Ferry to Dublin- advice please!

We want to travel to Dublin but I think the Liverpool -Dublin ferry no longer exists. We will be travelling from London with kids who hate the car. Which crossing/route is the best option to get us and the car there? Thank you : )

How about Fishguard/ Rosslare. It’s an easy drive up to Dublin from Rosslare.

Liverpool - Belfast still exists & drive to Dublin if kids hate the car.

Belfast to Dublin is 2 hrs in the car.

Liverpool - Belfast sailing is 12 hours long. We'd do it overnight & get book a cabin to sleep in

You could also go Liverpool to Belfast and then it is an easy two hours from Belfast to Dublin via car. If kids hate the car I would look at each of the sailing routes and add up time in car and whatever is shortest do that. It could actually be cheaper to fly and hire a car.
