We suggest that you consider using an economy or compact car hire in Cheltenham,  as they will be the easiest vehicles to control as you drive through the narrow streets of the town. They will also make parking in the town centre easier as the vehicle is smaller. If you would like to explore a bit further afield, then you may want to rent an intermediate car or an SUV as they will be more comfortable and better prepared to deal with any country roads.

The speed limits in the built-up areas of Cheltenham are the same as those across the Untied Kingdom, and the maximum speed you can travel at is 30mph. You may find some reduced areas, particularly where children cross or play, and if there are any changes either up or down, they will be signposted. Regional roads may reach speed limits of 60mph, and the motorway speed limit is capped at 70mph.

You will find plenty of places to park your car hire in Cheltenham, including both car parks and on street parking spaces. The town of Cheltenham has plenty of free parking spaces throughout the town, and we recommend that when parking, you check for either a parking meter or any signs that may warn you that it is illegal to park there. Otherwise, if you would like to park in a car park, we recommend parking in the Rodney Road Car Park, although it closes at 20.00. Another option is to park at the St Georges Road Car Park.
