Frequently asked questions

Can I rent a car from Gatwick Airport (LGW)?
You can, and there's plenty of choice. After you touch down and collect your bags, just walk to the rental car centre in the arrivals hall. Here you can arrange a booking with fantastic companies like Alamo, Sixt and Avis. If you're after more options, see what's available with Europcar and Enterprise.
What happens if I need to cancel my Lewes car reservation?
Cancelling a prepaid reservation with six hours notice should allow for a complete refund. But this is not always guaranteed. It's worth reading through your booking details and cancellation policy. Still stuck for answers? Jump onto our Customer Service Portal.
What types of cars can I rent in Lewes?
Busy city streets and narrow parking spots are no issue for an economy car — the most sought-after type of rental in Lewes. Take the wheel of one of these and drive around traffic easily. Reliable, affordable and with terrific mileage, these small cars pack plenty of punch. But Lewes can be explored in almost any sort of rental you like. Compact, full-size and premium vehicles are among your options.
Where can I go on a road trip from Lewes?
Lewes is full of fun adventures, but don't limit yourself to one place. Rent some wheels and take to the road to see what's in the wider region. Here are some great options we've come up with:

  • London is around 72 kilometres from Lewes. Top-rated attractions like Big Ben should be at the top of your list here.
  • Roughly 129 kilometres away, Oxford is also popular with travellers. Make sure you experience Christ Church College while you're here. It's one of the reasons people love staying a while in this city.
  • Spend time in the great outdoors and appreciate the serenity at Sherwood Forest Country Park. You'll find it roughly 274 kilometres from Lewes.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Lewes with Expedia?
Expedia makes it a cinch to compare rates, offers and rental providers, and to check customer ratings. Combine your Lewes car rental with flight or hotel bookings and you'll save even more.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Lewes?
Drivers aged 21 and above can get on the road in Lewes in a rental vehicle. If you're a young driver, a daily surcharge will apply. You'll usually have fewer car categories to select from, such as economy and mid-size, and may also have to buy inclusive insurance. Always enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to learn if any restrictions or surcharges apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Lewes?
A valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. Don't want to take out the company's insurance plan? In that case, you may also require proof of other coverage. Requirements can differ between suppliers, so be sure to read through your policy.
What side of the road do you drive on in Lewes?
People in Lewes drive on the left-hand side, and the driver's seat and some controls are on the opposite side to cars in the U.S. Take some time getting comfortable with your new ride before getting on the road.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Lewes?
Yes, so you won't need to rebook a rental vehicle in the middle of your holiday. Head to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip details and reserve a ride that's all yours for the duration of your getaway.
Where can I find a Lewes car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the rental companies that operate in Lewes. They often have different age policies. If you've found a supplier that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, take note that extra fees may apply. Conduct some research into any extra charges before picking up the keys to your vehicle.
