KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Rochdale

  • The best thing about hiring a car in Rochdale is the flexibility to tour the city and nearby areas. Public transport follows a schedule that may not be the best fit for you, as it may not align with your plans. Hence renting a car will give you maximum control of your time. Some of the places to visit during your vacation in Rochdale is Hollingworth Lake, which is 5.3 miles from Rochdale town. It will take about 7 minutes to get there via the A640 and B6225 using a car while a bus will take 8 minutes. At Hollingworth Lake, you can enjoy sailing and swimming. Other places near Rochdale include the Rochdale Canal and Touchstone Rochdale for art galleries and museums.
  • On your visit to Rochdale city, you will use Manchester Airport, which is 18.3 miles away. Car Car Rental Village is located near the Long Stay Car Park at the airport. There are also multiple companies operating at this location. The car rental desk is accessible using Manchester Airport Bus, which is free and runs to Rental Village from Airport every 10 minutes. Booking your car in Rochdale car hire through the KAYAK website will save you time at the airport as it will only take a few minutes to confirm your document, and you are given keys and directed to where your car is parked.
  • After hiring a car in Rochdale, remember to drive on the right-hand side of the road if you come from another country. As you drive in Rochdale, you will come across zig-zag road marking as you approach the pedestrian crossing. Do not stop when you come across these markings unless pedestrians are crossing. When you see double yellow lines, you should not park or wait. Double dashed white lines and a triangle on the surface before the junction tells you to stop and give way.
  • To avoid the congestion that happens on major highways, the time for the rush hour is 7.00-9.30 a.m. and 4.00-6.30 p.m. on weekdays. Use Google Maps to assist you in identifying congested roads to avoid them. During winter, ensure the car you book has working AC as the temperature may fall very low.
