Affordable car rental in Ambleside for a weekend trip?

Emma Thompson•2 months ago•679 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?

I've used Budget 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.

We had a good experience with Lake District Hire last year. They offer free delivery to your accommodation which was really convenient. Their staff were helpful and the booking process was straightforward.
