5/5 - Excellent
If you are in Stansted with a car and have a few hours to kill then I recommend the Freeport Retail Village in Braintree which is a 15min drive away. It is a very underrated outlet centre.

Busy but efficient
Perfect stay
Car parking much better than other London airports
The airport itself is fine. But the parking and taxi idiots all over the place make it stressful.
Not a lot to do
