Van Hire Paisley

Paisley is situated on the northern edge of Gleniffer Braes on the banks of the river Cartnear and conveniently 8 miles from Glasgow and its international airport. Paisley was founded in the 12th –century as a monastic settlement around an Abbey that rapidly expanded into a town. Explore all Paisley has to offer from the convenience of a van hire from Switch.

As you plan your holiday there are many sights you should consider. And we suggest you start your van hire tour at the Abbey the town was founded around. It was built in 1163 as a Cluniac Monastery. Although the outside may not be considered elaborate, the inside is elaborately decorated. It retains its medieval nave and the choir was been painstakingly renovated during the 18th-century and is illuminated by 19th-century jewel-coloured stained glass in a variety of styles.

From the comfort of your van hire you should continue on to take in the beautiful architecture heritage of Paisley and the Paisley Town Hall. The building is a fine example of Victorian architecture built in Renaissance style.

From the town hall, you will take your van hire down to the Civic Museum and Art Gallery. The museum first opened in 1871 with a library being added in 1882. Several extensions have been added over the years. One of the most popular parts of the museum exhibits the development and growth of the Paisley teardrop pattern that is still popular in designs from fashion to décor and offers the finest collection of Paisley shawls in existence.

Coats Memorial is one of the finest churches in Europe. The beauty of the 100 year old Gothic design Baptist Cathedral speaks its own warm message of welcome. Intricate wood carvings, a vaulted roof, marble, alabaster and mosaics abound.

Paisley is a town of rich history and abundant beauty and a picture perfect location for a holiday. Acquiring your van hire from Switch will ensure you experience Paisley in comfort and ease.
