Cos I live across the sheugh I cannot access the discount as it only shows Irish routes so I was going to try ringing them and going into plead mode.
However I may need my membership number but cannot locate it.
Any tips?

That's the same page I get? So a little bit of direction is required for us, not do savvy people 😱🤔😊



Your membership number is available to you after you click on your own username so your profile page is displayed.
Now look at the address bar for this new page, and it will look like this:
"https://motorhomecraic.com/usercp.php?u=xxxx "

Your membership number is displayed here as xxxx.

What's the deal with pets in vehicle on Brittany ferries? I see options for a pet friendly cab on the way out but not on the return journey. This would suggest all the pet friendly cabins are booked out. But i can't get good information on the pet in vehicle option, especially as to whether or not per visits are possible.

They don't do a pet in vehicle option, only cabin or cage

They do book out quickly alright, there's about 30 of them and they're popular
Stena I think are the only ones who allow dogs in van and I think that's only on the smaller of the 2 ship's they use to Cherbourg

I had a look at a June trip using the link, out on the 4th Rosslare/Bilbao €382.69 and return on the 24th Cherbourg/Rosslare €294.81. Cabins extra. Thing is the discount is the same as they give if you have a registered account with them. as soon as I put in the motorhome details they welcomed me back.
Not bad considering Stenna, Rosslare/ cherbourg return cost €345 out and €341 return August/September.

Anyone interested in the Holiday World Show Dublin, 24th to 26th January 2025. if you log into the Eventbrite ticket sales site and use the code HWSExhibitors you can get 2 free tickets. (Courtesy of Brittany Ferries) :happy:

The cages are accessible during the whole journey with a small walking area, the room is heated and the door is normally locked with a code to enter.


We can't put our dog in a kennel after past experiences. We wanted to do Spain early June before the weather gets too hot. Failing that, anywhere outside France , for a change. Just booked The DFDS ferry to Dunkirk. I know that is in France but it opens up Belgium, Holland etc. and should be a bit cooler than Spain.

Has anyone done this crossing with DFDS?

Good route , loads of food on boat, Dunkirk is way more than just a port town,a proper big seaside town good prominade and loads of cafes and restaurants, historical monument's and a decent museum , if you’re staying the aire is next to the war museum,

Some corrections and tips,
The discount is NOT the same as they give if you have a registered account with them. as soon as I put in the motorhome details they welcomed me back. ( it appears to be cookies linking the two together.


I asked the question because I wanted to book, they are not doing deals on fares at the Holiday Show, :devil:

I attempted to make the booking with the details above, but had a lot of difficulty over the last two days logging in as they ask for that, but the prices had gone up on the outbound trip, approx €70 :devil:
I phoned them again ( weekdays you get an Roi helpline, weekend it's UK ) explained my problem and he checked back and saw, where I had attempted to get a booking, so I got the same deal as I had got on the 15th.
Tip, If you are checking out prices log in or register and if find something that is good but are not quite ready to book, complete all the details as far as the pay section, then stop, that way your attempt stays on the system and they will honor it for you. :up:

They are again operating , what really is a deceitful advertising system ---
The cheapest price is still.the early bird booking ,
But that does not include a " flexi" ticket, that they are currently pushing as being free.
More slight of hand -and like their family discount, just more bullshit.

The discount arranged by this site is well appreciated, thank you for that.
