Sometimes it is just luck of the draw, but I have found that booking direct with the ferry companies is cheaper than going through an agent. We are going to France on Friday with P&O and it has cost us £150 return for the caravan, shogun and 3 adults and a 13 year old. We only booked this about a month ago and we priced all the main ones at the time and this was the cheapest. Have travelled previously with Seafrance, P&O and Norfolk lines.  We always go with the cheapest

P&O often have good prices, play around with the sailing times to get the best deal. Also try Speed Ferries, you can   get different a variety of ticket types, The cheapest are completely none flexible, if you miss the boat you're stuffed It's a shorter crossing compared to P&O etc

This Thurs we're going out by Speed Ferries and returning by P&O. Try Ferries Direct, you can search all the crossings and get good idea of price.

Speed Ferries are no good if you have a caravan, they will only take a trailer.
