Ladysmith Guide

Ladysmith is a small municipality in the KwaZulu-Natal province of South Africa, about 230kms northwest of Durban. Ladysmith has a population of over 225,000 residents, and contains an interesting history. Numerous battles and sieges of the Boer War occurred in Ladysmith, which are displayed in memorials and museums throughout the town. Getting to these can be achieved by car hire in Ladysmith.

From Durban, Ladysmith can be reached through the rail lines or by road. Driving to Ladysmith from Durban will take between two and three hours, and is linked via the N3 the N11 motorways. A railway system between Durban and the Orange Free State passes through Ladysmith Station. The Ladysmith Airport is situated to the southwest of the town.

There isn't a wide selection in regards to accommodation, but the few lodgings available do offer comfortable facilities in a friendly atmosphere. With most visitors to Ladysmith staying only one or two nights, the Bullers Rest Lodge and the Royal Hotel are more than efficient places for travellers to rejuvenate. Car rental in Ladysmith is on hand for those tourists who travelled by rail.

There are several fascinating war memorials in the town of Ladysmith, which are its main tourist attractions. These include the Siege Museum, Spion Kop Battlefield Memorials, Platrand Memorials, and Burgher Memorial. The Sufi Mosque is also a popular landmark in Ladysmith.

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is Carrentals.co.uk the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

 What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

 Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

 What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

 How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).
