KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Barrow-in-Furness

  • When you hire a car in Barrow-in-Furness, you can explore the nearby area at your own pace, choosing where to go, when to go, and how long you stay there. A good reason to hire a car in Barrow-in-Furness is if you're looking to visit some of the incredible landscapes in the area, such as the Lake District, the Yorkshire Dales, the coast, or the many national parks nearby. By choosing to hire a car in Barrow-in-Furness, you remove the need to worry about public transport schedules and fully enjoy the port town and its beautiful natural surroundings.
  • Manchester Airport is the nearest large airport to Barrow-in-Furness, and as one of the biggest airports in the country, it has plenty of car hire companies from which you can choose your ideal hire car. Manchester Airport has offices for Green Motion, Europcar, Easirent, Enterprise, Sixt, Dollar, and Budget. The car hire offices are near the baggage reclaim area in the arrivals terminal. As their opening hours may vary, we recommend getting in touch with them once you have made your booking.
  • While driving in the United Kingdom, you must follow all the national laws when behind the wheel of your hire car in Barrow-in-Furness. For example, you must drive on the left side of the road, and you cannot turn left at a red light. The only time you can turn left at a traffic light is when the light for traffic going straight is green or if there is a separate light for left turns. Vehicles already on a roundabout have priority over those waiting to merge. As a general rule, traffic coming from the right has priority over that coming from the left or waiting.
  • As Barrow-in-Furness is in the United Kingdom and on the west coast of England, it regularly receives rain and wind throughout the year. For this reason, you may have reduced visibility, and the other drivers and pedestrians may also have it. We recommend that you try to avoid driving in the town centre during rush hour, typically around 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., when traffic is the most congested.

FAQs about hiring a car in Barrow-in-Furness

  • What car do you recommend for driving in Barrow-in- Furness?

    If you want to get out of Barrow-in-Furness and visit some nearby areas of natural beauty, we suggest hiring an SUV car in Barrow-in-Furness, as these vehicles tend to be better for driving on country roads with more rugged terrain. However, a compact car or an economy is ideal if you only plan on using your Barrow-in-Furness hire car within the town. A smaller car may be useful for navigating the narrow streets and is easier to park than larger vehicles.

  • What is the speed limit in Barrow-in-Furness?

    The speed limits in Barrow-in-Furness are the same as those in the rest of the United Kingdom, where they will be displayed in miles per hour. You can drive at 30 mph in the built-up areas, but this may be signposted at a reduced speed of 20 mph near a school or dense residential area. Outside the built-up areas, you can travel at up to 60 mph, and the speed limit on the motorways is 70 mph.

  • Where are the best places to park in Barrow-in-Furness?

    You can find plenty of free parking near Walney Road, but you will need to use pay and display in the rest of Barrow-in-Furness. They are typical pay and display ticket machines, but many of them allow you to use an App like RingGo to register your car and pay online. If you want to park in a secure car park, check out Whittaker Street Pay and Display Car Park, which is open 24 hours a day.
