What makes this spot special

your cousin's local knowledge
Dublin - Swords

The Swords branch is on the North Street Business Park, about five minutes from Dublin Airport but away from the airport compound. It is the local-area alternative to the airport pickup.

Swords itself is a north Dublin suburb with a Norman castle, a good main street, and fast access to the M1 motorway. If you are staying in north Dublin, or if someone is dropping you at the branch, it can be more convenient than navigating the airport car hire compound.

From Swords, you are twenty minutes from the city centre, forty minutes from the Boyne Valley, and under two hours from Belfast.
