Car Hire - Gatwick to Bath One Way

Does anyone know if there is a company offering one way car hire without extra charges? I worked out it would much easier and not much more cost to hire a car to get me, hubby and three young children back from Gatwick airport to Bath. I looked it up a few weeks ago and thought that National car hire offered one way hire with no extra charge - i was getting quotes at about £60. Now i have just looked up and they, and everyone else i try, are showing £30-£45 extra charges. Has anyone got any tips?

    Hadn't thought of that bit just looked up and would be £150-£170 ish, which is getting a lot more than the original thought of getting the train home, then hiring a car.
  • Try Holiday Autos. I am sure you will have to pay a fee, but if the overall price is reasonable you will not be too bothered.
