KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Cwmbran

  • Booking car hire in Cwmbran is a great idea, as the town is in the middle of a region rich in Welsh and Roman history. Relying on public transport to get around means you'll have to stick to predetermined routes and timetables and face quite a bit of walking to get from the stops to your destination. Alternatively, you can easily drive to Newport and visit the National Roman Legion Museum, Usk Castle and the Blaenavon World Heritage Centre.
  • Cardiff Airport (CWL) is the nearest airport to Cwmbran, about 22.5 miles from the town. You can conveniently book car hire in Cwmbran from here, and it will take roughly 45min to drive to the town on the M4. All of the hire car companies can be found in the Car Hire Centre. To get there, walk from Arrivals to the terminal building exit, then turn left and follow the signs. It's only a short way from the terminal.
  • If you've opted for car hire in Cwmbran, you shouldn’t have any trouble finding your way around, as the streets are laid out in a simple grid pattern. Expect a lot of roundabouts – there are purportedly more of these than in any other Welsh town. The local drivers are accommodating and you can expect the driving conditions to be relaxed. The road markings and signposts are clearly designated, making it easy to follow the local regulations.
  • The only real difficulties you can expect when driving in Cwmbran are the traffic congestion during rush hours, albeit light, as well as speeding or tailgating on certain roads. The rush hours aren't intense and don't last long, but they still slow traffic enough to notice. These are from around 07:00 to 08:00 and again in the late afternoon from about 16:30 to 18:00. Be a bit careful on Llantarnam Road, as its speed limit has been reduced, but many drivers still drive at the old speed and sometimes tailgate those who stick to it.
  • Medium hire cars in Cwmbran are around 52% cheaper than other car types, on average

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Cwmbran?

    As a general rule of thumb, it's always best to get a smallish vehicle in smaller towns like these. Choose something like a hatchback or a city vehicle for Cwmbran car hire, as you won't need anything more powerful, especially if you're spending most of your time in the town centre. That being said, you won't have any problem driving a larger vehicle either, so if you're on holiday with your family or a group of friends, you can happily go for an SUV or MPV. EV charging points are available at Cwmbran Centre, so feel free to hire an electric vehicle too.

  • What's the speed limit in Cwmbran?

    Welsh speed limits are the same as those you'll be used to in other parts of the UK. This means that you can only drive at up to 30 mph in urban areas and built-up residential districts. When you get onto single carriageways, the speed limit is 60 mph. Once you're on the motorways visiting other towns in the region, you can drive at up to 70 mph. However, look out for the signposted limits all the time, as some of the roads downtown only allow you to drive at 40 mph.

  • Where are the best places to park in Cwmbran?

    You'll be happy to hear that it's free to park in most of the car parks in Cwmbran. You'll find these dotted all across the town. The supermarkets and shopping centres all offer free parking for customers, so it won't cost you anything when you're picking up provisions. Examples of free public car parks are the small one on Charles Street and the larger one at 14 Llan-Yr-Avon Square. You can also park for free at the Hollybush car park and the one on Cwmynyscoy Road.
