I found these guys prices really good,

I only paid £50 return for a family of 4 in July returning August and the sailing times are 8.15am and 2.15pm.

With a car and caravan the best deal around at the moment is Norfolkline (website something similar).  They're offering car/caravan plus two people for £118 return, Dover to Dunkerque, and that's all season!!!  Otherwise, without a caravan the best deal at the moment is Speedferries, where you can cross for as little as £35 return!!!!  Our friends have just booked for August!

In recent months I've trawled all over looking for decent deals. The best prices for an MPV and 5 persons at the 'mo are P&O Portsmouth-LeHavre for £70 return, or Transmanche Ferries Newhaven-Dieppe for £60. I booked Dover-Calais in August £121.50 return car, caravan & 5 people. If I'd booked through the Caravan Club, I'd have got another tenner off!

Isn't there a new ferry company started up a couple of years ago that run it a bit like EasyJet did?

I'm not anywhere near there details at the mo, but if someone else doesn't reply, I'll try and dig out the website address.

The company was covered by a TV program late last year, showing how they had set it up, and the tricks that the big operators did to try and stop them.

Speedferries.com - very cheap! £ 38 return for car in July/Aug - means we're off to France this year instad of Bala (no offence Bala - we'll be back!)

Try Norfolk Line - that's only £118 at the moment, for car and caravan plus two people.  THAT'S CHEAP.

Hi

I've just booked this weekend for car, folder and 3 people for £118 with Norfolkline - thats for August this year!! 

The price includes up to 9 people I think.....though how you could possibly fit nine people in I don't know! LOL!

This was by far the cheapest we had tried, and always plenty of special offers. Even some £60 returns!!!
