[Brittany Ferries - Plymouth to Roscoff - Anyone know how to obtain discount fares?]

Hello

I am planning to travel from Plymouth to Roscoff this Summer but the Brittany Ferries website is quoting £765 return (including 15% off if booked by the end of Jan!!)!  Anyone know how I can get a cheaper price? (I am not a property owner). Brittany Ferries seem to be charging ridiculous prices for the luxury of a Western Channel crossing!  

My details are:

Plymouth to Roscoff

18th July @ 23.30

Standard car with rear mounted cycle rack

2 adults and 2 children (5/7)

4 berth cabin

Roscoff to Plymouth

2nd August @ 23.30

Standard car with rear mounted cycle rack

3 adults (not 2) and 2 children (5/7)

4 berth cabin

I normally use Speedferries, but now live in North West England. We are travelling to Quimper, so Plymouth/Roscoff would make more sense for us and avoid a 350 mile drive from Boulogne to Quimper!

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks

[Route from Boulogne to the Dordogne]

Being in Clitheroe, I was planning to use the M6. The author of the second posting in this topic probably presumed that I was nearer to Yorkshire than Lancashire!!

[Route from Boulogne to the Dordogne]

Hello

I'm travelling to the Dordogne on 1st June, sailing Speedferries at 14.20  then staying in a "Le B+B" just off the motorway at Orleans.

Can anyone advise on the best route from Boulogne? - Via Paris or via Rouen / Evereux etc?  I've not yet had the pleasure of driving on the Paris peripherique, so wondered about the alternatives. Is there much in it?

Any other advice about this drive? Good pints, bad points?

Thanks

Neil
