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. CCTV cameras are constantly operational in Bournemouth, so be sure to observe the local speed limits and road signs to avoid fines or accidents.

The car was great and the Enterprise staff were great. A consistent problem is the lack of staffing. There are 2-3 people that are doing EVERYTHING and they are doing it well, but wait times are much longer than they should be. Corporate properly staffing the office would solve this issue.Reviewed 5 Dec 2025

It would have been nice to know that I needed a credit card to rent the larger van. I ended up with a smaller van in the end. I was a bit miffed that no one had informed me before I arrived to pick it up. Otherwise the service was very good.Reviewed 2 Dec 2025

I was very disappointed with my rental. I contacted my local enterprise office four times about the availability of a luxury suv for our trip. Each time I was asked to trust the process but sadly it was a snow job. At pickup time there were no luxury SUV’s available. I was given an uncomfortable GMC I did not want. They acted as if this was okay, even normal. Well it sucked. Enterprise, you can do better.Reviewed 1 Dec 2025
