Car hire Peterborough

Peterborough may not be a popular tourist destination for contemporary travellers but it holds a certain charm that attracts its fair share of visitors every year. The town is known for its beautiful surrounding countryside, natural reserves and historic sites. The town centre is small enough to be easily explored on foot but you may want to arrange for cheap car hire in Peterborough so you can also organize day trips outside town.

While you're in the town centre, set aside your cheap car hire in Peterborough for later use because you will spend most of your time walking. The Ghost Walk, organized by the Peterborough Museum, is the town's most popular attraction. The walk takes visitors through various old buildings in the town that are steeped in history and are also known to be haunted. You get spooked while at the same time you get to learn about the town's interesting past. Alternatively, you can also view the ancient exhibits inside the museum.

After that, visit the Art Gallery. The gallery features an impressive collection of masterpieces created by celebrated local artists such as Turner. The town's imposing landmark, the Norman Peterborough Cathedral, is also worth a visit. The Cathedral was built in the 12th century and is one of the most important buildings in the country.

Once you've had your fill of the town, go out and take your cheap car hire in Peterborough for a drive to the countryside. You may also want to visit sites such as Flag Fen, one of the most important archaeological sites in Britain.
