Due to the small, compact streets in the centre of Torquay, you may find it easier driving a smaller car. It will also help when it comes to parking. If you’re planning on heading into the countryside or further afield for the day, an SUV might be a better option for your Torquay car hire, as it’s a larger vehicle and will handle the roads better.
Much like the rest of the UK, Torquay operates a 20mph speed limit in many of its residential zones. Other parts of the town centre are 30mph, so keep an eye out for changes in the speed limit as cameras operate in this region. Roads into and out of the city vary in terms of speed limit, with the A380 being 50mph and others further away from the centre being 70mph.
You can park at Shedden Hill Car Park for £1.40 for up to 1h, or £8.50 for over a day. Alternatively, you can park at Harbour Car Park for exactly the same price. Both these car parks are located next to the marina, so you’ll be right where all the action is happening once you’ve parked your car.

Some Torquay 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 Torquay.
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 Torquay car hire.
