We travelled on the Pont L'Abbee from Plymouth to Roscoff & back. The first trip was an overnight crossing and we had a cabin. Beds were very small and the pillows smelt revolting! The worst thing was that every time the ship lurched to to one side there was an incredibly loud creaking which made it almost impossible to sleep.... more

Brittany Ferries is pure value for money. I travelled Ireland - france by car ferry for over 16 years now. For the first few years i travelled on Irish Ferries and the service was Terrible. I got fed up with Irish Ferries and a friend told me about Brittany Ferries. I said I'd give them a go and I am... more

Made outward & return trips (July 2007) on the ‘Pont l'Abbé’ on the Plymouth-Roscoff route. The outward trip was overnight.

Pont Aven is a super ship! rough crossing in the bay of biscay but otherwise a fantastic mini break and excellent value. Stay in the outside cabins as they have fab porthole windows that make the cabins appear brighter. more

My partner and I have been on two New Year Mini-Cruises aboard the Pont Aven and found the ship to be very good considering its just a car ferry. The first time we went we booked an inside cabin but, upon arrival, found the cabin to be clean but extremely small. We upgraded to a room with a window which... more

We chose Brittany Ferries (Ferry and Gite) for our family holiday in France this year. Travelling on the Cork to Roscoff route on the MV Pont-Aven, the holiday really did start the moment we stepped on board. Brittany Ferries pride themselves on their food and this was immediately apparent. There were three places to eat; the main restaurant, the self-service... more

We took the car to France for New Year and had a terrible crossing both ways. The journey out provided a basic but adequate cabin but what was really worrying was the male member of staff who barged into our cabins in the morning without knocking to wake us up - clearly he had some sort of pass key. This... more
