    Thank you everyone for your advice and recommendations.
    Oakwood, St.Katherines Farm etc will save a good few bucks, and if I was a frequent flyer I'd be looking at one of these. But it is a very special holiday for us and the first for years, so the ease and convenience (for about fifty quid more) of the multistorey option is going to be my choice.
    As an aside, having not travelled for 5 years, and the changes that have come in since due to the B word, how many hours before departure would you recommend arriving at the airport? Thank you in advance for any advice.

    it depends on your flight time Bristol can be very busy before 8am. It then quietens out until lunchtime in my experience, the problem has been with security and the bottle necks it caused but seems to have improved some what. Fast Track Security is available for a charge.

    This guy advertises on one of my local f/b pages - I've never used him so I am merely giving a heads up.

    £65 for a weeks parking on his driveway, and he'll drop you off at the airport which is a 10 minute walk away.

    Thanks for the heads up. But for 40 quid more I'll use the insured official carpark 5 minutes walk away.
    If I used the airport on a regular basis like my brother in law who has a pad on Corfu does, I'd definitely be looking into an arrangement like this though.

    It's 12:15, after some googling I'm thinking a 9am arrival should be okay?

    That will be ample time. The process of checking in, security etc is very efficient given my personal experience 10 days ago.
