How do I travel from the UK to my Eurocamp holiday?

For ferry and channel crossings to/from Calais – Eurocamp have access to discounted slots which are usually significantly cheaper than booking directly. The prices fluctuate slightly, but a return on the ferry from Dover to Calais is typically £100 (it was £112 for an example holiday on 8-15th Aug and ours was £95 in September) and the Le Shuttle Channel Crossing is around £250 (it was £254 for 8-15th Aug and a similar price for us in June). These costs were based on August dates – the price doesn’t really seem to change during peak school holiday times which is awesome!

Other routes: I’m not certain how many different ferry routes Eurocamp offer, but if you are looking for affordable options to/from a different location then the Direct Ferries website is the best place to look. It’s a comparison website for ferry travel so you can easily see all of the prices from different companies, which route options are available and any current offers running. If it’s not included then Direct Ferries is definitely the next best place to look for cheap ferry options.

For Eurocamp holidays with flights – You can’t book your flights through Eurocamp as a package deal, so you’ll need to book the flights yourself if you’d prefer not to drive. When it comes to the budget airlines, I think the best options are Jet2 and EasyJet – and for price comparison the Skyscanner website can be a great place to start. You can sort car hire easily on websites like Expedia, or book your transfers to and from the airport on the Suntransfers website before you go to make your trip stress free.

 

What are the benefits of booking a Eurocamp holiday near a theme park rather than staying on-site?

Booking a Eurocamp holiday near a theme park, rather than staying on-site, is a total win for frugal families like ours. You get all the fun of the rides and attractions during the day, but later you can escape the crowds and chaos to your peaceful little haven for a proper chance to unwind. These Eurocamp sites have swimming pools, playgrounds and activities of their own too – so you can enjoy a well-rounded family trip when you’ve had enough of thrill-seeking. Plus, you can cook your own meals (saving a small fortune on pricey theme park food), and there’s often a bakery for fresh morning croissants – much nicer than grabbing snacks on the go. And the best part? You’ll likely be able to book a week’s Eurocamp stay for the price you’d pay for a couple of nights in a theme park hotel! Have fun! 😍
