Coach Services London / Ireland

    Hi Guys,

    I have travelled between Ireland and London by coach. It has always been a pretty grim experience. I did it numerous times as a child.

    The last one I did was 2 years ago via a Bus Eirrin coach from Store Street Coach Station departing at 7PM going via Holyhead and arriving in London about 8 or 9 in the morning. (I did one half of the trip by train). Coach between Ireland and the UK seems as grim as I remember it.

    I was just wondering if anyone could recommend any companies that do go between the UK and Ireland that offer a bit of a more luxurious service ?

    These days, some of the coaches I see in the UK have two decks, tables, WiFi, and some even have sleeper cabins.

    Just wondering if there are any companies which offer this ?

    Also, are there any independent firms who do Mini Bus style travel. I see a lot of these from London to Poland.

    Thanks in Advance

    Never used them myself but http://uk.megabus.com/Default.aspx travel from Rosslare, can't imagine the buses are bad and I would have thought that the Bus Éireann buses are comfortable enough, can't see how a minibus would be more comfortable and no-one is doing a sleeper style bus service.

    Sea and rail costs £35 so if I was you I would do that.
