Never been on Stenaline.
is it necessary to book a cabin for EUR 30 ? Is there enough space/entertainment for a 3 hour journey otherwise?

Atlantic Dawn · 15-03-2016 11:28pm

If only duty free was still there :pac:

Not much entertainment but no need to book a cabin, buy a book or bring a tablet/laptop and watch some movies/shows. The wifi won't let you access any streaming or media intensive sites so you'll need to have them pre loaded.

I do the route a LOT as am from North Wales, a bog standard foot passenger fare is normally around 44euro one way

If you're getting a train to a further destination that's far away, say London, then it's still worth getting the Rail & Sail as a train ticket, open return as Rail and Sail Tickets are, can cost upward of 100stg from Holyhead.

But for a cheeky little trip to North Wales this 1euro offer really is a no brainer

44 Euro is rip off you could fly to London for that price.

Then fly to London then, some people would prefer not to fly

A Rail and Sail is 90euro return to London, chill out, take as many bags with you as you want and stretch your legs as much as you like

You wont get to central London for €90.00 return by flying anyway, not a hope, sail/rail way to go

Kind of useless if you are going to Wales. Have a fear of flying, etc. Have a heavy piece of luggage, etc.

ted1 · 16-03-2016 1:24am

There all long sailings, are there any fast sailings on offer , love to take the kids on a day trip but the two way just takes too long.

I'd easily pay double

I got to London city airport in January for 65 euro return, used the tube then.
A lot less than 90 euro!

No, Stena no longer have a fast boat, they have a new boat on the route called 'Superfast X' but it's just a bit of name trickery, still 3 1/2hrs

Plenty to do on the boat nowadays though, kids area, free cinema (Jurassic World was one of the films last week)

heldel00 · 16-03-2016 2:00am

Hurrah we're booked. Three of us for €6! Thanks OP

Plenty of Irish have been unfortunate enough to have missed their ferry and been stranded in Holyhead and forced to drink themselves stupid in the Boston pub as the town is so depressing

Well done you. What's seldom is wonderful, never saw a flight to central London for anywhere next nor near that price

shanemkelly · 16-03-2016 10:17am

Magic OP! 2 adults & 2 kids day-trip to the metropolis* of Holyhead for €8 return.
