" Edda Rules the Waves"

I haven't travelled by ferry to Ireland for more than 25 years, so I was astounded at the difference between the ferries of old and the present day. I travelled on the Edda and it was more like a cruise ship than a ferry. elegant, modern decor, excellent passenger facilities and super helpful crew. I could have done without the gale force conditions on my return trip, but if you do find yourslef on the Irish Sea in a November gale, there's no place better than the Stena Edda!
