KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Castleford

  • Some of the popular tourist destinations in Castleford, like the Xscape Centre and Diggerland adventure theme park, may not have direct public transport links, but Castleford car hire can provide easy access. Hiring a cheap car hire in Castleford can also be more cost-effective when compared to other transportation options like taxis or public transport, if you are planning to visit various locations or travelling in a group. Castleford is also close to several popular tourist destinations like York, Leeds, and the Yorkshire Dales, and a hire car can make it easier to go on day trips to these places.
  • The car hire offices at Manchester Airport (MAN) are located in a dedicated car hire village, which is a short distance from the terminals. All terminals at Manchester Airport have access to the car hire village via a complimentary shuttle bus service. The shuttle bus picks up passengers from each terminal and takes them to the car-hire village. Several major rental car companies have offices at Manchester Airport, including Avis, Enterprise, Europcar, Hertz, and Budget. Customers can choose from a wide variety of Castleford car hire types and car hire terms.
  • Castleford may have heavier traffic during peak hours, particularly around the town centre and major roads. Drivers should expect some congestion and delays during peak hours in Castleford, but generally the number of cars on the roads is usually fewer. Other drivers may also drive aggressively or impatiently, but it is still best to follow the rules and stay safe. There may be some bicycles on the road, especially along designated bike lanes and routes. Drivers should give them enough room, and watch out for them when turning or changing lanes.
  • Castleford is surrounded by many rural areas that can present additional challenges for drivers. These roads may be narrow, poorly marked, and may have blind turns that require extra caution. Additionally, Castleford can experience higher than normal amounts of pedestrians and bicyclists on the road, which adds another layer of difficulty for drivers. During peak hours, which are typically from 7:00 to 9:00 and 16:00 to 18:00 on weekdays, major roads such as the M62, M1, and A1 can be particularly affected.
