Lowestoft car hire

When you book car rental, Lowestoft becomes a fantastic base. Travel along the coast or head inland for precious holiday adventures...

Confine your travels to Suffolk if you wish, though Norfolk is just minutes away and full of tourist treasures.

If you do stay in Suffolk, there's a host of wonderful places to see. On the coast alone you are spoilt for choice with nature reserves, traditional fishing villages and pleasant seaside resorts. Aldeburgh is a popular choice and not just for its fine sea views and striking architecture - it's also got the best fish and chips in Suffolk, official! It takes an hour to drive from Lowestoft to Aldeburgh but the coastal journey is divine. Southwold is only half an hour away and another quintessentially British seaside town. Suffolk is also known as Constable Country, as the famous painter was born here in 1776 and the landscape inspired many of his glorious works depicting bucolic England. 

Heading north from Lowestoft, you'll hit Norfolk before you can say “windmills” and “beaches”. The flatness of the land allows for uninterrupted views that go on and on, capturing scenes of gorgeous sandy beaches, nature reserves, quaint villages and the charming waterways of the Norfolk Broads.  

Tourism highlights in Norfolk include the family seaside destination of Great Yarmouth, which is a mere 20-minute drive from Lowestoft, and the bustling city of Norwich, only 45 minutes by road. There are isolated beaches galore along the Norfolk coast and bird watchers will be in their element in the many protected strips of seashore that attract all manner of feathery creatures. 

There is so much to see in this pretty and peaceful part of England and renting a car really is the most convenient way to make the most of your time here.
