Holyhead to Belfast on the Stena Estrid. The Best Ferry on the Irish Sea (change my mind)!

Описание: Hello everyone and welcome to leg 6 of the long weekend 'trip-fest' and quite possibly my favourite part of the journey - Holyhead to Belfast on the Stena Estrid.

In-particular, I was really looking forward to trying out the deluxe cabin I’d booked for this crossing, especially after the lack of sleep I’d had the previous night. Well I can tell you that this ship did not disappoint, in any way.

In this video, I’ll take you on a detailed tour of the cabin and parts of the ship you may find interesting if you’re thinking about trying this ferry out for yourself. I should mention (as I do in the video) that the Holyhead to Belfast route was a short-lived affair, prior to the Republic of Ireland loosening restrictions on 19 July 2021. If you want to try out the Stena Estrid, she remains on the usual Holyhead to Dublin route. But if you really want a great nights crossing to make full use of the cabin, I would recommend her sister ships the Stena Edda and Stena Embla that operate on the Liverpool to Belfast route. They’re basically the same ferries so the layout of the cabins for example still apply.

What do you think of the ferry? I can’t honestly think of a better ship, for the money, operating from the UK. Brittany Ferries are good and I’ve been on every one of their boats at least once. But they’re expensive and pound for pound, I think Stena have nailed it with these e-flexer ferries. Like I say in the title, if you don’t agree, feel free to change my mind and let me know if there are any other boats you would like me to try.

As always guys, I really appreciate your input and I want to say I also value your support on this channel. I look forward to your comments and please, if you enjoy this content, spread the word and feel free to like and subscribe. That would be superb.

Thanks for watching and cheers for now!
