KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Pontypridd

  • When choosing car hire in Pontypridd, you opt for greater freedom of travel, and the ability to access off-the-beaten destinations in your own time without the hassle of waiting for public transport. If you have your own car, you can visit Brecon Beacons National Park, a picturesque National Park famed for its stunning landscapes, waterfalls and mountains. If you are a history buff, take a ride to the Castell Coch in Tongwynlais, a 19th-century Gothic Revival castle. You can also visit the well-known Cardiff Castle, and go back in time for a Medieval treat.
  • Collecting your car hire in Pontypridd after you arrive at the Cardiff Wales Airport (CWL) is convenient and speedy, as the car hire counters are situated right inside the main terminal building in the Arrivals hall. Take your pre-booked documents with you, collect your keys, and be on the road in no time. You should pre-book to make sure you get your desired choice of car, but you can also book a car at the airport for an emergency.
  • Driving in Pontypridd should be fairly simple, but try and brush up on any local road rules before you venture out. The city town centre is made up of narrow winding streets, and they can get congested at busy times of the day. Outside the town centre, there are many major roads connecting you to areas outside the city, which are well maintained and signposted. There are many pedestrians in the city, so be aware and alert and make sure you have Pontypridd car hire insurance policies in place.
  • When hitting the road with your car hire in Pontypridd, be aware, there may be some difficulties to navigate. There will be traffic congestion during peak commuting hours, particularly on major routes like the A470 and A4058. These peak times are usually from 07:00 to 09:00 and 16:00 to 18:00. You should also familiarise yourself with the roundabout rules, as these are very common. You need to give way to traffic already on the roundabout and indicate when exiting.

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Pontypridd?

    When choosing your vehicle type for Pontypridd car hire, take into consideration whether you will be road tripping or simply staying in the city. A small compact car is perfect for inner city driving, but if you are planning on taking a road trip to national parks and tourist attractions, you should consider getting a larger SUV or even a van, if you are travelling in a large group. This offers extra room and boot space, larger tyres for safety (especially in wet weather), and the convenience of air conditioning or heating on chilly days.

  • What’s the speed limit in Pontypridd?

    Make sure you obey the local traffic road rules when using Car hire in Pontypridd, as the Welsh Government has now passed a law reducing the speed limits on restricted roads from 30 mph (50 km/h) to 20 mph (30 km/h). The national speed limit for highways is 70 mph (112 km/h) on dual carriageways, and 60 mph (96 km/h) on single carriageways. Make sure to keep an eye out on the traffic signage, as roads can change from one system to another quickly and speeds will then need to be reduced.

  • Where are the best places to park in Pontypridd ?

    Finding a parking spot during peak seasons can be difficult when using Pontypridd Car hire, so you should rather use one of the many car parks around the city. You can park for a few hours or a whole day, and then take to the streets by foot to save you the hassle of finding a street parking, which isn’t easy to come by. You can choose from Taff Street Car Park in the city centre, Gas Road Car Park, Sardis Road Car Park near the rugby ground, River Street Car Park or the Pontypridd Train Station Car Park, if you're planning to use public transportation. There are different prices at each car park, but generally the costs are from £1 for 4 hours, but many car parks are free for up to 2 hours.
