Very respectable car rental conmpany. We arrived on a delayed train into Penrith station and the car was waiting with a valet. We were driving away before the train had even left the station. Same service when returning the car at the train station. The car was essential brand new. Highly recommended for car rental if checking out the Lake District and surrounds.

We hired a car for a week in the lakes, the service we received was superb - we picked up the car upon arrival at Penrith train station and returned the car at the train station as well. I would definitely recommend Eden Garage to people looking to hire a car for going around the lakes. The car was in excellent condition, very clean.
