Ferry travel to France

 

All our prices include a mid-week return ferry crossing with one car and up to 9 passengers with P&O from Dover to Calais. Other routes and operators are also available. Some services attract a supplement (shown per single journey) whereas others can save you money as indicated in the chart below.

 

For accommodation only deduct £70 from brochure price for self-catered apartments and chalets.

Why fly when you can drive?

Driving is by far the most flexible option, where you are in control of your own timetable, can take as much luggage as you need (including sport & leisure equipment at no extra charge), stop en route as and when you choose and maybe visit a little vineyard on the way through Burgundy. You can also stay in more than one resort and take day trips to areas of interest, while maximising your leisure time in the resort.

 

Because we have negotiated great prices with the ferry companies and Eurotunnel we are able to offer the best value for money possible.

 

For independent travellers we can offer accommodation-only bookings. Most of our resorts are close to the international airports of Geneva, Grenoble, Chambery, Lyon or Turin (see our airlines and car hire companies sections).

 

We can also arrange competitive car hire.
