Hiring a car at Chatham

Chatham is on the River Medway in North Kent. Its claim to fame is as the place where Nelson's flagship at the Battle of Trafalgar, HMS Victory, was built. The town was first established as a naval dockyard by Elizabeth I in 1568 and remained so until 1984. Today, the dockyard area has been regenerated and a marina created. Employment in the area is in tourism and service industries, and Vanquis Bank Ltd is one of the town's largest employers. The town centre has also seen much regeneration. There is a new Waterfront Bus Station, a pedestrianised High Street and the Pentagon Shopping Centre, which has 350 parking spaces and is home to 70 different retailers. Chatham is ideally placed for exploring North Kent. Historic Canterbury is only 13 miles away, or you could drive out to Whitstable on the coast and try some of its famous oysters. It really is worth hiring a car if you want to experience all that Kent has to offer, and you won't get a better deal than Enterprise Rent-A-Car can provide. Take a look online for the best deals and remember to book early. Enterprise is half a mile from the town's railway station, on James Street.
