About Stansted Guest House hotel
This charming Victorian cottage in large mature gardens is a 3-minute drive or 15-minute walk from Stansted Airport. There are rooms with free transfers (16:00 - 23:00 & 06:00-10:00) and 2 days' free parking.
Located between the village of Takeley and Stansted Airport, this is the closest off-site accommodation to the airport. It is set in 3 acres of mature gardens and surrounded by countryside, making it ideal for an overnight stay.
