Car Hire Dorset

The county of Dorset is situated in the South West of England and is also sometimes called Dorsetshire, but either way it is a great place to use car hire services from Thrifty Car Rental. Dorset is very popular for its sensational coastline and other land features such as Chesil Beach, Lulworth Cove, and the Isle of Portland.

Dorset is primarily known as a large rural county and as such has less population then other densely populated areas. This also means that there are less attractions and historical features in the area. Dorset is home to the Poole Borough Council Lighthouse arts centre which features many interesting pieces of art and you will also find the Bournemouth Borough’s BIC and Pavilion Theatre. You are sure to find some stellar performances here.

If football is your sport then you will definitely want to take in some League One action and watch the A. F. C. Bournemouth take on some decent teams. Dorset is also home to a small cricket county club and there are several areas you can enjoy various water sports.

You should also use your car hire from Thrifty to visit the beaches that surround the Dorset coastline. The beaches in Dorset are very beautiful and offer crisp mild temperatures for everyone to enjoy. If you are looking to visit a castle there are a few in the area including: Abbotsbury Castle, Corfe Castle, Lulworth Castle, Maiden Castle, and Portland Castle.

One beach that you will most likely want to visit is the Weymouth Beach which is nestled near the quaint town of Weymouth and offers a great place to enjoy sea bathing. Features at Weymouth Beach include soft golden sand and is also the host to several International Volleyball Championships. There is also a small fun fair for the children to enjoy as well as sand sculptures and trampolines. So get inside of your car hire from Thrifty and check out the beautiful county of Dorset.
