KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Brentwood

  • When you book car hire in Brentwood, you'll be exploring London's commuter belt at your own pace. The town will keep you busy day and night with several country parks for daytime hikes, picnics and outdoor activities for the family. When night falls, put your dancing shoes on and investigate the vibrant club, bar and restaurant scene. Jam-pack your itinerary with as many fun activities as you can without having to wait for public transport. Add Hopefield Animal Sanctuary, Childerditch Pond and Weald Country Park to your daytime plans.
  • London Southend Airport (SEN) is the nearest airport to Brentwood, just 20 miles away. Be on your way in no time when you book a car hire in Brentwood and collect the vehicle directly from the airport. There is a car hire centre Landside in the Arrivals Terminal. The most popular car hire company at the airport is Europcar. They offer a wide range of vehicles for different types of travellers. There are three types of car parks at the airport, and you'll be collecting or dropping off your car hire at the long stay parking lot.
  • Driving through Brentwood is not a challenging experience as the roads are well maintained and laid out in a manner that is easy to navigate. However, you will need to stay on high alert, especially while driving around the busy town centre. The fact that Brentwood is a commuter belt, means the roads are busy most of the time. There are a few large roundabouts to ease the flow of traffic which need to be entered carefully as they can get very busy during high peak traffic periods.
  • The biggest problem you'll face navigating a car hire in Brentwood is driving during increased congestion times. The roads get particularly busy during commuter hours when people are heading to work or home again. You'll also find that because of the constant road usage, roads being closed due to maintenance is not uncommon. Avoid driving from 6am to 8:30am on weekdays while evening traffic starts at around 5pm to 7pm.
  • Book your rental car in Brentwood at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Compact rental cars in Brentwood are around 26% cheaper than other car types, on average
