Waterford City Car Hire

Waterford Coolgower is located on the southeastern edge of Waterford city and offers a car rental provider with a convenient location near N25. This area is a good option for travelers arriving from the east who want to avoid driving through the city center. Rosslare Europort is 60 km away and can be reached in less than an hour.

Coolgower borders Waterford Harbour and is close to Cheekpoint, a charming fishing village 10 km to the northeast at the mouth of the River Suir. Dunmore East, one of Ireland's most beautiful coastal towns with red cliffs and white cottages, is 16 km to the south via R684. Drive to Dunmore East for one of Ireland's best fish and chips experiences at the harbor – a 20-minute drive south.

Take R684 along the coast instead of N25 for a more scenic drive toward Tramore and further west. Check the rental provider's opening hours in advance, as the office may have limited hours compared to the city center. How far is it from Waterford Coolgower to Dunmore East?
