Crawley is a West Sussex town which has just under 100,000 inhabitants and where we offer a great choice of vehicles for Car Hire Crawley.

Crawley is conveniently located close to one of Britain’s biggest airport, London Gatwick, where it is also possible to pick up Rhino hire cars Gatwick. Driving on the London Road (A23) it only takes 13 minutes to get from Gatwick airport to Crawley. Crawley is also close to the M23 motorway which goes north towards Redhill where it joins the M25 London Orbital and south towards Haywards Heath where it joins the A272 road.

Gatwick International Airport first opened in the 1940s and its position next to Crawley inspired a massive growth in the town. Crawley was originally a small market town in the 13th century before becoming one of the new towns to which the British government wanted to locate more people after the Second World War. This was set out in the New Towns Act of 1946 which was followed by work to expand Crawley.

Having a car rental in Crawley is a very good idea. There is not that much to see and do in the town itself, but it is within east reach of the lovely towns of Chichester and Brighton.
Brighton is an old English seaside resort which has two piers (though one of them may soon collapse; it was bombed in the war and more recently caught fire) and a number of attractions for holiday makers. Taking a day trip to the student town of Brighton is well advised as there is an eclectic mix of shops, bars, restaurants and nightclubs in this colourful and liberal location.
In the ancient Roman settlement of Chichester there is also quite a bit to keep sightseers entertained with many wonderful old buildings, not least the impressive Chichester cathedral.

The Brighton train line was the first to serve Crawley with the Three Bridges railway station becoming its main station. Brighton is a great drive with Car HIre Crawley as well.
