Given the stresses of everyday life and the roads getting busier, now is a really good time to be driving an automatic car.
You may be a complete beginner, or someone who has had a go at manual and found it wasn’t the right fit. Whatever stage you’re at, we can cater for you, and promise you a fantastic learning experience.
How many of your friends have told you about stalling, and how they hated it? In an automatic car you cannot stall, as there is no clutch, so when you come off the brake and press the accelerator, you’re off with no delay.
Piece of cake in an automatic car, as soon as you move your foot from the brake to the gas, the car will move, no more constant clutch movement, putting on the handbrake and finding the biting point, you just calmly move your feet from one pedal to the other. On top of that – no rolling backwards!
{location} has its share of busy roads, junctions, roundabouts, traffic lights and built-up areas, where you will be in traffic quite often during your driving lessons, especially in rush hour. In an automatic car it’s simple, we cannot make the traffic disappear, but you can control the car more easily, less pollution, and easier on your feet and legs, as no constant clutch control.
At Lendrums we understand the financial pressure on students, so we offer discounts on driving lessons and block bookings, to help you budget more easily, and we are one of the few driving schools covering Denmead that offer driving lesson discounts. We cover the full Denmead area, and can pick up and return to college/university, so if you have study gaps in the day, or once you’re a bit more experienced, we can pick you up from home and finish at the college/university – or the other way round, college/university to home.
As an NHS professional, we know just how much pressure you’re under, and would like to show our appreciation for your hard work, keeping people safe and helping people recover, therefore we offer a discount for NHS driving lessons, similar to the students, as a way of showing our appreciation.
All our customers get FREE access to our online theory and hazard perception training, to help you pass your theory test easily.
Our training platform includes the full range of topics tested in your theory exam, from hazard perception clips, road signs, and the Highway Code, so you can study at your own pace, whenever suits you. Alongside the practical driving lessons you’ll be having with your instructor in {location}, this sets you up for passing both parts of your test first time.
A lot of our learners find that doing the theory training in parallel with their driving lessons helps the two sides of learning to drive come together, since the rules you’re learning on paper are the same ones you’re applying behind the wheel.
If you are a student at college or university, we can collect you during study breaks, returning you to your studies or to home after your lesson, plus we can pick you up from home and drop you at college or university, once you have a bit of experience on busier roads. Some of the colleges and universities we cover:
Learning to drive is an exciting milestone, and choosing the right location for your lessons can make all the difference. Denmead, a charming village on the outskirts of Portsmouth, offers an ideal mix of quiet residential streets and more challenging routes, making it a fantastic place for learner drivers to build confidence. With experienced local instructors who understand the area’s unique road layouts, you can progress from the basics to more advanced driving skills at a comfortable pace.
As your confidence grows, you’ll need to tackle the busier roads connecting Denmead to Portsmouth. This bustling port city is known for its complex roundabout systems, including multi-lane roundabouts that can intimidate even seasoned drivers. Fortunately, practising in Denmead first allows learners to master fundamental skills before transitioning to Portsmouth’s more demanding traffic conditions, ensuring a smoother and less stressful learning curve.
One of the benefits of learning to drive in this area is the opportunity to familiarise yourself with routes to popular destinations. Portsmouth boasts attractions such as the Spinnaker Tower, Historic Dockyard, and Southsea seafront, all accessible via roads you’ll practise during lessons.
Once you’ve passed your test, Portsmouth’s vibrant nightlife and entertainment scene await. From restaurants to bars and live music venues, having your licence opens up countless possibilities for socialising and exploration throughout the region.
Everyone learns at a different pace, but typically it takes around 45 hours of lessons, alongside plenty of practice, to reach test standard.
