Pembrokeshire car hire

Hiring a car in Pembrokeshire is a great way to explore the Welsh countryside and regional coastline, as you are free to explore at your own pace, avoiding the need for public transport, which may be patchy or limited in some rural areas. The Pembrokeshire Coast National Park area makes for spectacular scenery, and you can take in 190 miles of coastal paths. Haverfordwest is the county’s major town, and you can find the other towns of Milford Haven and Tenby along the coast, the latter being famous for its land speed races along the flat stretches of beach. You can visit the neighbouring regions of Carmarthenshire or visit the cities of Swansea or Cardiff if you hire a vehicle, which may also be useful for airport connections.

Driving in Pembrokeshire and throughout Wales is undertaken on the left-hand side of the road, which is the same as throughout the United Kingdom. All roads are toll free in Wales, including bridges like the large bridge over River Severn, which is useful if you are connecting from England. Wales has limited motorways (with just 83 miles of motorway road), all of which are in the south; the second major road is the dual carriageway A470, which connects Cardiff to the South Wales Valley region. Be prepared for quiet, country roads in the rural West Wales area of Pembrokeshire; they are less congested due to a sparse population, making for a pleasant and relaxing driving experience. It is not uncommon to see flocks of sheep on the roads or herds of deer in the woodland areas, which should move on as they see you approaching, so be sure to exercise caution and limit your speed.

You need to be 21 years of age to hire a car in the United Kingdom; although, some companies may stipulate a higher age, depending on the vehicle you wish to hire. There may also be a surcharge for drivers under 25. You must have a full and valid photographic driving licence issued in your country of residence. In the United Kingdom, the paper counterpart is no longer required.
