Yes. The car parks tend to be very quiet at evening time. From memory there are signs saying its not allowed but we have overnighted several times without issue and there have always been several others who have done the same. Go for it

Try staying at Cushens bar at Tagoat on the N25 about 4 km before Rosslare harbour. Ask at the bar first. It Helps if you're buying food & drink!😉

There is a pull in just on the roundabout going into the terminal. Room for a couple of vans. Anything from 8 mts on will be a bit tight. No facilites

The hotel at the top of the hill before you drop down to the entrance roundabout has now closed and car park at the back is still accessible,this may be a possibility.

Hi Alfie.

She posted that last May, I'm sure they found a place by now, I don't think an unsubscribed member can PM you

In in Cushens Bar Car Park tonight. Unfortunately they don't do any food on a Monday night but he was more than happy I stay. I'll get a Chinese Carry out and have a few drinks in the bar. Around the corner nearer Rosslare is an Outdoot Pursuits Centre that have a motor home overnighting sign up for the car park. I went there as I've got the trailer and wait for it €25 for the night in a car park. He was a bit snottery when I told him he was overcharging. I offered him €10 but no way. What day light' robbery. I can have quite a few pints for,that.

Not only that Jack, wait for this...
€25 each to do kayaking or zip line and another activity that escapes me now, and 30 for the air soft ... Aand parents have to pay as well, even if not doing it.
Can't see him being very busy
Have a great trip
Dave

Dave, three motorhomes along with me came out again. So I was not the only miser and not. Single Motorhome in the park. Three of us now in the Pub Car Park. I'm going over for a few drinks to support him as they don't do food on a Monday night. I would rather give it to him than the other crowd.

That's the way to do it Jack. Vote with your feet, or wheels in this case. Cushens are sound. Enjoy the beer 🍻

I think three, €10's is better than no €, A he will learn when it is too late. Enjoy your Holiday , Jack!

If I'm getting a morning ferry I arrive the night before after the last ferry has left and the check-in booths are closed and park up by the hedge facing the booths.
In the morning I simply join the queue.

Enjoy the holiday Jack. And the few pints.
Just as a matter of note ,on one of our wine trips going to Roscoff, guys who arrived early checked in to the loading queue and then went up to the hotel for a few pints. The Garda were doing breathalyser tests on the pier just before the loading ramp. 5 people were lifted and they didn't come back their vehicles were still there when we pulled out.

Yeah had a few good pints of Guinness in the bar and great craic although the didn't know who I was which was great 😂 and I had a great time. This guy is more than willing to have his stop over included in the App so I'll contact Ally. It's a great wee place and a nice bar and I'm led to believe great food although they don't serve on a Monday night. I'll enjoy France guys and thanks for the wishes.

If you are looking for a overnight stop with kids on board checkout the Rosslare sport and community club about two minutes north of Kellys of Rosslare resort. Throw €5 into the charity shop and you can have all the facilities to entain the kids and park the MH so long as there's no mass across the road.
