Spain's roads are generally good and on par with those in the UK, and while the main routes near cities are busy, there are miles of pleasant driving on account of the country's size. You can drive all the way along the Mediterranean coast and into the Picos de Europa, for example. Avoid city driving on account of confusing one-way streets, expensive parking and impatient local drivers.
There's a lot to see with car rental in Spain, wherever you're based. If you're in Madrid, Toledo is an easy drive south. There are nice beach resorts right across the Costa del Sol and within reach of Barcelona, while those based in Bilbao or San Sebastian can head over to France. Cordoba and Seville both have fantastic sights and are near to the famed Ronda Valley.
The main tourist season in Spain is May to September. It's hottest in the south (along the Costa del Sol) in July and August, along with in Madrid and the Canary Islands. This time is when Spain also sees its most tourists and driving requires more patience. Expect average temperatures in the high 20s (°C) in summer and even in the 20s during the Canaries winter.
