KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Maidstone

  • Choose the option to hire a car in Maidstone and give yourself the chance to witness the town and all surrounding areas at your ease and flexibility. Heard about the renowned Canterbury Cathedral, but not had the chance to visit? Now is your chance, with car hire in Maidstone. Driving to the famous town, 26 miles away, will take just under 40min. If you want to stay closer to Maidstone, Leeds Castle, known as ‘the loveliest castle in the world’ and just 5 miles away, is an 11min drive.
  • Located in Kent, the closest airport is Heathrow at 63 miles away and takes around 1h 15min to get to. Heathrow Airport has an extensive car rental centre, which is home to companies including Europcar, Hertz, Avis and Budget, enabling an array of options to suit a range of budgets. Some of the car hire companies are open 24/7 and most providers in the car hire centre can conveniently be accessed at all times. There is a free airport shuttle bus that expediently transports passengers from Terminals 2, 3 and 4 and runs every day at 10-minute intervals.
  • The main motorways near Maidstone are the M20 and M2. The M20 connects you to the South, towards Dover and Folkestone, and takes you North towards another major road, the M25, which circles the UK’s capital, London, and can connect you to other routes towards the North of the UK. The M2 will guide you to the East, towards Sittingbourne, which has a selection of museums and notable locations, and the Isle of Sheppey, known as Kent’s ‘Treasure Island’. Motorways can become congested with traffic during rush hour, which is normally between 7:00 to 9:00 and 17:00 to 19:00, however we would advise you to tune into the traffic news to follow the latest updates on the day.
  • You can drive around Maidstone town, but the high street in the town centre is a pedestrian zone, which means that there is restricted access for vehicles except taxis and bicycles. Only taxis and bicycles can access the High Street from Pudding Lane and King Street, and only buses can access the High Street from Mill Street, King Street, Pudding Lane and Fairmeadow. The UK can have extremely cold weather conditions if you are travelling from October to February and roads could be icy, so please take extra care when travelling in Maidstone in icy conditions.

The service was excellent. Super helpful desk staff and the car was just what I needed - a nippy little run around. While I was in town visiting my family. Return was also really easy with the team being friendly and welcoming. The car was actually a higher spec than I was expecting which was a real bonus. Literally the only thing i could say about improvements was the space at the Enterprise premises. It was a bit congested. But other than that, great service all round.
