Hi all

Can anyone help with recommendations or suggestions please.

We shall need either a "wild spot" or campsite overnight when we get off the ferry at Rosslare. We dock at 6.15pm so time to drive a little way.

The return will be more awkward as we dock in Pembroke at 12.45am. Is there anywhere on or near the docks to get a few hours rest?

Any help much appreciated, and thanks in advance.

Cheers

What direction are you looking to head in when you get to Rosslare?

Last time we were there we used this overpriced site* about half an hour from the dock

* Note, I consider the majority of sites to be overpriced in Ireland

On your way back there is a car park on the Parrog just after you get off the ferry next to the ocean lab, given the lateness of your crossing I doubt you will be the only van parked up there Wink

Thanks Oldskool Very Happy Very Happy

That's very helpful. Will look into both suggestions.

Regards


(Edit) Have had a look on Google Earth (should have thought of it sooner) and there appear to be two or three large parking areas very close to the port at Fishguard.

We will arrive with time to spare so we can ask permission to park overnight on our return.

Thanks again

It was possible to park directly behind the terminal, not sure if this is still the case, you could check on arrival and then decide.This is the nearset one if stuck.-

St. Margarets is closest caravan park to Rosslare Ferry Port (just 15 minutes drive). Located in a rural area of natural beauty, near a safe sandy beach, which forms part of the Wexford Coastal path, perfect for long relaxing walks. St. Margarets is an attractive, quiet family run park, ideal as a base to explore the sunny South East, or as an overnight stop to or from the ferry.
Directions: St. Margarets is located just 15 minutes from Rosslare port. When leaving the ferry continue along the N25 past Kilrane for approx, 4km, when you approach the next village Tagoat turn left, direction Lady's Island/Carne Beach Broadway, continue for 2.5km pass Butlers Bar on the left, take the next turn to the left and continue down that road for 2km. We are signposted from the N25

Thanks Torrhead

That's brilliant. We shall have our dog with us so a coastal walk or two will be very enjoyable.

I think we shall spend a couple of nights with you anyway, and depending on the weather and local advice (from yourselves I guess) we may well use it as a base for a bit of exploring.

This will be our first t
