We always used to take the train - but lately it seems to be much more expensive so we often go by ferry instead. As you say the longer crossing can actually be a much needed rest for the driver and you can also use the time to grab some food meaning you don't have to stop elsewhere on the journey.

From what I have found they don't seem to have many offer or sales on the Eurotunnel these days. I suffer from seasickness - I just make sure I take a couple of tablets before the journey and haven't had any issues thank goodness!

We find that DFDS are often cheaper then P&O, not always though so worth pricing up both.

Hope that helps.
