Hiring a car at Brighton

With a population of 285,300, Brighton is a vibrant town, known for its cultural and social scene as well as its popular seaside location for superb coastal driving in your Enterprise hire vehicle. Right on the south coast, with stunning Georgian and Regency architecture, Brighton has many sights to see and enjoy. For example, visit the Royal Pavilion or the famous Brighton Pier. The whole family will enjoy Sea Life on the town's seafront. If you're planning a trip further afield in your hire vehicle, you must visit the South Downs and take in Devil's Dyke. The Sussex countryside is also within easy reach, with lots of walks to enjoy, such as around Ditchling Beacon. As well as being a popular commuter town, Brighton is an important business and retail hub. You might be visiting the Hollingbury Industrial Estate in your hire vehicle, for example. For those who love to shop, Brighton is a real treat, with its narrow alleyways full of clothes stores, jewellery outlets and antique dealers. There's also the Churchill Square Shopping Centre, with its large car park for parking your rental car before enjoying the many enticing stores. The Brighton Enterprise branch is just to the north of the town centre on New England Street. It's within walking distance of Brighton Central and London Road train stations, and just a little further from the National Express coach station, which is close to the seafront. The Enterprise Rent-A-Car branch is right on the A720, a main road that runs to the north, east and west of the town centre.
