KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Bridgwater

  • Car hire in Bridgwater is a great opportunity to explore the busy inland port or drive through the West Quay, along Castle Street and King Square. Peruse the Georgian townhouses before heading out to some of the main attractions like the Bridgwater Blake Museum, the EDF's Hinkley Point Visitor Centre, and the Bridgwater and Taunton Canal. You can do all of this without trying to figure out the public transport system or relying on someone else's schedule. Local taxis and city cabs can also be expensive so hiring a car will save you in the long run.
  • The nearest airport offering car hire in Bridgwater is Bristol Airport, which is about 40 minutes away by car. Nine national and international car hire companies provide services at the Bristol Airport and operate out of the car Hire Centre, located down the road by the Silver Zone Car Park. There is a free shuttle bus that'll transfer you from the airport to the centre on demand. Consider booking your vehicle online to avoid dealing with availability issues and to save time and money.
  • Driving in Bridgwater is as easy as driving in most places in the UK. The roads are well maintained and wide enough to accommodate all vehicle types. The traffic is aided by traffic lights and roundabouts. When entering the roundabout, the cars inside have right of way so you'll need to yield. If you're driving in the centre, pay attention to speed limits and be aware of pedestrian crossings. There are often bicycles on the road as well so take note of them.
  • There aren't many difficulties with driving in Bridgwater thanks to a good flow of traffic and well-maintained roads. Traffic can get a bit heavy during peak hours, so if you want to avoid getting stuck on the road for a few extra minutes, steer clear during the morning and evening commutes. Morning peak hours are usually between 6:30am and 8:00am, and the evening traffic is usually from around 5:30pm until 7:00pm. Other than that, you shouldn't have any problems driving in Bridgwater.
