Thinking of goin to benidorm next year having 3 children dont no wat to for the best

Been tryin to get a price on ferry crossing from portsmouth to bilbao but even booking this early in advance its still veryyyyy costly £938.00. So dont no wether to drive from calais surely it wont cost that much in tolls and sites on the way down or and fuel.

Has anybody done this treck in the past and wat would you advise,its just 3 children stuck in a mondeo for days and hours while about 8 from bilbao just dont no wat to do any advice would be welcomed...

This is wat ive come up with so far

portsmouth to bilbao in june £635.00 campsite £300.00 approx £65.00 fuel but 8to9 hours drive according to michellin route finder so far approx £1000,00 thats option 1

or option 2

dover to calais approx £150.00 ferry 2 stop offs on way approx £60.00 plus £300 for site in benidorm £189 petrol 1 way so £278 both ways but 2 days to get there so in total approx £800.  or

option 3  package holiday for 5 people approx £2000

I think ill keep working on this but can say option 3 right out of the window,,,,,,,

I think that you should do your sums again as to get there in 2 days you would be doing around 560 miles per day.

I would say at least 3 days there and the same back as its around 1130miles each way, there is also the trip to dover as well.

If you are talking about July/August why drive that far.
