How old do you have to be to rent a car in Southwold?

What side of the road do you drive on in Southwold?
In Southwold, motorists drive on the left-hand side of the road. This can be daunting enough, but the driver’s seat and some controls are also on the other side to what you’re used to. To stay safe, take things slow to begin with and leave yourself extra time to arrive at your destination.
