Car Hire Sant Cugat del Vallès

Situated just inland from Spain's west coast is the interesting town and municipality of Sant Cugat Del Valles. Located in Catalonia, it is only around three miles from the famous city of Barcelona. Many, therefore, live here and commute to work in the city.

If you are visiting the area, the best way to get around at your own pace is by car hire in Sant Cugat Del Valles. This way you can travel to Barcelona with ease and view the famous architecture here. The city also boasts a renowned shopping area, known as Mecca, where you can pick up everything from designer labels to high-street brands.

If you do choose cheap car hire in Sant Cugat Del Valles, you can also visit the town's serene monastery. It is home to a very pretty Romanesque cloister (partially-covered walkway) and an altar painted by the 16th century Renaissance artist Ayne Bru. Saint Cucuphas, who the town was originally named after, is also said to have died on this spot.

Other interesting buildings that are easily reached by car rental in Sant Cugat Del Valles are the Valles School of Architecture and the Centre d'Alt Rendiment. The latter is a famous sports training ground for high performance cars.

Sant Cugat Del Valles is also good for those with a bit of cash to splash with its pedestrianised shopping area.

The town is well-connected with a train station and a subway linking to Barcelona, Terrassa and Sabadell.
