Weymouth car hire

A small economy vehicle is ideally suited to the inner town roads and country lanes surrounding Weymouth. For longer trips along the Jurassic Coast or busy motorways, something with a little extra boost like a saloon or an SUV will probably be better. In the height of the summer, a convertible is a stylish option.

The speed limit in the centre of Weymouth is 30mph unless stated otherwise (like when there are roadworks, for example). On main roads, dual carriageways, and motorways, the limit tends to vary between 50-70mph. Average speed checks and cameras are common across the UK, so keep an eye out or set your sat-nav to alert you when they’re approaching.

Finding a place to park your car hire in Weymouth can be difficult during the summer season. You’ll be lucky to find a spot next to the beach, but there are a number of car parks just a few minutes’ walk away. The Britannia multi-storey car park, for example, has 469 spaces and costs £1.40 per hour. Another option is the Weymouth Park & Ride. It’s free to park your car, all you have to do is pay for your bus ticket. Buses run every 20min and take you to the centre of town in around 10min.
