Poole to Gijon and back. Just along from Bilboa.

This is a new route, so bargain prices.

Just checked again. Crossimg like ours as a single biike and rider with our out bound and return britany ferries 518 quid. As a group booking early it was 360. So we saved 160 each but nothing like ur saving
We just checked id ferries. you did well. Wouldnt suit us as there is only one outward crossing a week which is a tuesday arriving on a wednesday in spain we want to be at faro on the thursday. Also only one return a week. For ouur times its also 350 quid 1 rider one bike 1 cabin return.
Will consider it for future

Be good to meet up bud.
