Affordable car rental in Ambleside for a weekend trip?

Tom Wilson•2 months ago•529 views•Lake District

Has anyone hired a car from Ambleside recently? I'll be arriving by train and need to rent a car for about a week to explore the surrounding areas. Looking for recommendations on which companies have offices near the station, typical costs, and any tips for getting the best deal. Also, are there any particular models you'd recommend for the local roads?

If you're looking for something budget-friendly, try Hertz. They're a local firm with good rates. The cars aren't the newest but they're reliable and perfect for exploring the area.

I've used Peak Rentals in {location} several times and they've been great. Their rates are reasonable and the vehicles are well-maintained. They also have a good range of options from small cars to larger SUVs.
