There is always a process.

Each year we (my mum and dad (who pay), my brother, his wife, their two kids, my wife, my daughter, and I) go on holiday for a week stopping in a self catering cottage. We have always gone to Devon and Cornwall.
I am looking for next year now, and have been looking further afield - Dorset.
Been looking all along the south coast of England, Wales, a look at France, but my dad doesn't want to drive over there. Looked at the Channel Islands, and the Isle of Wight.
My wife got carried away and started looking for villas in Spain and Portugal.
Then I had and idea, what about Ireland, the proper bit at the bottom.
Cottages are about a quarter to a fifth of the price everywhere else I've looked.
Am I missing something? Is there anything wrong with Ireland to make it so cheap? Is there actually anything there to do?
If you were two old but active persons, four in your thirties, and three children aged between 6 and 10, where would you go on holiday and why?

Check the ferry costs - it's normally £300~£400 for a car and passengers...
Other than that, lovely place.

It was the cost of getting three cars to Guernsey that scuppered a proposed holiday there two years ago.
Trying to get the cost of a ferry to anywhere is a mission in itself on the websites, a mission I have so far failed to complete.

Check out Irish Feries[^], around £250 for a car. Whatever you do don't even think about the Swansea-Cork crossing, even in the summer you'll hate it!
I'd look at SW, maybe in or around Cork, normally good [for Ireland] weather. The great advantage of holidaying in Ireland is that there's no chance of sunburn. The drawback is the tendency to rust.

+10 The Swansea Cork crossing is always rough - last time me and wifey went it took 14 hours and even the hard lorry drivers were being sick. Oh, and you end up in Cork.

When I was about 12 or 13 we went on a North sea ferry to Belgium in very rough weather. The toilet floors were awash with vomit, hailstones the size of tennis balls were pelting the outside decks, everyone was sitting down and clinging on.
I was the only person in the restaurant, tucking into steak and kidney pie and chips.

That's cos the restaurant is about as mid-ships as you can get, which minimizes the effects of a choppy sea on the ship, and being the only one there, you were out of the way of the smell of vomit everywhere else (often the smell alone is enough to make you add to it).
Over the years I've done the Fishguard to Rosslaire trip and the Dover to Belgium trip often, several times with wife and kids, and I know of what I speak

Serious answer.
For that sort of thing you are already doing it right. Devon/Cornwall or Brittany. If you are looking at France then bear in mind the Tolls/Petrol. The Dover crossing is by far the cheapest but we ended up spending more on Petrol and tolls on the otherside. The next time we paid more for the Portsmouth crossing but I think it worked out cheaper after deducting the extra tolls.
