Hertz Car Rental in Exeter
The old county town of Devon stands on a hill to the east of the River Exe. You’ll find it about ten miles inland from the river’s mouth at Exmouth. By renting a car in Exeter you’ll be tempted to pop down to the seaside resorts nearby - they’re among Britain’s most popular summer destinations, with Sidmouth and Torquay being two of the best. But don’t neglect the rest of the area around Exeter. To the west are the wooded Haldon Hills and the high wilderness of Dartmoor, while to the north and east are classic rolling hills dotted with exposed red soil and pretty thatched cottages.
Explore the south east corner of Devon when you rent a car in Exeter, with its beaches, delightful countryside and old market towns, or you can concentrate on the city itself. You’ll soon find that the number one sight - the grand gothic cathedral - stands at the heart of Exeter, on a hill overlooking the river. There are plenty of other historic buildings around the centre too including a Roman underground tunnel network, crumbling city walls, and the remains of a distinctive red stone castle. Look out too for the old river waterfront with restored nautical pubs and restaurants in former warehouses.
