Best car hire options in Penrith for hiking trips?

David Williams2 months ago615 viewsLake District

I'm planning a hiking trip to Penrith 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!

I'd recommend checking out National. They have a location near the train station and their prices are competitive. I hired a Nissan Qashqai from them last summer and it was perfect for the narrow roads around the area.

If you're looking for something budget-friendly, try Highland Motors. 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 Wales Car Hire 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.
