Compared Holyhead, Pembroke and Fishguard before settling on Pembroke for the Rosslare sailing, and the thing that stood out was the timings lined up well with our train. Price was fair and the cabin was comfortable enough for the night. Check in went smoothly and the staff were patient with our toddler who needed the loo twice. Would book this route again.
Read moreI had to move our crossing back by two days after my wife was taken poorly, and I wanted to shift the booking rather than lose the fare. The change process on the site was a bit fiddly and I had to ring the call centre in the end, where I waited about twenty minutes. They did sort it and the new date went through without a fuss. The crossing itself was smooth and the cabin was clean.
Read moreFirst time I've booked a ferry to Ireland so I wasn't sure what to expect, and the booking was quick enough on my phone. The sailing itself was smooth and the crew were helpful when I couldn't find the right deck. Only niggle is the car fee at the end of the booking took me by surprise, it wasn't flagged up earlier, but apart from that the crossing went fine and I'd book again.

Quicker to book than the other site I tried, but the price was a bit higher for the same sailing, about a tenner more. Crossing from Pembroke was fine and the car deck was tidy. Quick one from my phone on the train.
I know this route well from years of going over to see family in Cork, and the booking flow on the site has got much better. The one thing that caught me out was the extra charge for a roof box which I hadn't expected at checkout. Sailing itself was on time and the crew were sound.
We needed to get the caravan over to Ireland for a month of touring and the ferry was the only sensible option. Booking the caravan took a few goes because the site kept timing out, but in the end it went through. The crossing was fine and the crew were patient with us reversing onto the deck. Would book again.
