car hire - west Wales

can anyone help me. I need to hire a 7 seater (minimum) vehicle as cheaply as possible for the Easter 2010 weekend to travel to a family wedding. Can anyone recommend a good bargain or point me in the direction of a community bus that loans out - I have a full driving licence (clean as well) held for 20+ years.

    I live in the Carmarthen area and have used Practical Car rental in the past for van hire, I assume their minibuses are okay. There's also a branch in Fishguard but as another thread says they're a Franchise operation so no guarantee that all branches are good. Other Suggestion would be Days Rental in Haverfordwest.

    (:( I'm not allowed to post links so...)

    I've also had good service from Enterprise Car Rental, again in Carmarthen but only for cars, although they did upgrade me to a Chrysler Voyager which might be big enough for you ? They also do a pick-up service, but I'm not sure how far they will travel.

    Only other place near you (I assume you're Cardigan way ?) is National Car Rental who appear to have a branch in Aberystwyth.

    Apart from the above there only appear to be companies that will hire you a minibus with a driver and these are quite expensive.

    I'm currently drive for a minibus sharing scheme in Pembrokeshire but you need to attend one of their driver courses before they will let you hire a bus and it's generally for voluntary organizations only. PM Me if you need info on the scheme.

    Sorry can't be more help.
