuttle service while the Cophall/Enjoy transfers operate on demand.
Compare the price for your dates alongside the transfer arrangements and booking conditions. If the difference in price is small, your preferred shuttle setup may help decide between them.
How does Enjoy Park and Ride compare with Gatwick Official Long Stay?
Gatwick Official Long Stay is on airport property and allows you to park the car yourself and keep your keys. Enjoy Park and Ride uses an independent off-airport site where staff park the vehicle for you.
Official Long Stay is the better fit if keeping your keys and parking on airport property are priorities. Enjoy may appeal more if you are looking for a competitively priced Park & Ride option and are happy to leave the vehicle with the parking team.
