Car Boot Sales in the United Kingdom

"Slightly more out of the way than most boot sales, however very cheaply priced and much larger. Finding good things is slightly difficult and tedious amidst lots of people selling new goods, but there is gold to be found. (I found this purple Vera Pelle bag for £5. Not in the best condition but still a decent find nonetheless!!) There are toilets on site and a burger place also selling drinks so amenities are sorted. Getting here by public transport is a bit of a pain in the butt, so here are some tips I gathered: • Chigwell station is the nearest tube/TfL stop. • You cannot get to Chigwell directly from Stratford, you have to get 2 central line trains. • You must catch the Woodford-Hainault (or reverse) shuttle from one of the two said stations, which stops at Chigwell. • Once you get to Chigwell station, you can walk the entire way. Some of the path closer to the bootsale is very leafy, so be careful on the road. Overall a good bootsale, worth exploring but too far out of my way for me to come back to regularly. Still recommend if you’re somewhat close by."

"It was very good, my only 2 issues, which is why I didnt rank it five stars, early birds are £7, which is quite hefty, if you are going for that option, I suggest that you book online instead, as you get a lil priority & another issue is only a small amount of sellers setup when the early birds are allowed in, and the other sellers gradually come to setup. I would prefer majority of sellers prepare prior to buyer. To gain a great experience March-September are the best periods!"

"The best around really, have to be willing to pay a little extra for early entry but usual for a car boot to get better stuff , bit of a gamble as it depends who’s selling on the day but always finding good treasures, sellers are doing cheap prices and all are lovely :) would get here as early as you can too, sometimes when it’s busy with sellers you are there for up to 2 hours it’s brilliant x food stalls are good too over there not too over priced x"
