KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Weston-super-Mare
- When you arrange a quick and easy car hire in Weston Super Mare, it gives you so much more to see and do. Not only can you explore this wonderful coastal town on your own terms, but discovering its surrounding areas is an absolute breeze too. Once you’ve checked out the famous Helicopter Museum or spent a lazy day on the beach, you can drive along the picturesque coast and stop off at quaint seaside villages and towns like Watchet or Clevedon. Alternatively, you can head inland to the Mendip Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty for incredible hikes and lake views. The hip city of Bristol is only around 45min away for a night out on the town.
- Bristol Airport is a 30min drive from Weston Super Mare and hosts a number of car hire companies to choose from. Find the likes of Alamo, Avis and Sixt at the car hire centre located near the Silver Zone Car Park. A short shuttle service is available from the main terminal building, where you’ll also pick up and drop off your vehicle. Better yet, it’s right next to the A38, so you’ll be on the road to Weston Super Mare in a matter of minutes.

Pay extra attention to pedestrians crossing the road when driving around the beach and central areas of town. It’s a relatively simple town to get around with good road systems and connections, although there are a number of narrow one-way streets. You may want to add a sat-nav to your booking if you’re unfamiliar. That being said, drivers are considerate, so don’t worry if you lose your way a little.

Families tend to come for the weekend or even just the day when their children aren’t at school. It’s advisable to avoid travelling on Sunday evenings when people are leaving to go back to work for the week. Roads like the M5 can be busy throughout the year with commuters driving in and out of Bristol. Rush hour tends to be between 07:30-09:30 and 16:30-18:00.

Cons:
We had to wait for a long time to have the gentleman who man's the rental station at the hotel near Bristol airport to come in, and left almost an HOUR after we got to the hotel! Car tank was only HALF full. I was charged an extra 30 POUNDS for gas that was not disclosed to me at Kayak rental PLUS another amount for liability insurance that the gentleman at counter said was required by law. I had purchased Kayak insurance already and was surprised that I had to pay this extra. And now there a further $68 charge on my credit card account from Easirent for what, I have no idea!!!2.0 Poor
