Nestled in the Somerset countryside is the town of Taunton, a warm and inviting rural South-West municipality that is famous for its annual flower show and carnival season. Taunton has also made a name for itself for being the retail capital of the county, but with beautiful countryside on its doorstep Taunton has something for everyone. Car hire from Taunton is available at our city centre branch so you can fill your boot with shopping or escape to the country if you prefer.
Hiring a car from Taunton is a great way to discover local attractions such as the impressive Royal Albert Memorial Museum, home to some of the most renowned art, exhibits, and historic collections, making it a fantastic venue for a day trip. Closer to the centre, the Museum of Somerset is based in Taunton Castle and traces back the history of the county to prehistoric times. If you want to head further afield you can use your Taunton car rental to visit Fyne Court, a wild garden complete with a folly and boathouse. A great day out that will keep both young and old entertained.
