KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Yeovil

  • Yeovil is situated midway between Exeter (west) and Salisbury (east) in the county of Somerset. It is a focal point for the aircraft and defence industries, with proximity to several primary roads linking the town in all directions. With car hire in Yeovil you can take full advantage of these road networks and enjoy the convenience of exploring Somerset and beyond without the limitations imposed by public transportation. Cardiff lies some 90 miles north-west along the M5, while Falmouth Harbour is a good 145-mile stretch south-west along the A30.
  • If you’re looking to save time, you can reserve car hire in Yeovil while booking your flight into Bristol Airport (BRS). Keddy by Europcar, Enterprise and Sunnycars are among the providers at the airport from which you can collect your vehicle and make the 31-mile journey to the town centre. There is a free shuttle bus which will transport you the short distance from the terminal building to the car hire centre.
  • The A30, A37 and A359 are the major roadways for inbound and outbound traffic from Yeovil and may experience some congestion during morning and evening rush hours. The Crofton Park district includes the town centre as well as its main hospital and university, so you can anticipate moderate pedestrian and cycle traffic in this area during these periods. Summer traffic between June and September is likely to cause slight increases in overall traffic patterns, especially in the downtown area.
  • Yeovil College Roundabout and Hospital Roundabout are magnets for traffic slow-downs during the hours of 07:00 to 08:00 and again from 19:00 to 20:00 if you’re driving downtown. Outbound traffic along the A30 and A37 may be moderate in the centre but dissipate as you escape the town precincts. This pattern may reverse due to inbound traffic during the evening hours. Horsey Roundabout, south of Crofton Park, is an active area during the afternoon hours from 13:00 to 15:00, not to mention the town centre itself with its administrative buildings and shops.
  • Medium hire cars in Yeovil are around 55% cheaper than other car types, on average

They took my booking then called me to tell me there were no cars available, except for bigger models at a much higher price. The deal should not have been available online if they had no cars. I had to get a refund.
