Cheap ferries to Europe by AFerry.co.uk

Ferry connections from the UK to continental Europe are extensive. France is the most popular destination but Holland and Spain are key too, cutting driving time in Europe for people living in Scotland and the north of England or for those heading to Spain and Portugal.

We’ve put together a guide to all of the different ferry crossings currently available from the UK to Europe. As well as the popular ones like Dover – Calais, we’ve also included a few non-UK routes, too, such as Copenhagen – Oslo. The reason for this is that these are ferry services commonly used by British and Irish motorhome owners. For example, the Copenhagen – Oslo ferry has become a key part of the route to Norway and Sweden for British motorhomers since the UK – Norway ferry services stopped running in 2008.
