You have a free hand when it comes to choosing from the various Oviedo car hire options. As the roads are good, you don't have to take that into consideration, and the lack of traffic congestion means you don't have to restrict yourself to the most compact cars. Take advantage of the roads and the scenery to take road trips in a roomy air-conditioned saloon, or pack the whole family into an MPV, where everyone will have enough space. Driving around northern Spain in a sports car might be something you want to treat yourself too, but a word of warning – don't get a convertible, as it's liable to rain all year round in this region.

There are three different speed limits for built-up areas in Spain, including Oviedo. You can only drive at up to 20 km/h (about 12mph) on the inner town roads shared with pedestrians. On one-lane roads, the speed limit is 30 km/h (about 19 mph), rising to 50 km/h (about 31 mph) where there are two lanes. Travelling between towns you can drive at up to 90 km/h (about 56 mph), and on motorways the speed limit is 120 km/h (about 75 mph). Note that there is also a minimum speed limit of 60 km/h (about 37 mph) on motorways.

There are plenty of car parks all over Oviedo, so you'll generally have no problem finding a spot near your destination. ElParking operates a few of these, charging around €1.20 (£1.00) per hour. Two of the largest are ElParking Lope de Vega and ElParking Plaza de la Alameda. For all-day parking at a very reasonable flat rate of about €12.00 (£10.00), head to Parking el Carbonero on Calle Padre Suarez.
