No way is that fitting in our car. We've got a trailer - can you even take a trailer in the car park (or do you have to pay for 2 spaces or something?)

One way car hire is working out £300 each way !

Other option is taxi - but to south wales its £600 return (which might be best option)

Where in South Wales are you?

I am using a company that is charging me £400 return (5 people and 5 large cases)

Dropping off at Gatwick and picking up from Heathrow. I can send you the details if you like, just let me know.

Other option for you, which we have done several times, is National express to the airport with an overnight stay at the airport hotel and then pick up in a taxi on the way home.

We are a family of 5 and get everything into 2 large cases and pack 2 large empty holdalls to come back. We have a roof box that we take to store the extra luggage on way home. Is this an option for you ?
