Affordable car rental in Ashbourne for a weekend trip?

James Roberts•2 months ago•611 views•Peak District

Has anyone hired a car from Ashbourne 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 National. They have a location near the train station and their prices are competitive. I hired a Renault Clio from them last summer and it was perfect for the narrow roads around the area.

I've found Avis 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.

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