KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Barrow-in-Furness
- When you hire a car in Barrow-in-Furness, you can explore the nearby area at your own pace, choosing where to go, when to go, and how long you stay there. A good reason to hire a car in Barrow-in-Furness is if you're looking to visit some of the incredible landscapes in the area, such as the Lake District, the Yorkshire Dales, the coast, or the many national parks nearby. By choosing to hire a car in Barrow-in-Furness, you remove the need to worry about public transport schedules and fully enjoy the port town and its beautiful natural surroundings.
- Manchester Airport is the nearest large airport to Barrow-in-Furness, and as one of the biggest airports in the country, it has plenty of car hire companies from which you can choose your ideal hire car. Manchester Airport has offices for Green Motion, Europcar, Easirent, Enterprise, Sixt, Dollar, and Budget. The car hire offices are near the baggage reclaim area in the arrivals terminal. As their opening hours may vary, we recommend getting in touch with them once you have made your booking.
- While driving in the United Kingdom, you must follow all the national laws when behind the wheel of your hire car in Barrow-in-Furness. For example, you must drive on the left side of the road, and you cannot turn left at a red light. The only time you can turn left at a traffic light is when the light for traffic going straight is green or if there is a separate light for left turns. Vehicles already on a roundabout have priority over those waiting to merge. As a general rule, traffic coming from the right has priority over that coming from the left or waiting.
- As Barrow-in-Furness is in the United Kingdom and on the west coast of England, it regularly receives rain and wind throughout the year. For this reason, you may have reduced visibility, and the other drivers and pedestrians may also have it. We recommend that you try to avoid driving in the town centre during rush hour, typically around 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., when traffic is the most congested.
- Book your rental car in Barrow-in-Furness at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Compact rental cars in Barrow-in-Furness are around 48% cheaper than other car types, on average

Pros:
The staff picked us up at the Barrow train station and were exceptionally helpful and friendly. One person even guided us to our hotel as it was on his way home! Very over and above helpfulness.Cons:
We had booked a car large enough for our family and luggage, but the car available was too small. The staff placed us in a larger car that was very nice and worked well for us, but cost 100 GBP more. This was an unexpected expense but we did love the car.2.0 Poor
