Hotels were lovely but no entertainment and too far out to travel in for the evening. Hotel staff amazing. Biggest disappointment was the travel after adjoining the coach. We live 4 hours from the ferry in Holyhead and it took us 10 hours to get there due to travelling around from Cardiff via Bristol, Chepstow, Worcester, changed coaches at Lymm services and finally to Holyhead. Poor communication from coach company. Despite the travel we had a great holiday. Coach drivers John and Graham very good.

Lovely holiday. Nice hotel in Tipperary Nice touch offering drinks onboard the coach The hotel in Dublin was ok but no air conditioning made rooms too hot and couldn’t open windows due to road noise Did wonder as the airport bus picks up from the hotel if it could be an option to offer return by airport at a higher cost but would be a much shorter journey home for people facing a long journey
