Hi a question for anyone that has used Brittany Ferries, we are looking to take our Pennine Pullman to Normandy next year. On checking the ferries they have two options for trailers, standard with maximum length of 4m and max height of 1.85m, or large trailer/caravan for a length over 4m and height exceeding 1 85m.

The Pennine is 4.1m long including towbar hitch and height of 1.4m, can I get away with the standard size trailer even though it exceeds the 4m overall length or do I need to book the large trailer size.

I always book as a standard (no one has ever got a tape measure out on the ferry to check).

Give a man a fish and he'll feed his family for a day.

Teach a man to fish and he'll sit around on a boat all day drinking beer!

As we live in Spain and cross lots of times per year and this time we will have our Q4 on the back and I have booked 4mtr trailer and car down to Santander.
Oh by the way we are in the ferry club and save 30% on sail costs "if" you are going to Spain PM me I will give you a code and you can save 10% on your sail costs if it helps!

look all over the uk and spain if the sun is out so are we.

As well is two words!
How does a sage know everything about everything? or does he? or does he just think he does?
Remember, if you buy something you bought it, not brought it.
