Slough may seem an unlikely place to visit, but hiring a car really brings the town into its own. With a location just east of the M25 and the M4 running parallel, you can commute to London, or be in Windsor in minutes, but Slough does also have its own merits. The town was recently popularised in ‘The Office', set in the renowned Slough Trading Estate – the town's major employer.
For the international commuter, Heathrow Airport is only minutes away, or you can set off exploring the Berkshire region from an affordable base. Business users also often prefer Slough as a pickup location for hire cars.
If you're here on business, chances are that you'll be heading for Slough Trading Estate, which is a short drive from the town centre on the A4. For a break from the office, the Queensmere Shopping centre is always popular.
Thames Valley University has a campus here, making student car hire from Slough a great option; car rental is also recommended if you're just visiting and want to explore both Berkshire and London. Windsor Castle and Windsor Great Park are 15 minutes away via the A332. Race fans should also take note that you can be at Ascot very efficiently using the same road.
