Alternatively, there is a regular bus service that travels the route.

Cheap Van and Car Rental in Bath

Car hire is a very competitive business and Enterprise work hard to offer great deals to all their customers so that they will return time and again. While Enterprise offers cheap deals, there is nothing cheap about either the service or the vehicles. Vehicles are regularly serviced and maintained in tiptop condition, and when you collect your vehicle, it will be spotlessly clean, both inside and out. It is always best to book car hire in advance to avoid disappointment and to be certain you can book the vehicle of your choice.

Bath Van Hire

Customers hire vans in all sizes for all kinds of reasons, and Enterprise strives to meet their requirements. That is why they have a fleet of well-maintained vehicles from leading providers. Enterprise truly does offer vans for any purpose, ranging from small Vauxhall Astra vans that are ideal for small businesses where the need to transport goods, tools and equipment is not great, through to larger commercial vehicles, such as the Renault Master or Ford Luton vans, with tail-lifts for serious haulage jobs.

A Wide Range of Vehicles to Hire

Enterprise understands the many different reasons why people come to them to hire a vehicle, which is why they maintain a large and varied fleet. You may need a small economical runabout to stand in while your own car gets repaired, or perhaps you are planning a long drive and want a roomy car with some power behind it. People carriers are great for large families or to take your hobby group out on that long-awaited theatre visit or day trip. Enterprise even offers executive vehicles for those special occasions, such as an anniversary or prom night.
