Valid for travel from 15th February to 26th June, bookings must be made by 28th February and 7 days in advance of travel.
Irish Ferries is targeting families with their latest offer. Children under 16 years are now half price when travelling by car on a family trip to Ireland.
Bookings must be made by 26 July for travel up to and including 31 August 2012. The larger the family, the bigger the saving!
Motorist fares for a family car – including most 4x4s and people carriers – start at £109 one-way for vehicle and driver.
The normal child fare of £15 is discounted to £7.50 while additional adults pay £26 each way.
“Ireland is a fantastic destination for families,” says head of passenger sales Declan Mescall. “From Blue Flag beaches to family-friendly pubs, children are always welcome in Ireland.”
The half price kids deal applies to both the Holyhead to Dublin and the Pembroke to Rosslare routes, and to all ships, including the Dublin Swift.
A summer holiday in Ireland – for up to five people and including return ferry crossings – now costs as little as £800 with Irish Ferries Holidays.
That’s for a seven night holiday taken any week between Saturday 14 July and Saturday 18 August 2012 at Moore Bay Holiday Homes just a few minutes’ away from a Blue Flag beach in beautiful County Clare, and represents a saving of £70 on the original brochure price.
Each modern, tourist-board rated cottage sleeps up to five with one double room ensuite, a twin and a single. The open-plan living space is family-friendly, and within the grounds there’s a tennis court, crazy golf, football pitch and toddlers’ play area. Local activities include Kilkee Surf School, a water-sports centre, fishing trips and golf courses. The seaside resort of Kilkee, just a few minutes’ drive away, has an indoor acqua park and a great selection of pubs and restaurants.
Other holidays where the same deal applies include Seacliffe holiday cottages in County Waterford, superbly set above Counsellors Strand, a sandy cove at Dunmore East. Here, a week’s summer holiday for a family of up to five now costs £839, saving £70.
And in County Cork, Sam Maguire’s Cottages (named after a local Gaelic football legend) just outside the pretty town of Clonakilty are now available at just £844 for a family of up to six, again saving £70. These four-star cottages are set in glorious countryside, within easy reach of West Cork’s fabulous beaches: Inchydoney, Baltimore and Bantry to name but three.
Other discounted cottage holiday locations include Killarney, Tralee, Wexford, Druids Glen in County Wicklow and Swords just outside Dublin.
All discounted holidays must be booked by 16 June 2012. All prices include self-catering accommodation and return ferry crossings for a family car, two adults and up to four children. Choose Holyhead to Dublin on Ulysses, or Pembroke to Rosslare on the Isle of Inishmore.

Irish Ferries Holidays is discounting all self-drive holidays by 15 per cent, for bookings made by 24 March for travel before the end of the year.
The deal applies to all ferry-inclusive packages, from short breaks in Dublin to touring holidays in Ireland’s wonderful B&Bs and to family-friendly holiday cottages close to Blue Flag beaches.
The 15 per cent discount means, for example that an Easter break at the Burlington Hotel – a great choice for its central Dublin location, free parking and four-star standards – now costs only £199 per person, saving £30 each. That’s based on two people sharing a room for a three-night stay, with ‘the full Irish’ breakfast each day.
At Jubilee Half Term, a five-night break at a holiday cottage in County Wexford, the sunniest corner of Ireland, is down from £412 to £350 – that’s the total for a family of two adults and up to four children under 16 on a mid-week break at Glenbeg Point Holiday village within the period 1-10 June.
And looking ahead to Summer, a week’s holiday in the west of Ireland for a family of six now costs as little as £888, saving £160 on the original cost. That’s for two adults and four children under 16 in a three-bedroom four-star house in County Kerry, starting any Saturday between 14 July and 17 August. The well-equipped houses – which also welcome dogs – are only a few minutes’ walk from the colourful seaside village of Waterville with a choice of beautiful sandy beaches and breathtaking mountain scenery within easy reach.
In all cases, prices include return ferry crossings for a car and passengers on either the Ulysses between Holyhead and Dublin or the Isle of Inishmore from Pembroke to Rosslare.
