St Albans Car Rental

For any visit to St Albans, car rental is a convenient option to consider for the duration of your stay. Whether you are looking for a luxury vehicle, such as our Mercedes E250 convertible or Porsche Cayman, or simply want something economical to get you around town or conduct the school run, we have a vehicle to suit. The Toyota Aygo is a popular choice of car for our clients who want something small, and the Vauxhall Corsa has its own following too. For something with a little more room and a larger engine, why not book a Toyota Insignia or Skoda Octavia? These cars manoeuvre well in built-up areas and can more than hold their own on the motorway. We have SUVs and people carriers that can comfortably carry five people with luggage, and there is even a seven-seater option for larger groups. If you usually drive a modern classic to showcase your business, or simply because you love driving, Enterprise has Mercedes-Benz C-Class and E-Class sedans at your disposal.

For visitors who want to explore this part of the country, a car rental gives you the flexibility and freedom to discover the area. There is lots to see, including a magnificent cathedral that is referred to locally as The Abbey. The de Havilland Aircraft Museum is the oldest aviation museum in Britain and visitors can see some of the iconic planes developed by the company, such as the Comet, Sea Hornet and Vampire FB6. However, note that the museum is closed during the winter months. Redbournbury Watermill, a water-driven flour mill on the River Ver, is still in operation producing a variety of breads and organic flours. If you want to keep young children amused, Willows Activity Farm is a great place to take them to pet and feed the animals. There is also an adventure playground and bouncing haystack on site too.

A car rental from St Albans means that you are only 19 miles from London. This makes it a great place to stay if you want to do some sightseeing; book a West End show, visit The Tower, check out St Paul’s Cathedral or take the children to London Zoo. Or perhaps you fancy a concert at the O2, or an event at one of the world-class sporting venues the city is home to? St Albans also lies close to a number of theme parks including Legoland Windsor, Thorpe Park and Chessington World of Adventure. By renting a car from St Albans, the surrounding area will be completely opened up to you, enabling you to get to wherever you want to go quickly without having to worry about public transport.

Like most places today, parking in St Albans is operated by both the local council and private parking companies. The council has also contracted NCP to run some of the car parks on their behalf. A high percentage of car parks in the city have public toilets available, and the majority allow 24-hour parking. Council parking charges are fairly typical starting at 60p for the first 30 minutes, but private firms may apply variable charges. For example, the NCP at Adelaide Street it is £10.60 to leave a car between 6 and 24 hours. Parking expenses should, therefore, be factored into the overall cost of your trip. There are four motorways within a three-mile radius of the city center: the M25 orbital road, the Mi, A1(M) and the M10. Routes into north London get particularly busy, especially during rush hour when high levels of congestion can build up very quickly in the city center.
