Car Rental Devon

Devon is a county in the southwest of the UK. It is one of the largest counties in the country, as well as being the only one with two coastlines. These two coastlines attract large numbers of visiting tourists each year, as do Devon's two national parks. Devon is not particularly well-known for its large cities, but cheap car rental in Devon Downtown is readily available.

Plymouth and Exeter are Devon's two biggest cities and the gateway to the rest of the county. They are both good places to locate car rental in Devon Downtown. Trains depart for Exeter from London Waterloo Station, and then get here via Salisbury. Travelers heading on to Plymouth can change at Exeter St David's Station.

A cheaper way of getting to Exeter could be by taking the Megabus service from London Victoria. Tickets are very cheap, but buses are said to be uncomfortable and can arrive very late. At the other end of the scale, travelers can fly to either Plymouth Airport or Exeter Airport, on any number of routes.

While many visitors take a traditional beach vacation in Devon, more active types might like to visit one of Devon's two main national parks. Dartmoor National Park is the closest one to Plymouth and Exeter; it's easy to get here with car rental in Devon Downtown.

Farther afield is Exmoor National Park, in northeast Devon. Exmoor is shared with Devon's neighboring county, Somerset. In fact more than two-thirds of Exmoor is located in Somerset. However, the parts in Devon are regarded as the most scenic. West of Exmoor are several popular beach towns, such as Ilfracombe and Woolacombe.
