Carlisle car hire

You will only need a compact car to explore the city of Carlisle itself. However, if you’re travelling into the countryside towards Scotland, a 4x4 is recommended as it will deal with the off-road surfaces better.

Carlisle has a mix of speed limits. More residential areas of the city are limited to 20mph, while other parts of the centre are 30mph and Brampton Old Road has a limit of 40mph. There are lots of speed cameras in the UK, and Carlisle is no different, so make sure you stick to the speed limits in place.

You can park at Viaduct Car Park for £1.20 for 1h, or £3.60 for the entire day. Alternatively, you can park at West Walls Car Park for £1.20 for 1h, or £4.10 for the whole day. Both of these are located in the city centre and within walking distance of the main attractions.
