Self-Drive Supercar Hire in Leicester

The granite uplands of Charnwood Forest offer some of the most dramatic driving in the East Midlands. The B5330 threads past Bradgate Park's ancient deer park before rising towards Beacon Hill — the highest point in Leicestershire at 248 metres — with sweeping views across the county. Light traffic midweek makes this a supercar driver's secret.

England's largest man-made reservoir creates a natural 23-mile circuit on the A606 and connecting lanes — perfect for a full morning's driving. The southern shore between Empingham and Edith Weston offers long straights with the reservoir glittering to your left, while the northern route winds through Oakham and Uppingham with its independent shops and cafés. Allow a full day to do it justice.

Head south on the A6 through rolling Leicestershire countryside to the handsome market town of Market Harborough, then loop north on the A607 towards Melton Mowbray — England's rural food capital and home of the pork pie. The route passes through fox-hunting country with stone-walled fields, quaint villages, and almost no traffic. An ideal route for open-top supercar hire.
