What's the highest rate that's advisable to use with the granny cable? Is 13amp ok or is it best to stick with 10amp?

The max rated amperage from a domestic supply in Ireland is a notional 13 amps, but its unlikely anything in normal usage draws that much. If you use the IV=P formula, 13*220=2860W. That's equivalent of almost 29 100W bulbs.
I'd reduce to 10amps max or get an electrician to install a dedicated outdoor socket direct from fuseboard with an RCD. Do not use an extension lead as electrical fires are a real danger in my opinion.

The cable that comes with the car has a max output of 10A. You can buy a 16A one but make sure your house wiring/electrical box/plugs support it.

If you want 16A in your garage or something I would go for a wallbox honestly it's mote expensive but you coule already future proof with a 7.2kw or higher charger

There's a €600 SEAI grant available in Ireland to install a home charger, you have to have off street parking though.
I take about 4 hrs to fully charge car from a 3.6Kw home unit also the morning pre-heat is completed with no loss of range.
