If you want a cheap car hire in Castle Donington, it’s unlikely you’ll need more than a compact vehicle. These are perfect for town driving and for parking in tighter spaces. If you want to travel outside the town, into the countryside, an SUV is a good option. Not only are these suited to urban driving, but they also are great for the uneven and slippery terrain in Nottinghamshire. An SUV also provides you with a more comfortable interior for longer journeys.

Don’t exceed the speed limit in Castle Donington, or you will likely get pulled over by police and prosecuted accordingly. If you drive within the speed limit, you are also less likely to cause an accident. Your car hire company will be informed if you get caught by a speed camera, and they will fine you and pass your details onto the police. The maximum speed you can do in the town is 30 mph. On roads in the countryside you can drive at 60 mph, whereas on main motorways the national speed limit is 70 mph.

Whilst there aren’t loads of places to park in Castle Donington, you should still be able to find a suitable location to leave your car.

You can also park on Borough Street in the centre of the town, free of charge. Another free car park a bit out from the centre is Wilne Lane Car Park.
