Car rental in
Stansted

Our car hire branch at London Stansted Airport provides easy access to the surrounding area of Stansted and London. Stansted Airport is in north west Essex and 2 miles from the small village of Stansted Mountfitchet. The village is quaint with old red brick and half timbered buildings and some historical ruins. London is 35 miles south of the airport and the drive plus capital city offers the very best of the UK on many fronts. For more on what to experience in London, have a look at our London City page. The M11 motorway links Stansted with London in the south and Cambridge in the north. On the road north to Cambridge is the Duxford Imperial War Air Museum (and show around May annually) which is the UK's best preserved second world war air field with impressive exhibits of old and more modern aircraft. Also in Cambridgeshire is the town of Newmarket which is home to the famous racecourse. There are many classic National Trust properties which are on the drive from Stansted to London and Cambridge, such as the working estate of Wimpole complete with rare farm yard breeds and a very good cafe with fresh local produce and the ancient royal hunting forest of Hatfield Forest which is an oasis of natural tranquility next to the busy motorway.
