McRent is the European-network option for Irish renters who want a modern motorhome, Dublin pickup convenience, and the possibility of a Shannon-side start via Limerick. This guide focuses on route fit, fleet type and the booking checks worth making before you pay.
About McRent Ireland
McRent operates a pan-European motorhome rental network spanning Germany, Austria, the UK, Ireland, Scandinavia and beyond. Their Irish operation is run under the mcrent.ie brand and is the local face of that international fleet. The practical advantage of a European network is consistency: more standardised vehicle classes, clearer handover processes, and a style that will feel familiar if you have rented on the continent before.
The vehicles are German-built and the site positions them toward renters who want a more hotel-on-wheels motorhome setup rather than a compact van conversion. If your priority is a large family vehicle with a recognisable layout, McRent belongs on the shortlist.
Collinstown Business Park, Cloghran (6 km from Dublin Airport); secondary depot near Limerick
Dethleffs and Sunlight motorhomes — German factory builds
Unlimited mileage included on all rentals
Renters who value standardised European fleet quality, families wanting full-size motorhomes, and anyone with a multi-country itinerary
Fleet overview
McRent Ireland offers a range of campervans and motorhomes from compact 2-berths up to family 6-berths. Vehicles ship from the factory with bicycle racks, awnings, fly screens — the European-standard touring kit. Compared to Irish-only operators whose fleet may include older vehicles refurbished locally, the McRent fleet is rotated more aggressively because it sits inside a pan-European inventory pool.
- Compact campervans (2-berth): Modern Fiat Ducato or Ford Transit conversions, kitchen and double bed.
- Family motorhomes (4-berth): Coachbuilt motorhomes with permanent double + dinette conversion or drop-down bed.
- Large motorhomes (6-berth): Full-size family vehicles with separate bedroom, full bathroom, dinette and over-cab bed.
Depots and pickup
Dublin depot: Collinstown Business Park, Cloghran — approximately 6 km from Dublin Airport. Office hours Monday to Saturday 9am to 5pm; closed Sundays. Phone +353 696 6480 (verify direct before relying on this). The Cloughran location is the same airport-adjacent industrial-estate cluster used by Bunk Campers, so the handover logistics from Dublin Airport are well-trodden.
Limerick area: McRent operates a secondary Irish depot near Limerick, useful for renters arriving via Shannon Airport or starting a Wild Atlantic Way south-to-north itinerary without doubling back through Dublin.
Confirm the live pickup location, security deposit, included driver terms, bedding or kitchen extras, and whether your selected model is a compact campervan or a full coachbuilt motorhome. Those details shift the real-value comparison.
Pricing (2026 — indicative)
McRent Ireland publishes seasonal rate cards through their booking system. As with every operator listed here, the ranges below are indicative — always pull a live quote from mcrent.ie before committing.
| Vehicle type | Low season (approx.) | Peak season (approx.) |
|---|---|---|
| Compact campervan (2-berth) | From ~€90/day | From ~€150/day |
| Family motorhome (4-berth) | From ~€130/day | From ~€220/day |
| Large motorhome (6-berth) | From ~€170/day | From ~€290/day |
Peak season in Ireland runs roughly June to August. McRent's European pool means peak-season inventory in Ireland is often constrained by demand pulling vehicles from continental depots — book early.

Our verdict
The European-fleet pick. If you want a German-built Dethleffs or Sunlight motorhome on Irish roads — and the depot logistics of a pan-European operator — McRent is the natural choice. Two Irish depots (Dublin + Limerick) is more coverage than most Irish-only operators offer.
Downsides to know: Less personal feel than family-run operators like Wild Way or West Coast Campervans. The phone support routes through a European call centre rather than the local depot during some hours. Unlimited mileage is great but the per-day rate is mid-to-premium, not budget.
