How the data is collected
We record the prices businesses publish on their own websites and booking pages, never "average cost" estimates from lead-generation sites. Each business counts once per figure, every figure shows how many businesses it comes from, and the full reports link every price to its source page. Promotions, memberships and fleet pricing are left out. More about the method.
