Welsh rare bits
Wales is definitely getting away from it all, achieving that desirable state of being somewhere different, hearing different accents, breathing different air. And for once, it’s easy to get there. Cork-Swansea (www.fastnetline.com) is ideal for exploring South Wales. For those living in the south-east, Rosslare-Pembroke (www.irishferries.com), or Rosslare-Fishguard (www.stenaline.ie) will bring you to the wild beauties of the Gower Peninsula. And of course Dublin-Holyhead (www.irishferries.com), couldn’t be easier for dwellers in and around our capital city.
