Not getting the ferry back home from Dun Laoghaire to Holyhead till 6pm on Sat 22nd Sept and so have planned to spend the day in Dublin sightseeing. Does anyone know if there is any form of park and ride in Dublin or if there is some car park outside of Dublin where i can leave the car and get either a train or bus into the city centre?
Any info much appreciated.

This all depends on what part of the country you are driving from.
The best idea, in my opinion, is to drive to Dún Laoghire and park at the ferryport. Across the road you can get a train direct to Dublin City (about 25 minutes). When you are done sightseeing just get the train back to Dún Laoghaire.
While the Luas is great, it could take you over an hour to get from either of the Park'n'Rides already suggested to the ferryport.

Residing in an extensive bay, Dublin lies between Howth in the north and the headland of Dalkey to the south and the River Liffey split the town in two making from this city an interesting town that you will have the opportunity with hotelbye to visit it. Dublin has given the world such well-known fictional like: Yeats, Beckett, Joyce, Shaw, and Wilde. Dublin was a UNESCO Town of Literature in 2010 therefore is surely an intriguing town to see especially when you intend to visit Bewley's Oriental Café ;.Several could claim that Bewley's Oriental Café may be the jewel in the crown. Bewley's Oriental Café is an institution that has been built-in 1927.

Park your car in Dun Laoghaire and take the DART (Dublin Area Rapid Transit) train to the city centre. Takes about 25 minutes.
Make sure you park your car in a good place though. You wouldn't like it to be clamped!

You can get the Luas from the Red Cow Roundabout. Their is a big car park there. Very easy access to the city via the Luas. Enjoy your day.

Get the Luas in from the Red Cow Roundabout, you can park the car there and it only costs the price of your ticket on the Luas no extra for parking
