Cheapest nearby hotel that is walkable (20mins) to Gatwick South Terminal - recommended for those on a tight budget. There is a footpath from South Terminal all the way to this hotel but it takes some navigating around car parks and train lines :)

Such a wonderful experience at the lodge. Warm welcome at check in. Very accommodating giving us our choice of rooms to a quiet local facing the rear garden. So quiet and peaceful. Lovely town Horley, supper at the Forrester pub, outstanding English fare and atmosphere. 5 min walk from the Horley train station then 3 min to LGW for our flight.
