When to book a rental car in England

Location information for England

Take a trip to England and visit some of the famous sites and attractions that make this small European destination so popular. The picturesque coastal walks, historical streets lined with traditional pubs and cities filled with shopping centres are just a few of the things to enjoy. The simplest way to get around is by cheap car hire in England as it allows visitors to tour at their own pace.

Most of England's visitors will arrive at one of the four big airports located in London, and in a hire car the country is your oyster. See the sights in London including Buckingham Palace, Oxford Street and the London Eye before driving to the south coast by rental car to explore the pretty coastal towns and villages.

Cornwall is a popular destination for the English as well as foreigners thanks to its breathtaking countryside, endless beaches and traditional English fish and chip shops. Further east is the county of Somerset, well known for its cider making abilities, and next door is Dorset, home to an interesting place called Poole that is known for its beaches and natural harbour area.

The White Cliffs of Dover are remarkable and well worth making the trip to see, and in Sussex visitors can see the place where William the Conquer was victorious in the famous Battle of Hastings.

After you have discovered the south coast towns of Portsmouth, Southampton and Brighton, take your cheap hire car in England further north and stop off at Sheffield and explore the countryside outside of the city before driving on to Liverpool and Manchester, both of which have good shopping and famous football teams.

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is HireCars.co.uk the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).

When will I get a confirmation of my booking?

Most reservations will receive confirmation within minutes after payment takes place. We recommend contacting our Booking Department for last minute reservations (pick-up within 48 hours).
