"Booked a Saloon Car from Stansted to Harwich International Port for the Stena Line overnight to Hook of Holland. Our easyJet flight landed 40 minutes late — the driver had already tracked it and was waiting at arrivals with a name board. Arrived at the port with 90 minutes to spare. Fixed fare of £85, exactly as quoted. Will use again without question."
"Travelled with five colleagues from Stansted to Harwich for a Stena Line crossing. Booked the 6-Seater MPV at £140 — far cheaper than six individual train tickets would have been. Driver knew exactly which entrance to use at Harwich International Port and dropped us right outside check-in. Spotless vehicle, plenty of luggage space, punctual. Highly recommended for groups."
"Used for the return leg — Harwich International Port to Stansted after arriving on the 07:00 Stena Line from Holland. Driver was already waiting in the car park when we disembarked. Comfortable Executive Car, smooth A120 run, no traffic issues. Dropped at Stansted departures in under 75 minutes. Exactly the stress-free start we needed after a long overnight crossing."
