Be gentle we are newbies ..
Only had our van for a few weeks but are desperate to go over to Europe. Would really love to get something booked in the next few weeks.
We really haven't much of a clue where to start ! We did spontaneously jump in a large Transit van and head over to Germany many years ago when we took a bike over to the Nurburgring . Went ok but we got shafted on ferry costs as we did it with short notice.
Brittany is looking favorable as a destination . We just want to get away from the bloody awful weather for a few weeks.
So who or which ferry company is best to book with ? We have joined the Camping and caravan club but not sure if we can get discounts through them or mentioning them when we try to book ?
Truth is this is a bit daunting so would like to get stuck in and get the first European trip under our belts.
I think Portsmouth to St Malo might be better just now with the chaos at Dover. I think Portsmouth is easier for us anyway.
Thanks.
We have been using the Newhaven to Dieppe ferry for several years now four hour crossing yes but hasn't got the issues of Calais or the high cost of Portsmouth
