Car hire in Brighton

Car rentals in Brighton

From Bohemian to designer chic

With clear bright skies, the English Channel is as impressive in winter with its steely grey hues as it is beautiful in summer, shimmering turquoise in the sunshine. Brighton offers so many things to do – a stroll on the emblematic Palace Pier, a boat trip from the marina or a visit to Sea Life, a large aquarium near the centre of Brighton (so car hire may not be necessary at first). The Brighton Royal Pavilion offers a display of regency and the electric miniature Volk’s railway takes you to the eastern beach area, then there is Brighton Wheel for great views over the five-mile shingle beach.

Popular bars and clubs offer vibrant nightlife, with holidaymakers and locals alike all drawn by the magnetic beat at the heart of Brighton. The Fishing Museum offers fascinating seagoing history, or why not peruse the art galleries and craft shops in ‘The Lanes’? Apart from the cinema or Theatre Royal, cosmopolitan Kemptown has several fine restaurants and designer clothes shops.

Worthing: worth exploring

Brighton is the finishing post of the annual veteran and vintage car rally, although these days, a modern hire car is more convenient for seeing more of the Sussex coast and beautiful countryside. With your car hire organised, explore Eastbourne and Hastings to the east - or the town of Worthing, to the west past Shoreham airport.

With a sand and pebble beach, its pier is more for fishing and a walk than fairground rides. The naval centre of Portsmouth and modern city of Southampton are further along the coast, as easily reached with car hire as is the New Forest with Exbury Gardens. Cosy pubs offer log fires in winter and beer gardens in summer. Finally, the nearby National Motor Museum at Beaulieu displays original vehicles from numerous James Bond films.

South Downs National Park

With car hire, Beachy Head is an easy day trip to the easterly limit of the South Downs. Harting Down to the west has scenic windmills, photograph opportunities and leisurely cream teas. Arundel Castle has a history dating back to 1068 and the Collector Earl’s garden.

Many Sussex gardens are open to the public, including Wakehurst Palace, with landscaped and formal gardens and exotic and rare plants. Sheffield Park has hypnotic water cascades and fantastic autumn colours, or High Beeches is a romantic option. Not least, picture postcard Bodiam castle is very impressive, and situated near Robertsbridge.
