Carlisle Car Rental

With our diverse fleet, you can always count on finding something that works for you. When going on a trip, size becomes doubly vital because you have to think about all of the luggage that will accompany each passenger. If your intentions are to rent an SUV, you can opt for the large or small executive variants.

For a large family holidaying together, a people carrier rivals any other options available. These large cars have space in the boot and roof racks to accommodate significant volumes of luggage. The commercial van category is another one that caters to a specific clientele. For individuals whose transport needs are more about hauling cargo than carrying passengers, a commercial van is an ultimate solution. Between the Luton, the medium and extra-large vans, customers have more than sufficient options from which to select. Additionally, there is a car range that will satisfy the most standard transport demands. You can get a mini for a first-time driver. One the other hand, a compact is just the car for a small family. A coupe or convertible is perfect for diving around the Carlisle countryside as you take pleasure from the marvellous scenery.

The right choice of car will give you an opportunity to drive around the countryside and enjoy the distinct traits of this town. The Carlisle Cathedral is a good way to start your exploration as it offers an insight into the history it has witnessed over the 900 years since it was founded by King Henry I as the Carlisle Priory. Take a few shots of the East window as it is the most distinct aspect of the structure, and the gift shop allows you to carry a piece of this history wherever you go. A tour of the Carlisle Castle will offer an equally amazing experience along with Lanercost Priory. Standing next to Hadrian's Wall, this 13-Century church maintains most of its elegance and all of its historical significance. Another way to make your trip more educational is to learn about the lives of the soldiers who sacrificed all for their country at the Cumbria’s Museum of Military Life. Next, consider driving to the southern entrance of the town where the two striking oval towers of the Citadel lie.

If you fancy a visit outside of Carlisle, Glasgow, which is found 140 km to the south-east, is one of the neighboring towns to try out. The city has an incredible collection of Victorian architecture from the Glasgow City Chambers to the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum. Take the 90-km drive to Newcastle upon Tyne where you can fall into wonderment over the dramatic bridges on the Tyne.

The M6 motorway connects Carlisle to the rest of England while the M74/A74 links it to Scotland. There are trunk roads as well with a majority of them beginning or ending in Carlisle. The A595, for example, stretches from Carlisle to west Cumbria as the A7 takes you to Edinburgh and the A69 to Newcastle-upon-Tyne. With these transport links, you can navigate the town of Carlisle without too many complications. The town has various choices when it comes to parking, both private and public.
