Got Easter plans? Travel your way this bank holiday!

Easter is one of those times of year when everyone seems to have something planned. For some people it’s a long-awaited family visit, for others it’s a few days away somewhere new, and for plenty of us, it’s simply making the most of the bank holiday weekend. Whatever you’ve got in mind, the roads always get a little busier around Easter as people start travelling across the country.

That’s where our daily hire service comes in. Whether you’re heading away for a quiet couple of days, visiting family, or travelling with a group, hiring the right vehicle for the trip means you’re not trying to make one car work for every situation.

Travelling together this Easter

Easter bank holiday often means getting the whole family together, and sometimes that means coordinating travel for more people than usual. Whether you’re planning a family gathering, a group day out, or even an airport run for a holiday, travelling together can make things much simpler (and more fun).

People carriers and minibuses are a great option when you need extra seats without splitting everyone into multiple cars. It keeps the journey far more relaxed, especially on longer drives, and it means nobody has to worry about keeping track of several vehicles along the way.

They’re also ideal when you’ve got plenty to bring with you. Suitcases, overnight bags, Easter treats, and everything else that seems to come along for the ride all need space somewhere. At Intack Self Drive, we have a range of larger vehicles available depending on the size of your group. That includes 5–6 seat crew vans, 9 seater minibuses, and even 12 or 17 seater minibuses for bigger family gatherings or group trips – as long as the driver passed their driving test before 1st January 1997 and holds a full UK licence with D1 entitlement.

A quiet Easter escape for two

Not everyone wants a packed Easter weekend full of plans and busy attractions. If you’re planning a quieter bank holiday this year, a couple of days away together can be exactly what you need. The long weekend is the perfect excuse to slow things down, get out of your usual routine and spend some time somewhere a little more peaceful.

Maybe you’ve got a countryside stay booked, a coastal town in mind, or you’re planning a relaxed drive somewhere new for the day. Either way, the journey is part of the break, so it helps to have a car that makes the drive feel easy from the start.

For a weekend away for two, a smaller car makes the most sense. It’s comfortable for longer drives, easy to park when you arrive somewhere busy, and perfect for those scenic routes where you might want to stop off along the way. Something like a Fiat 500 or Ford Fiesta gives you everything you need for a laid-back Easter escape without feeling oversized for a simple weekend trip. You’ve got space for bags, room to enjoy the drive, and the freedom to take things at your own pace.

We’re open across Easter bank holiday weekend

Whether you’ve already got your Easter plans booked in, you’re still toying with the idea of getting away, or something comes together at the very last minute, the last thing you want is to be held back because nowhere’s open when you need a vehicle. That’s exactly why we stay open right through the Easter bank holiday weekend.

So if you need a car for a couple of days away, a van to get something sorted, or a minibus for a group trip, you can get it when you want it, not just when it happens to suit the calendar. While plenty of places shut up for the long weekend, we’re here ready and waiting, so you can make plans, change plans, or book something last-minute without the usual bank holiday hassle.

Stress-free travel over Easter

The Easter weekend should feel like a break, not a logistical headache. At Intack Self Drive, we’ve got hundreds of vehicles available for daily hire, so you’re not stuck trying to make one car work for every situation.

And if your plans aren’t completely set in stone just yet, you’ve got that extra flexibility too. Alongside our daily hire options, we also offer flexi hire across our vehicles, giving you the freedom to keep your vehicle for longer without worrying about strict return dates.

So whether everything’s already booked in, you’re still thinking about a last-minute getaway, or the plans come together a little closer to the weekend, you can sort the vehicle you need and get on the road without any unnecessary stress. If you’d like to find out more about the vehicles available or need a bit of advice before booking, just give us a call on 01254 57811, and our team will be happy to help.
