Ferry Information
Almost spoilt for choice nowadays but by far the cheapest ferry crossings seem to be with Speedferries and the LDlines service. We also operate special offers with Estival Owners Group on western channel routes - details will be supplied on booking. As with all travel, we recommend booking months in advance for the high season, particularly for overnight crossings.

Flight Information
Increasingly popular because of the low fares on Ryanair from Stansted, Liverpool and East Midlands to Limoges and Poitiers. Both airports are small and easily accessible. (No long walks from the car parks). Even Toulouse Airport is only 5 minutes from the A20 motorway direct to the heart of the Limousin, and NO motorway tolls!
