Affordable car rental in Ambleside for a weekend trip?
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?

I'd recommend checking out Sixt. They have a location near the train station and their prices are competitive. I hired a Hyundai Tucson from them last summer and it was perfect for the narrow roads around the area.
I've found Enterprise to be the most reliable in the area. They're not always the cheapest, but their vehicles are newer and they don't hit you with unexpected charges at the end. Worth paying a bit extra for peace of mind.
I've used Europcar 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.
