Where to Begin Your Irish Road Trip
See the green land of Ireland with a campervan hire- here are some likely starting points:
Dublin
Ireland's capital and biggest city, Dublin is where ferries from the UK land and is central, making it a convenient location to pick up your campervan. Dubliners are friendly and have great accents- so spend some time in this rapidly growing and diversifying city.
Belfast
Belfast is in the UK's Northern Ireland, in the province of Ulster. If it's Northern Ireland you want to see, this is the place to pick up your motorhome. Lough Neagh, the largest lake in the British isles, is not far from Belfast.
Castlebar
Castlebar is on Ireland's west coast, so start here to see some of the stunningly wild coastline. Beautiful panoramas and charming towns will make a west coast trip a holiday to remember.
Shannon
Located on the Shanon estuary, the large estuary at the mouth of the Shannon River, Shannon is a convenient place to see the south of Ireland. One of the most popular natural attractions in the area or the Cliffs of Moher north of Shannon.
Cork
Cork is located in the southeast of Ireland- why not try a road trip from here north to Dublin or Belfast and see some of the country? If you are interested in the Titanic, call into Cobh on Cork Harbour- it was the great ship's last port of call and has many memorials.
Galway
Galway is also on the west coast and not far from the amazing cliffs of Moher. Explore the many lakes and beaches in the surrounding area with a pick-up from here.

I have been General Manager of Motorhome Republic, the operators of this website, for 4 years and with the company for 6 years starting as a Sales / Account Manager. Previous roles have included account manager and software architect for a web design firm, advertising sales across multiple media and television production. I’ve been lucky enough to go Motorhoming several times in Canada, USA and New Zealand so far and grew up going on caravanning holidays with Mum and Dad. The value and freedom Motorhoming offers are its two main drawcards for me. That and the envy on the other campers’ faces when you pull into a State Park campground with no hook ups in a 31’ Class C with double slide outs, on board generator, side awning, exterior entertainment unit and smoker unit for a 10kg salmon caught earlier that day.
I have been in the Motorhome industry for the best part of 6 years and with Motorhomes Republic for the last 18 months. I previously worked for the largest Motorhome rental company in the world as the New Zealand Sales Account Manager. I’ve traveled the length and width of New Zealand in many different categories of Motorhomes, in fact I don’t think there is a main state highway I haven’t driven. The love I have for Motorhomes is one of freedom and flexibility, doing what I want when I want. If I have a hankering for a cup of coffee in a beautiful scenic spot simply stop boil and enjoy….
