Sheffield is one of the best-placed cities in England for reaching the Peak District, with Hathersage, Castleton, Bakewell and Chatsworth all within easy driving distance.
Whether you’re here for the hills, a university visit or meetings around the city and the Advanced Manufacturing Park, our fleet includes compact hatchbacks, estates, people carriers and SUVs.
Sheffield station is a major stop on the Midland Main Line, with East Midlands Railway services to and from London St Pancras, CrossCountry trains linking the South West, Birmingham and the North East, and TransPennine Express and Northern services towards Manchester, Leeds and beyond. The Supertram also stops right outside.
Your Drivalia hire car will be ready at 148 Princess Street, Sheffield S4 7UU. Give our branch a call before your train arrives to book your collection, let us know when you’ll be getting in, and a member of the team will meet you at the station.
You can book your South Yorkshire hire car in minutes on the Drivalia website or in our mobile app. Every vehicle shows its live availability and all-inclusive price, so there are no surprises when you reach the checkout.

From Sheffield Station to the Peak District by Hire Car
Arriving in Sheffield by train and collecting a car close by gives you the freedom to reach places that are difficult to get to by public transport, from remote Peak District villages to business parks on the edge of the city.
Our driver will be waiting at the short-stay pick-up area near Cross Turner Street, just a few minutes’ walk from the main exit. The drive to Princess Street takes up to 10 minutes, and your car will be prepared for you when you arrive.
Add an extra named driver or additional mileage when you book if you’re planning a longer route, such as a tour of the Peaks or onward travel into Yorkshire and the Midlands.
Completing online check-in through Manage My Booking before your trip means your documents are already uploaded, so the handover at the branch takes less time.
For city meetings, family visits or a few days in the hills, book directly with Drivalia for competitive rates and a free station pick-up in Sheffield.
