We aim to find you the cheapest available deals online, so we compare quotes from over fifty leading rental companies such as Europcar, Thrifty and Sixt to ensure we do.

Explore Dun Laoghaire

The harbour is the main attraction here in Dan Laoghaire and is the focal point of its many leisure activities. At the seaside you can stroll along the shore, swim, sail, fish, windsurf, scuba-dive or enjoy the high speed exhilaration of the exciting SeaThrill rides around the bays.

A walk around the town is the best way to discover some of Dun Laoghaire’s sites. The Town Hall exhibits beautiful Venetian-style architecture, especially its colourful stonework, large arched windows and circular balconies. For many generations Adelaide House has always been occupied, and interestingly, it is the only house in Dun Laoghaire with two doors at the front of the property. The National Maritime Museum, celebrating Ireland’s maritime tradition, is also well worth a visit.

Dun Laoghaire boasts a wide variety of restaurants to suit everyone’s palate and budget, as well as cinemas, theatres, nightclubs and pubs playing traditional ‘diddle aye’ music. Visit Smyths Pub, which not only retains an ‘old world’ atmosphere, but is legendary.

Daytrips out of town allow you to savour the pleasures of the countryside. Nearby are several quality golf courses for you to practice your swing, while there are countless footpaths to explore in the county’s hills. One such path is the famous Wicklow Way, which takes you through South County Dublin and on into County Wicklow, which is a walker’s paradise.

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is Carrentals.co.uk the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).

When will I get a confirmation of my booking?

Most reservations will receive confirmation within minutes after payment takes place. We recommend contacting our Booking Department for last minute reservations (pick-up within 48 hours).
