Services
Established in 2009 Carhire Hebrides is a family run business set up by John and Alison Cunningham. Having run a successful 5* guest house for several years, they wanted to create a car hire business with the same ethos and principles of high quality and memorable service to customers. Beginning with 6 cars the business proved to be successful with all the cars purchased new.
Having a clear out? Trip to the mainland? Developed in 2013, Van Hire Hebrides is the spin-off company from Car Hire Hebrides offering customers even more choice when it comes to vehicle hire. Van Hire Hebrides is based at Stornoway Ferry Terminal. Our town centre location provides a convenient and efficient pick-up and drop-off service for all our customers.
Having been the sole car hire provider at Stornoway Airport since 2011, Car Hire Hebrides are now well established and experienced in providing exceptional service to Stornoway Airport's passengers. Our friendly staff will meet you at our rental desk, which is located inside the airport terminal beside the exit.
Opened in Spring 2017, this branch not only services ferry passengers arriving from Ullapool on the MV Loch Seaforth, but has also proven to be very convenient for anyone who wants to pick up their car or van in Stornoway. Our office is based inside the unique Stornoway Ferry Terminal building, with our exclusive car park nearby.
With so many breath-taking landscapes and beaches to explore, the best way to make the most of your time on Harris is to travel between all of these wonderful sights by car. Our pickup location is beside the Essence of Harris shop in the heart of Tarbert, which is very close to the Ferry Terminal, the new Marina, and the local hotels - Hotel Hebrides and Harris Hotel.

If you are on a cruise ship and want to hire a car they insist on a two day minimum hire - basically they double the price!! Either side of a cruise ship visit you can hire for one day at half the cost. This is taking the mick - I understand that they can charge more but double is ridiculous. We used Mackinnons car hire. Very friendly and didn't increase the price. Be warned!!

You might think that all you need from a car hire company is a clean, new car full of fuel and waiting for you when you arrive. That's the basics. What separates this company out from all the others is how they look after you if things don't go according to plan. We scratched their car, but they've treated us with the utmost respect and courtesy despite that. There are plenty of stories out there about unscrupulous hire companies exploiting weary travellers. Car Hire Hebrides are not one of those. Hire from them every time.

I rented with Car Hire Hebrides in Sept. 2019 to see the Isles of Lewis & Harris. You really need a car to see the best remote places. I did just fine driving in Scotland ... until a woman hit the car while it was parked, right before I was to drop it at the airport! Luckily, there were witnesses. Car Hire Hebrides (thank you, Hamish!) was extremely attentive and professional. They had to withhold the insurance deductible initially, but refunded it after investigating & talking with the witnesses. This really showed integrity, professionalism, and courteous, honest business practices. They went

I could not wish for better. Booking out-of-hours via Facebook was easy, with accurate helpful descriptions of vehicles available. At Stornoway Airport all went impressively efficiently and everyone was helpful and a pleasure to deal with. The Toyota Yaris Hybrid coped comfortably and easily taking 3 or 4 adults exploring 282 miles around some wild and hilly parts of Harris and Lewis. Car Hire Hebrides was excellent - thank you -we'll be back!
