Hiring a car at Penrith

Penrith is a market town in Cumbria, very close to the Lake District National Park. That makes it an interesting place to explore, which you can accomplish easily thanks to the deals offered by Enterprise Rent-A-Car. The town's most prominent feature is the ruined Penrith Castle, built in the 15th century. The Penrith Museum has an exhibition of pottery dating from the Roman era, as well as displays dealing with the history of the town and the region. With the help of Enterprise, you can easily drive to the impressive mountains and tranquil valleys of the Lake District or stay in Penrith itself which, despite its relatively small size, has a working historic cinema, the Lonsdale. Close to Penrith you'll find attractions such as Lowther Castle, with its extensive gardens, and the Lakeland Birds of Prey Centre. There's also the Rheged Centre, which mixes a range of shops with a look at the region's heritage. The Penrith branch of Enterprise can be found west of the town centre, just off Haweswater Road; the turning is close to an animal feed factory.
