Zitat von Boxerboy55 im Beitrag #2 200 miles to Portsmouth for me, 180 to Hull but there is no way I am using P&O. I last used them on the Dover crossing and they were hopeless, then there is the fire and rehire debacle. Brittany Ferries is usually a pleasant experience and I will be using them twice this year, to go to Spain in May, as per Figure of 8 post, then St Malo in September, down to La Rochelle, the Lot and Cevennes then return via the Volcanes and Loire. Not eligible for this discounted ticket though.

I do like the idea of riding way down near the France / Spain border. Carpe Diem! |

Zitat von Boxerboy55 im Beitrag #4 It's a great area, whether in the Pyrenees, their foothills, some great river valleys like the Lot, Tarn and Aude with fabulous gorges. We will also be staying in Le Mont Dore, surrounded by extinct volcanoes and is where you will find the source of the Dordogne. Have you explored getting a ferry to Belfast, riding down to Rosslare and another ferry to Bilbao? You are quite close to the Pyrenees and can either ride back up through France or return from Bilbao. Apparently Ireland to Spain is cheaper than going from the UK.

We went to Carnac southern Brittany last year on this deal had a self catering for 3 nights and was great a lovely beach, and great scenery riding there and back went out Plymouth to roscoff, it is great value currently looking at there 6 night deal to Spain for early September to have a blast around the pico’s. |

Zitat von wessie im Beitrag #5Zitat von Boxerboy55 im Beitrag #4 The Friday Rosslare departure is at midnight so it’s reachable from Scotland in the one day while enjoying some nice non-motorway alternatives down the east coast. The ferry to Bilboa is long, but you’d be surprised how quickly it passes. And when you get off the boat, you’re there. While not cheap, I’d recommend going for the lounge access, but that’s a personal choice. Am going to central’ish spain in late May with a group of biking cronies, the a week after I get back off again in the car with Mrs Marco for camping northern Spain / southern France. So I’ll be well ferried out for the rest of the year. |

I always use the shuttle service, quick service, one hour break in journey, price depends on time of travel. |
