Best car hire options in Builth Wells for hiking trips?

David Williams•2 months ago•922 views•Mid Wales

I'm planning a hiking trip to Builth Wells next month and need to hire a car to access some of the trails. Does anyone have recommendations for reliable car hire companies in the area? Ideally looking for something affordable but reliable, and a car that can handle some rough tracks. Any tips on booking in advance vs. on arrival? Thanks!

If you're looking for something budget-friendly, try Wales Car Hire. 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'd recommend checking out Lake District Hire. They have a location near the train station and their prices are competitive. I hired a Ford Kuga from them last summer and it was perfect for the narrow roads around the area.

I've found Sixt 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.
