IMHO the Rail to Terminal interchange at Gatwick is about as good as
it gets. There is a frequent rail service to many destinations. The
platform overbridge leads directly into the terminal building.

It's not far from the south terminal, if anything closer in minutes than
Stansted (where the station is actually under the departure concourse,
but some walking is required). But it's a shuttle ride to the north
terminal (can easily take 10 minutes including waiting time). I reckon
Birmingham airport is closer to its station than Gatwick North is.
