Useful Info

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.

I rented a car for my daughter’s birthday party to transport kids and I showed up to get the car and they didn’t have any 7 passenger vehicles left “they overbooked”. So my daughter couldn’t have her party. I had no one to help me. I wasted hundreds of dollars and my daughter’s birthday was ruined. I am still beside myselfReviewed 28 Jun 2026

I felt like the woman who helped did ner best, even upgraded me, but then the car I was upgraded to was too large and she very sweetly got me the car I had planned. The biggest problem was logistics at SAN and the online arrangements. How to navigate the site around the pick up.Reviewed 24 Jun 2026
