Hi,
Can anybody reccommend the cheapest ferry operator over to St Malo or the best alternative route down to Poitou Charentes please?
Also I heard about some offer for £99 if you book before the end of October. Does anybody know about this?
Many thanks for any assistance.

Lee.

You need to check all the ferry operators websites. They all have online booking systems so you can get quotes for the dates you want. I doubt you will get £99 for a St Malo crossing or any other western channel route. you will get well under £100 return for a car on the Dover routes.

If you google separately the following..P&O, Brittany Ferries, LD Lines, Seafrance, Norfolkline, you will find the ferry operators websites.

At the moment you can book Norfolk Lines, using the code TEF04 - and get a discount, but this is Dover to Dunkerque - lots of people have paid £58.00 return for car and caravan.  

I don't imagine any of the ferry operators will be offering £99 to St Malo - nearer £500 I would have thought.

You can do Poitou Charente by setting off from Dunkerque - then Abbeville, Rouen, Le Mans - and the head wherever you're going, but it's a lot longer run then from St Malo.

Try Condor from Portsmouth to Cherbourg instead. Only goes on Sundays and this year cost £104 single with caravan going free and reclining seat. Takes 4 hours.

I have contacted Condor but they haven't scheduled their crossings for next year yet.
