Cardigan (Aberteifi in Welsh) is a picturesque market town situated at the mouth of the River Teifi, straddling the border between Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire in West Wales. With its rich maritime history, restored castle, and position as a gateway to both the Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire coastlines, Cardigan presents unique transportation needs that our vehicle hire services are ideally positioned to address.

For visitors hiring vehicles in Cardigan, it's worth noting that the town serves as an excellent base for exploring some of Wales' most beautiful coastal scenery. The town is situated on the A487 coastal road, providing good access to Aberystwyth to the north and Fishguard to the south. While limited public transport does serve the town, having your own vehicle is almost essential for exploring the surrounding beaches, coastal paths, and rural attractions at your own pace.

The coastal terrain around Cardigan presents some unique driving considerations. Many of the most beautiful beaches and coves are accessed via narrow country lanes, sometimes with steep gradients. Our compact and mid-sized cars are particularly suitable for navigating these routes, while our larger vehicles are perfect for families needing to transport beach equipment, surfboards, or camping gear.

Cardigan experiences significant seasonal variations in population and activity. During summer months, the town and surrounding areas become much busier with tourists, making advance vehicle booking highly recommended. The shoulder seasons of late spring and early autumn offer a perfect combination of good weather and quieter roads, ideal for exploring with one of our hire vehicles.

Practical considerations for vehicle hire in Cardigan include parking – the town has several car parks, with the main ones located at Bath House Road and Fairfield. Most beaches in the area have dedicated parking, though these can fill quickly during peak season. Fuel stations are available in Cardigan itself, but become more sparse as you venture into the more rural areas, so planning refueling stops is advisable for longer excursions.

Popular day trips from Cardigan include the stunning beaches of Poppit Sands (3 miles), Mwnt (5 miles), and Llangrannog (12 miles). The coastal town of New Quay, famous for its dolphin-watching opportunities, is approximately 20 miles north, while the spectacular Pembrokeshire Coast National Park begins just south of the town. The Preseli Hills, source of the Stonehenge bluestones, offer excellent walking opportunities and are within easy driving distance.

For those interested in cultural attractions, Cardigan Castle in the town center has been beautifully restored and tells the story of the first Eisteddfod. The Welsh Wildlife Centre at Cilgerran is just a few miles upstream, offering excellent nature watching opportunities, while the picturesque village of St Dogmaels with its abbey ruins is just a short drive away. Our range of vehicles ensures you can comfortably reach all these attractions, regardless of your group size or equipment needs.
