When you book with Angling Lines the cost of the Channel crossing is included in the price – but the route you take is your choice. The cost will vary according to the route chosen, the date, the time of day and the type of vehicle. For example longer sea crossings can cut down on driving time but tend to be more expensive than the shorter routes. They are also less frequent.

To help you make an informed decision below are details of the ports and crossings available. There’s also a table showing distances and approximate driving times to our lakes from the ports.

So take a look at the options below to help you decide... but please don’t forget we’re always here for advice. We travel these routes ourselves on a regular basis so we’re in a good position to advise you.
