The roads in Durham are so well-maintained that you will be able to navigate the terrain with absolute ease, meaning a car hire in Durham should be curated around your budget, itinerary and taste. The most popular cars hired in the region are compact economy vehicles that save on fuel, zip through streets and provide a comfortable journey. However, if a luxury vehicle is more your thing, as long as you are 25 or over you can spring for something premium while in Durham.
UK speed limits are pretty standard, and of course, highly important to observe. Speed cameras on motorways and main roads will present with an unpleasant surprise when the fines arrive in the post. If you are in the city, near the university or around schools, keep it cool at 30 mph (48 km). When on main roads away from the city you can up the speed to 60 mph (96 km) and when on the motorways you can test your Durham car hire to 70 mph (112 km).
Parking in Durham has endless choices. Being quite a large and metropolitan city it is dotted with car parks both for long-stay and short-stay parking. If you can find parking on the streets with the paid-parking system of the city, make sure you have paid the right amount to avoid a surprise fine when you return. Alternatively there are some great car parks such as Walkergate Car Park, Sidegate Car Park, Prince Bishops Car Park and Durham Station Short Stay Car Park.

Some Durham car providers already include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection Waiver into the hire price but not all of them. We recommend being aware of your coverage when hiring a car in Durham.
Keep in mind that car hire insurances often have a deductible clause, which is the amount you’ll have to pay if something happens during the time of your hire. If you want to avoid unwanted surprises, you should consider adding a non-deductible option to your Durham car hire.
