KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Huddersfield

  • Take in the sites and scenery of Huddersfield with a hire car and enjoy the flexibility that comes with it. Huddersfield car hire provides you with the freedom to explore this glorious market town at your leisure and makes it even easier to get to popular tourist sites surrounding the town. In around 11min you could be at Castle Hill, a historical landmark on the outskirts of Huddersfield, which is much quicker than alternative transport options such as by bus.
  • Around 28 miles from Huddersfield town centre is one of the largest international airports in the north of England, Manchester Airport (MAN). Approximately a 50-minute drive from the town centre, at this airport you’ll find a wide range of companies to pick from. Household names such as Enterprise, Hertz and Europcar can all be located in the Manchester Airport Car Rental Village. To get to there, you can follow the signs to the bus stops at each terminal, where you’ll be able to jump on a free shuttle bus. These leave regularly at approximately 10min intervals.
  • Huddersfield is a rather busy market town in the north of England, sandwiched between two larger cities, Manchester and Leeds. Whilst the city centre itself is small, the residential areas are quite vast in comparison, so a sat nav could be very helpful when driving your car hire in Huddersfield. Close to the town centre is Huddersfield University, which has thousands of students completing their studies, so beware of students crossing the road when going to and from the university.
  • Huddersfield’s roads get far busier during rush hour due to many of its residents driving to the neighbouring cities for work. If you don’t want to get stuck in traffic, try avoiding travel between 08:00 and 09:00 and 17:00 and 18:00, especially on Castlegate and Queensgate ring road, which connect to the main entrance and exit roads to the town. Due to its location in the north of England, Huddersfield is also likely to get snow during winter months, which can cause congestion on the roads and major delays. Weekends can also get popular with fans flocking to the town to see their rugby idols play for Huddersfield Rugby Union Football Club, so it’s advised to check the fixture list to avoid traffic before and after games on a match day.
  • There is plenty to see here, and opting for cheap car hire in Huddersfield will only ease your travel burden. Among the locations to visit is Folly Dolly Falls, located roughly 6 miles from the Huddersfield city centre; it will take you approximately 15min to complete the journey. You can also visit Oakwell Country Park, located roughly 11 miles from downtown. It will take you about 20min to complete the journey via your Huddersfield hire car, whereas a bus or train would likely take you more than an hour. Hiring a car will not only make your journey comfortable but also reduce your travel time.
  • When opting for cheap car hire in Huddersfield, you will need to meet a couple of requirements. Among these is having a valid driver’s licence. In some cases, if your licence is not printed in English, you must obtain an International Driving License. Additionally, to acquire a hire car, you must have a minimum age of 19 years. However, those under 25 could get charged extra for the service. Most Huddersfield car hire companies also impose an upper age limit of 70 years for anyone who wishes to acquire their services.
  • When hiring a cheap car in Huddersfield, you can choose to have some extras added to your vehicle to enhance your comfort while travelling. One of the add-ons you can have installed in your vehicle is a GPS, which could assist you adequately in navigating the streets, especially where you are not familiar. It can also help you in navigating traffic by offering you alternative routes, which could save you much time. You can also have a child seat installed in your vehicle to help secure your child while travelling. This not only enhances your child’s comfort but also their safety during your travel in the hire car.
  • Book your car hire in Huddersfield at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
