Order a Holyhead Car Rental and Book your Cardiff Anglesey Flight Ticket

Choosing a Holyhead car rental may be a good move if you want your Anglesey island vacation to get off to a good start. It may be of course that you are coming to the island on business using the Anglesey Cardiff flight, in which case Holyhead car hire is very convenient. And you may also be arriving on the Dublin Holyhead ferry or the train from London Euston and need a car to connect the missing link in your travel plan.

Don’t leave booking your Holyhead car hire until the last moment, whichever way you plan to get to the island, by train, ferry, coach or flight from Cardiff. The service for car rentals in Holyhead has increased with the recent growth and investment around the Port of Holyhead and with the opening of Anglesey Airport at RAF Valley, providing the north south Wales air link.

The main car hire providers in and around Holyhead are branches of national car rental companies and so you know that there will be possibilities for one way car hire, where you leave the car at the onward destination. All three of the main Holyhead car rental providers offer a wide range of vehicles to chose from, whether you want a small Fiesta model, a mid-range Mondeo, a Mercedes salon, or perhaps a 7 seater people carrier.

Whilst it cannot be guaranteed by the car hire firm, you may be able to book an automatic drive vehicle, as well as have a choice between unleaded petrol and diesel, so it’s best to book early to be assured. You will find that Holyhead car rental firms also provide a minibus service for between 12 and 17 passengers, while the minimum hiring period offered by all three firms near Holyhead Port is one day.

One of the car hire firms, Hertz, has a compound next to Holyhead Port, near the road leading to the Fishing harbour, while the others, Quayside Garage and Practical Car and Van Rental, are based at Gaerwen and Valley respectively. All three will arrange a special meet and greet service for air passengers arriving at Anglesey Airport at RAF Valley, where your car will have a full tank of fuel and paperwork will be completed.

You may also find that your Holyhead car rental firm may give you an option to top up the daily charge with an extra premium which then waives the excess in the event of an accident. Depending on the insurance policy and size of vehicle, the excess you may have to pay on your Holyhead car hire following an accident can vary from around 500 up to 600, so it may be a better option to pay a slightly higher daily premium.

What do you need to provide to make sure all the paperwork is straightforward? At a minimum you will need proof that you are legally entitled to drive a vehicle, so make sure you have your driving licence. Some of the car hire firms may also ask for an utility bill, for proof of address. Payment will usually be by credit or debit card.

It is best to contact these companies between 9 and 5 Monday to Friday for bookings, as they may not be available on Sundays. To make the most of your time on Anglesey, whether on business or holiday, the best option is to book your Holyhead car rental in good time, meaning it’s one less thing to worry about when you arrive on the island.
