Top tips for hiring a car from Enterprise Rent-A-Car at Bournemouth Airport

  • When you book Enterprise car hire at Bournemouth Airport, you have the freedom to explore the town and the greater Dorset area independent of public transport. It also gives you the flexibility to choose an affordable vehicle according to your travel budget or a comfortable ride for your entire party. Bournemouth is a coastal resort town with many attractions, including beaches, golf courses and several parks. Hengistbury Head Beach offers seaside fun and spectacular views approximately 5 miles from the town centre, while the expanse of the New Forest National Park lies about 12 miles north along the A338.
  • Bournemouth Airport has a small car hire centre with limited resources, so it makes sense to make the short journey (about 3.5 miles) to the Enterprise location on Charminster Road (near Winton Recreation Ground), where there’s an expanded inventory from which to choose. The minimum age to book an Enterprise car hire at Bournemouth Airport is 21, and the provider levies charges on drivers below 25 years of age. You should also know that the agency rarely lets vehicles to drivers over 65 years old.
  • When you arrive at the Enterprise location, be sure to have your valid driving licence, proof of address and insurance papers handy. If you’re visiting from abroad, your passport with a return ticket, photographic ID and unexpired domestic driving licence are required. In such cases, we always recommend carrying an International Driving Permit, which is universally accepted. At Enterprise, you can use a major credit card for payment, but the agency also accepts bank debit cards as an additional convenience.
  • We recommend you book your Enterprise car hire at Bournemouth Airport in advance to increase the likelihood of getting the best vehicle for your road adventures. The agency’s operating hours are Monday-Friday from 8 am-5 pm; Saturday from 9 am-12 noon; it is closed on Sunday. Professional staff are on hand to assist if you don’t have a reservation. In cases where you need to make a return after regular business hours, just park and lock the vehicle, then drop the keys in the secured box provided.

FAQs about hiring a car from Enterprise Rent-A-Car at Bournemouth Airport

  • What vehicle types are recommended at Enterprise car hire at Bournemouth Airport?

    Selecting a vehicle according to your budget and requirements is always practical. For example, compacts and small economy cars are fuel-efficient, affordable choices for singles and couples looking to keep expenses to a minimum. On the other hand, full-sized saloons and SUVs or passenger vans are more comfortable and offer increased storage capacity when travelling with family or friends. Premium vehicles with a range of deluxe options get our nod when you wish to travel in style.

  • What should I know about driving a Bournemouth Airport Enterprise car hire around town?

    Always drive the vehicle on the left side of the road, and ensure all occupants wear seatbelts before getting on the road.

I wasn't able to rent from them. The website stated I could use a debit card for my deposit but when I got there they told me that I couldn't. I didn't have a credit card with the amount on it that was required for the deposit so I wasn't allowed to rent a car.Reviewed 9 Feb 2026

Did not have a flight so I could not use the debit card at the airport, fine. I called the customer service and asked them were I could rent with just a debit card and they gave me a non-airport location and reserved a car, I'm half way to the rental location in the uber and they tell me they won't rent with a debit card even though their hq said they would. I informed them that I checked on that specifically to ensure they would take it before I showed up. They had no other options for me, no help, no discount on future rentals, nothing. 2nd time enterprise has screwed me previously they rented me a car that didn't exist weeks ahead of time and did not inform me that there was no car until hours before I was to pick it up. I had to leave my own car in Cleveland for a month. These guys are even worse than Avis, if such a thing is possibleReviewed 5 Feb 2026
