we've done that crossing twice, the second time with a caravan and it was absolutely fine. My husband was concerned like you but it really was absolutely fine.

I think caravans board and exit from more central locations than that shown in the first video.
the second video would be the one for caravans.

Great venue, we did it just over a year ago, we spent the night on a campsite a couple of miles from the terminal, just in case the were traffic issues. Added to the adventure. All of the island is great, highly recommended.

We go nearly every year and have found it easy you just drive on the ferry one end and then when you arrive you leave the other end of the ferry
