Top tips for renting a car in Taunton

  • Taunton’s history with military adventure is long indeed. From the days of the Anglo-Saxons and then the Normans on down through the Wars of the Roses, this town has made its mark on the history of Somerset and the entire country. Pack your travel bags and experience some adventures of your own with a hire car in Taunton. The convenience and flexibility they provide is priceless and can only enhance all the memories waiting to be made.
  • Get yourself off to a promising start by hiring a car in Taunton after you land at Exeter Airport, which is 31 miles away from the town square via the M5. The airport hosts a list of providers like Hertz, Budget and Avis, where you can find a vehicle before starting your trip. The Car Hire Centre at Exeter Airport is also conveniently located at the terminal and all you have to do is leave the Baggage Claim area and walk across the floor of the Arrivals Hall to find it.
  • With less than 80,000 residents, Taunton is not a large town, but it certainly experiences its version of rush hour madness during certain morning and evening periods. The town centre boasts an active network of secondary roads, many of which intersect at key points, and this increases the likelihood of vehicular traffic. The opportunities for congestion only increase when you add everyday pedestrians and cycle traffic to the mix.
  • The M5 is an obvious standout as it glides past the outskirts of town, carving its way through the county. The A38 and A358 run parallel to each other as they approach the town centre, then become part of a ganglion of primary roads that converge around the Firepool, Obridge and Rowbarton areas. For this reason, you should expect to encounter delays or even traffic jams around these northern districts between 07:00 and 08:30 on weekday mornings and from 18:00-20:30 on weekday evenings.
  • Book your rental car in Taunton at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Mini rental cars in Taunton are around 57% cheaper than other car types, on average

Cons:

Got an SUV instead of sedan. There are a lot of narrow roads in the U.K. And I was very uncomfortable driving something big on them. The day before I was to return the vehicle a stone hit the windshield and cracked it. They charged me for it. Had I been in the sedan that I reserved, the stone would have gone right over it. Doubt that I'll rent from Enterprise again!
