Car Rental Coventry

Coventry is a large city in the West Midlands area, which makes it a good idea to have a car rental from Thrifty Car Rental to take you around. St. Michael’s Cathedral is the most well known landmark in Coventry, but you will also want to stop and see Lunt Roman Fort, and there is a number of different museums in town you might want to visit.

The first place to use your car rental to reach is St. Michael’s Cathedral. The cathedral was originally a 14th century building, but was almost completely destroyed during World War II, with only the tower and the outer wall left standing. The new cathedral was built next to the ruins of the old cathedral and contains many interesting designs and sculptures.

Just a four-mile ride in your car rental will take you to Lunt Roman Fort, a partially reconstructed version of the original fort. Inside the fort are a number of buildings, such as a headquarters building, barracks, cavalry training ring and a number of granaries, one of which has been transformed into the Interpretive Centre and Museum of the Roman Army.

A good way to spend a day in Coventry is visiting the many museums in the area. Coventry Transport Museum contains many different varieties of British-made transports, including the famous British jet cars. Then you can take your car rental to the Toy Museum, which has a collection of toys dating from 1740 - 1951, and then another short trip to the Midland Air Museum. Here you will find over 40 aircraft on display, and a gallery narrating the history of air transportation in Coventry. Having a car rental from Thrifty Car Rental makes it easy to fit many different stops in your day without worrying about the time.
