A lot of the hotels have a long stay car park, or if not the airport does and you can stay in a hotel right by the airport.

Colin, look for B n B's that offer that service. My grandparents use in gatwick for that reason, theyre old are cant be bothered.
They drive down at a time that suits them, stay over night, leave the car there for 2 weeks and the owners of the place they stay even run them to the airport

book a hotel for a night with thomas cook and they give you free parking for the duration of your holiday.

Bewleys at the airport is ace. Cheap for what it is (£50-60 a night, but the rooms are nice) and their own secured car park.

They'll also do the ride to the airport from the hotel, i'm sure. So, it'd be £50-60 all in.
