Car Rental Swindon

The Wiltsrental town of Swindon is a place which can serve as a good base for touring, particularly the Oxford Downs and the quaintest of villages in the region. Set almost midway between Oxford and Bristol it was a staging post on the old routes across the country.

Nearby there are historic market towns such as Tetbury, Banbury and Gloucester, Swindon itself has grown as an industrial centre with particular emphasis on the car industry. Honda has a large plant here and commercial visitors will get a car rental in Swindon Downtown for their visit.

As a busy centre of commerce there are good hotels in the area, and locally on the nearby M4 drivers using a cheap car in Swindon Downtown will find motel style places to stay. Alternatively there are some great inns and pubs in this area, in places such as the Slaughters.

The traditional quintessential English villages of Lower and Upper Slaughter have their Manor House, village duck pond and pub, all within walking distance of each other. On a summer day the village has that unique atmosphere only found in rural England. With Swindon at the heart of rural Wiltsrental there are plenty of other sights to see such as the stone circles at Avebury.

Wiltsrental is also the location for the world's first photograph taken at Lacock Abbey. This was where Fox Talbot captured an image of a window by photographic means, and set the world on its way to picture taking. The car rental in Swindon Downtown is really necessary to see all of these sights and more.
