Truro car rentals

A small, compact economy car is ideal for picking your way around the narrow streets of Truro. If you plan on exploring the national parks and Cornish coastline whilst you’re there, a sturdy 4x4 may be better suited, especially in poor weather. When the whole family is coming along for the ride, you might want to opt for a larger saloon for more space and comfort.

The A390, which heads through the centre of Truro, has varying speed limits mostly ranging from 30–40mph. Other main roads in the area include the St. Austell bypass and Tregolls Road, which both have a speed limit of 30mph. Pay particular attention to the speed cameras around the junctions along Tregolls Road. They can be difficult to spot and can easily catch you out during busy periods.

There are twelve car parks in Truro that range from £2–£4 for 2h. Alternatively, you can use one of two Park and Ride services, which cost £2 for the day (£1 on Saturdays) up to 20:30, when all cars must vacate. The Langarth and Tregurra Park sites offer shuttles into the city centre included with your ticket. The journey from Langarth takes around 15min and from Tregurra Park, it’s roughly 5–7min.
