Lancaster car hire

It's worth investing in car hire; Lancaster is a wonderful starting point for holidays in Lancashire and its neighbouring counties...

Morecambe is less than a 10-minute drive from central Lancaster and offers a very different holiday proposition. Here the excitement swirls around a seaside resort that stretches along the promenade.

Carnforth is best known for its iconic railway station, where romantic movie 'Brief Encounter' was filmed. The station is now a heritage centre, while the tea rooms have been designed to remind visitors of those scenes when the lovers meet and, ultimately, say goodbye.  

On the doorstep of the city is the Lune Valley, where pretty pastoral vistas hang like masterpieces on the horizon - you won't be surprised to learn that it has inspired many creative minds over the centuries. Make for traditional pubs and picture-postcard villages, or enjoy the serenity of the outdoors. 

Lancashire's iconic seaside resort is Blackpool, reached in 45 minutes by road from Lancaster. It's extremely popular with British families thanks to a bevy of fantastic attractions and wide, sandy beaches. 

Venturing away from the county, the Lake District lies temptingly close by; a drive of less than 45 minutes will deliver you into the woodlands, hills, villages and waters of this most beautiful of English regions. 

Alternatively, head east and journey into Yorkshire - you could be in the Yorkshire Dales National Park in around half an hour of setting out from Lancaster in your hire car. 

There are so many appealing destinations within minutes of Lancaster, with limited public transport options in some areas, so car rental here is invaluable if you hope to make the most of your time in this captivating corner of the UK.
