Brittany Ferries

Win a return travel voucher for two adults and two bicycles*

Ferry Crossings & Holidays to France & Spain

Our Classic Cruise ferries and High Speed ferry services sail from Portsmouth, Poole and Plymouth to Cherbourg, Caen, Roscoff, St Malo in France and to Santander in northern Spain.

Enjoy The Freedom Of Cycling In France

With mile upon mile of uncrowded open road, a warmer climate and great “après-bike” opportunities, France is the natural choice for a cycle touring holiday. It’s considered by many to be the home of cycling and the annual “Tour” has been a highlight of the French sporting calendar for over a century. And with Brittany Ferries, cycling France is on the doorstep.

With historic towns and welcoming villages at every turn, and miles of unspoilt and often spectacular scenery in between, France is a great destination for any cyclist. The roads are smooth and less crowded than at home, and cyclists receive much greater respect (and reverence) from passing motorists. Away from the main roads, there’s a well developed cycle network consisting of “veloroutes” (long-distance cycle routes, linking towns and regions) and ”voies vertes” (traffic-free lanes following the paths of former railways, canal towpaths and river valleys).

Brittany Ferries

Crossing the Channel with Brittany Ferries is convenient and cycle-friendly. The three UK ports of Portsmouth, Poole and Plymouth offer good connections to the National Cycle Network. There’s also a wide choice of routes leading direct to some of the best cycle touring regions of France. What's more, it’s possible to mix and match routes, setting off from one French port and ending up at another.

It’s easy to book bikes either online or by phone, and taking a bicycle costs only £10 return on top of the normal passenger fare, even in peak period. And when it comes to stops en route, Brittany Ferries can make all the arrangements with a selection of hotels all over France, catering to every taste and budget.

To plan a cycling holiday in France or to book, please visit www.brittanyferries.com/cycling or call 0871 244 1400.

*The prize will consist of a travel voucher that entitles two adults and two bicycles to an unlimited [standard] return trip to France (EX UK) with cabins on both legs of the journey. Valid for travel until 31/12/2009.

For your chance to win simply answer the question below:

With Brittany Ferries, which 3 UK ports can you sail from?
