Top Tips for Hiring a Convertible Car in Newquay

  • Newquay is one of the premier beach resorts on the English south coast. When you want to travel around it in a refined style, Newquay convertible car hire is the way to go. In addition to steering a luxurious ride, you own the convenience and freedom to explore the city without the bother of public transport. From Porth Beach (east) to Pentire Headland (west) is about 23 miles (37 km) and covers the coastline beaches. You can also take the trip to Penzance and discover its famous pirate coves. It's approx. 33 miles (53 km) via A3075/A30 from Newquay city centre.
  • In Newquay, the minimum age to hire a vehicle is 21; unfortunately, young drivers under 25 will be hit with surcharges by the airport's major providers. However, you can find a car hire centre at Newquay Cornwall Airport if you’re visiting by air, and it has a couple of major providers: Hertz and Europcar. An advanced reservation means you get to drive off in a late-model convertible that seats five and comes with a roomy boot. In such cases, be sure to research things like fuel policy and insurance before you book a vehicle.
  • In Newquay, drive on the left side of the road. Make sure everyone is wearing a seat belt and that the hands-free mobile device is plugged-in before you leave the car park. There is excellent CCTV coverage around the city, so drive smart on the road. That means only driving at 50 mph (80 km/h) through residential neighbourhoods, 60 mph (100 km/h) in rural areas and up to 70 mph (110 km) along dual carriageways and motorways. It also means never getting behind the wheel under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Dial 999 if you or others experience an emergency situation.
  • If you’re enjoying a leisure break in the summer, you should expect high overall traffic volumes in Newquay. As an extremely popular area, you should also anticipate massive amounts of pedestrian activity, especially in the city centre and near the pier. Gannel Road/A392 is the main artery into the city from the west & south, while A3058 carves its way northward from the Boating Lake through the city centre to Tesco Express. These are key roadways for tie-ups or congestion during the morning, afternoon and evening rush hours.

FAQs About Hiring a Convertible Car in Newquay

  • What are the best locations to hire a convertible car in Newquay?

    For those arriving by air, the car hire centre at Newquay Cornwall Airport is a no-brainer. However, the city also has a busy railway station during the summer, and you can get here from London Paddington Station. Budget, Enterprise and Sunnycars are the three main providers with offices in the central area, and arrangements for a pick-up at station parking may be possible. The same should also apply to Newquay Bus Station.

  • What are the best places to park convertible car hire in Newquay?

    If you’re lucky enough to find free on-street parking in Newquay (roads with White Lines and no signs) during the peak summer months, consider yourself rather fortunate. For all others, there are many metered parking spaces available on the street and at city-owned or private parking garages. These are generally Pay & Display, and you can feed the meters with cards, mobile apps or cash.

  • What documents do I need to hire a convertible car in Newquay?

    Foreign visitors to Newquay seeking convertible car hire should have a valid passport, ID, domestic driving licence, and a valid International Driving Permit ready. If you’re a local on holiday, your ID, driver’s licence, and insurance papers should suffice. Also, bring a major credit card or bank debit card for payment. Providers insist that the name on your payment card should match your ID/driver’s licence to avoid unnecessary complications.

  • How does KAYAK find such low convertible car hire prices?

    KAYAK compares convertible car hire prices from all major car hire companies such as Thrifty, Dollar, Enterprise, Hertz, Payless and more to find you the best deal.

Car was great and pick up was great. Drop off felt like I was getting gouged. Was charged 35gbp for a cleaning fee when the car was spotless except for some routine sand on the floorboards. Was told by the attendant that sand was a mandatory cleaning charge which I’ve never heard of in my years of travel.
