We were thinking of Brittany but when I looked into the long crossings they were hundreds of pounds in school holidays.   Booked Cornwall now. How did you get a cheap crossing?

we joined caravan club last year for cheap crossings, but we crossed to calais and drove to brittany, it's really not such a big deal driving over there, we crossed with 5 persons and the caravan return for £80 took the kids out 2 days early and were there for 3 weeks.

this year we can't go early, but has only put cost up to £130 with or without caravan club!

I wouldn't pay that much for a ferry crossing when I get one for £187 to Cherbourg. Never had a problem with Condor, always on time and although the boat is old, only takes about 5 hours. Used it about 5 times now on a Sunday.
We rarely book a site but look when we have arrived in France. Depends on our mood where we go.
