As you are taking your car you can fill it full of the home comforts and essentials such as food, nappies, toys. There is also plenty to do on board, including children's entertainment, cinema, swimming pool, several restaurants plus evening cabaret shows. There was even a doctor on board to advise us when the babies developed spots on the way back (luckily nothing serious) But I would recommend getting a 4 berth cabin in the upper levels as you can hear the engines lower down. We had a really relaxing time and it was the perfect start to the holiday."

"When my friend suggested a camping holiday abroad I have to say that I wasn't convinced. When we looked at the resorts and accommodation however I decided that it was something we should try. One of the best aspects was being able to choose to travel on the days that suited us the best and at times that worked for the family. No getting up in the middle of the night for a 6.00am flight!!! Another fantastic bonus was being able to go abroad in the school holidays without spending a fortune - 2 adults and 3 children for 10 days in August for under £1000, brilliant!"

"With 4 children, holidays abroad can be very expensive and finding accommodation that's big enough for the six of us is not always easy! Not if you choose to camp! By camping I mean a luxury mobile home, a campsite with two swimming pools, children's clubs and good restaurants. We can all pile into the car with boot and roof rack full to the brim. We always try to make the journey part of the holiday and have found taking an overnight ferry works really well too!"
