Chester car hire

Chester is a relatively compact city with lots of tourism throughout the year, so it would be advised that you choose a small car for your car hire in Chester. A smaller car will also help you find parking spots which other, larger cars might not be able to fit into.

When driving through residential zones in Chester, you must keep to the 20mph speed limit which has been put in place. In the city centre, there are areas, however, where the speed limit is still 30mph. Although, due to the nature of the roads, it may be hard to drive this fast. Leaving Chester to drive to Manchester, there are motorways, such as the M56, which have the national speed limit of 70mph.

Parking at Chester Racecourse is always a popular option because, from just £4, you can park for the entire day close to the city centre. Other great places to park include NCP Car Park on Pepper Street or Cuppin Street Car Park, both of which are only a short walk from the centre of the city, albeit a little more expensive, starting at £6 for 2h.
