With some terrific day trip options in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to experience everything that Northam, 25 miles away, has to offer. Among your first stops here should be Bernard Park, Northam Golf Club and Morby Cottage. York is another wonderful option. It’s 40 miles away and boasts tons of awesome things to see and do. Penny Farthing Sweets, York Catholic Church and York Motor Museum are only the start.
