Travelling to Northern France from the UK by ferry

Fortunately, there lots of port options in Northern France so it’s a great holiday destination if you’re planning to travel by ferry and take a road trip. The Dover to Calais route is usually cheapest – it’s discounted when booked through Eurocamp and typically around £100 for a return. However other routes may be more practical if you live in the west of the UK. For all other routes, the Direct Ferries website is the best place to compare deals, providers and crossing times. Here’s a little bit about each port to help you to decide which option is best for your trip:

  • St Malo from the UK by ferry: If you’re taking the ferry from the UK to St Malo from southern ports like Poole, the crossing usually takes around 6 hours. If you sail from Portsmouth, the journey is longer at around 10 to 11 hours but this is typically an overnight crossing, which many families actually prefer. Booking a cabin means the kids can sleep through most of the journey and arrive in France refreshed.

  • Roscoff from the UK by ferry: The ferry crossing from the UK to Roscoff takes around 6-7 hours from Plymouth. You can book cabins for overnight sailings, enjoy proper meals onboard and let little ones stretch their legs rather than being stuck in car seats for hours. Arriving into Roscoff drops you straight into Northern Brittany.
  • Caen from the UK by ferry: Travelling from the UK to Caen by ferry is a really popular option for families heading to Normandy or Brittany. Sailings usually run from Portsmouth and are operated by Brittany Ferries, with both daytime and overnight crossings available. The journey takes around 6 hours and arriving at Caen, or more specifically Ouistreham, puts you straight onto the Normandy coast.
  • Reaching Calais from the UK: Travelling from the UK to Calais is one of the quickest and most flexible ways to get to France. The Dover to Calais ferry is typically more affordable than Le Shuttle and it takes around 90 minutes. Le Shuttle is a bit pricier but it’s a good option for a quick crossing. Leaving from Folkestone, you simply drive onto the train and stay in your car – arriving in France about 30 minutes later.

 

Flying to Northern France from the UK

There are also plenty of airports in Northern France so, if you’re coming from further afield or you prefer to fly, it’s definitely worth using Skyscanner to compare prices, providers and flight times. Here are some of the airports you might want to check out based on the location of your Eurocamp holiday park:

Is Northern France worth a visit?

Northern France is absolutely worth a visit, especially for families looking for an easy, good-value break that still feels like a proper holiday. With short ferry crossings and minimal travel it’s ideal if you’re travelling with kids. You get beautiful beaches, pretty harbour towns, fabulous resorts and loads of family-friendly attractions – all without the long drive further south. We loved our visit to Brittany!
