Car Hire Reviews Chippenham

  • “The pick-up was easy, it took 5 minutes from arriving at the desk to driving out the car, and the return took even less time.”

Where to go

Chippenham is a great location with plenty to do both nearby and further away. You can explore the market town, take a trip into rural Wiltshire to view the beautiful countryside, enjoy the Roman ruins of historic Bath or travel even further to Wales or the south of England.

Nearby

Chippenham is surrounded by a number of stone-built settlements such as Lacock, an unspoilt village renowned for its beauty. There are also several stately homes to explore, such as Bowood House or Longleat. And of course you can experience Chippenham itself; the town has a history dating back to neolithic times, so it has plenty of hidden gems to see.

Longer drives

As mentioned, Bath is just 13 miles away along the A4, where you will find a range of history, culture and entertainment. There is also Bristol less than an hour's drive away; simply take the A350, enter the M4 at junction 17, then change to the M32 at junction 19.

Eating and drinking

As an old-fashioned, historic English town, you can be sure to find a good pub meal in Chippenham. The region is a producer of fine cask ale, and if you're looking for ingredients to cook yourself then there is almost always a farmers' market on nearby.

Things to do

Chippenham Museum and Heritage Centre tells the story of the town from its prehistoric origins. It's a great place to visit with children, with plenty of interactive displays, but it also has a good amount of in-depth information for those looking to get into the history of Chippenham.

Sightseeing

If you have a spare hour, Stonehenge is an easy drive away. The famous stone circle - thought to be over 5,000 years old - can be reached by taking the A342 followed by the A360. It is a treasured British monument and makes for a great day out.
