Question for Cruisin Linda

[gillhalfpint]

About £94 on the train to Southampton Central - don't know which of the 3 stations is nearest the port - so would not want too much luggage. Might need a taxi from there to the port, don't know Southampton at all. Wish there was a port nearer the Midlands.

Southampton Central is the train station nearest the port. You can see where you need to go from there but it's not very practical dragging cases that far especially as some of the berth entrances involve you walking much further than if you could get direct access to the terminal. A taxi ride is the best option imo - about £5/7?

Thanks. We were thinking about trying a P and O mini cruise in December to try them, but looks like we have to add around £100 to the fare to get there. Will check up late summer what is on offer ex UK. May try Fred, but want to give them both a go.

There are taxis waiting outside the station. About a 5 minute ride. DH can't remember how much the fare was :rolleyes: but not much.

Gill.

Have a look at Eavesway coaches. £92 return for us in the North West, will be cheaper for you.

 

They are a great service, used them twice now.

I'd be up for this as well.

It would be even better if it popped in to Newcastle on the way up!;):D

 

You beat me to it, Vera. Hope Thomson are reading these posts. Fred Olsen do and post replies!!

I will consider the coach if we do Southampton. We had a free coach to Harwich to join Spirit for Fire and Ice and that worked well. Jotted down so when we come to do the planning I will have info to hand. Cheers.
