    Any chance of a few details - ie when, how many people travelling, how your travelling etc.

    Irish ferries do a some cheap ferries from holyhead to dublin port.

  • Still not enough info - do you want to take a car,day foot passenger or a normal return?
    Have you looked on the Irishferries or Stena Line websites?

    How about going over as foot passengers and hiring a car when you get there?

    (There is a long stay car park near the port at £5 per day (I think)).

    Yes it does cost more to travel to ireland but you are travelling further!

    Also there are only 2 companies competing for business rather than the half dozen or more on the dover-calais routes.
