Lancashire car rentals

There are lots of attractions, landmarks and venues to explore in Lancashire, which means that hiring a car is essential. By hiring a car, you have the complete freedom to experience and enjoy everything that the county has to offer without relying on public transport or taxis. Whether you want to enjoy some of the top and most intriguing local destinations or you want to explore some of the beautiful landscapes in North West England, then a car hire is one of the most ideal choices. Just some of the sights made possible with a hire vehicle include Forest of Bowland, Lancaster Castle, Pendle Hill, Samlesbury Hall, Ribble Steam Railway and Museum as well as much more.

Driving in Lancashire is fairly laid back and simple, and the straight and well-surfaced roads mean that driving in most kinds of vehicles is made easy. Drivers in Lancashire will always have a vehicle that is right-hand drive, meaning that you drive on the left-hand side of the road. Make sure to always give way to the right at roundabouts. Lancashire, as well as the rest of the UK, is usually no stranger to a bit of rain, and when this occurs, drivers should make sure to leave an appropriate amount of stopping distance between themselves and other vehicles. In these wet conditions, you should leave an approximately four-second gap between you and the car in front.

In Lancashire, and throughout the UK, you will find that hire car companies vary in their age requirements to successfully complete a car hire booking. The minimum age requirement for car hire in the UK is 21 years old; however, most companies also usually only provide car hire to those 23 and above. If you are under the age of 25 and you find an appropriate car hire company who accommodates younger drivers, then it’s common that you’ll face a charge, also known as a young driver’s fee. There are other restrictions that come subjective to your age, like whether or not you can choose van hire or luxury car hire, among other things.
