Base your vehicle choice on the size of your party, whether you're travelling alone, with a partner or your family, or with a group of friends. It's not difficult to drive an SUV here, and for road trips you can opt for a nice, roomy MPV or saloon. Dunstable also has a number of EV charging stations, so feel free to hire an electric car if you prefer.
