Europe is a continent that is packed full of historic buildings, lively cities, quaint villages, amazing countryside and fantastic beaches; in fact there isn’t allot that Europe doesn’t have! It’s a place that will cater to anyone holiday requirements and the bonus is you don’t have to travel very far.

With an Ireland car hire you can discover the natural beauty of the Emerald Isle. The West Coast is the most picturesque coastline that Ireland has to offer.  Stop and simply enjoy the amazing scenery that can be found in County Clare. The Cliffs of Moher give you a fantastic view out to sea and you can explore the hills of the Burren.  Visit the town of Adare in Limerick, classed as one of Ireland’s postcard towns due to his tidy buildings and streets. The town also has an Abbey and a Castle you can visit. 

The region of Andalucía provides Spain’s with its most popular coastline and beach resorts.  Hire a car in Malaga and you can hop from beach to beach.  The Costa del Sol has the warm inviting Mediterranean waters that entice travellers all year round and the Costa de la Luz provides much quieter beaches that stretch for miles and feature sand dunes plus pine woods.  One thing you must try while visiting the area is the UNESCO World Heritage Mediterranean Diet. Not many places can claim that their food is a world heritage!

Last stop on our search for Europe’s finest and most enjoyable coastline’s is the home to leaning towers and pizza; Italy. To pick just one part of fabulous coastline is tricky with Italy as all sides have something to offer for the roving tourist.  That being said with a car hire in Italy we opt for the Amalfi Coast. Drive along the mountain roads that give you breath-taking views across the waters. Along the way you will come across hidden coves where you can lap up the beautiful weather. Open your window whilst driving and enjoy the sweet smell of the freshly growing fruit mixed in with the ocean air; doesn’t it just sound like a dream or scene from a Hollywood movie?

Europe is right on our doorstep and with the English Summer not being known for its reliable temperatures why don’t you treat yourself and start planning your European adventure right now!
