Car Hire Totnes and Car Rental in Totnes
Car hire and Rentals from Chief Rentals, the leading South Devon Car Hire company
Totnes is a thriving community in the heart of the south Hams and forms the administrative and governing centre for the area. It is a different town, one of the main reasons for Time Magazine declaring Totnes the capital of new age chic. Along with other accolades, Totnes is at the forefront of the ‘new age’ lifestyle where the arts dominate, a bit like Byron Bay in Australia. As such, this is an artists, antique enthusiasts and musicians mecca with a twice weekly market selling a plethora of interesting artefacts, books with an emphasis on hand made or cottage produced products. There is also an abundance of galleries, shops and associated facilities for the artisitic types. This is of course helped by the nearby presence of Dartington Hall with its own College of Arts meaning that there is a steady demand for the products and supply of visitors.
Totnes is not just about the arts, the beautiful River Dart runs through providing spectacular scenery for all visitors. As with many small South Devon towns, Totnes is largely dependent upon tourism and agriculture for its incomes but it does have its own legal currency, the Totnes Pound. This is definitely one town that all visitors to Devon should visit though, it does have a distinctive feel and atmosphere that is not widely seen in other English towns and the quality of the accommodation and restaurants is outstanding. In 2008, British Airways declared Totnes as one of the top 10 worlds funkiest towns and that accolade is entirely appropriate.
