    Have been tracking Brittany Ferries for years, have sailed with them a few times and I've never seen them issue any discount codes. I'd just go ahead and book it to be honest.

    FWIW We booked a motorcycle, 2 people + 3 nights in Spanish hotel, Portsmouth to Bilbao return last May.

    Price on the website ferry only £550 ish...... was more, can't remember exactly.

    Price when booked through the Brittany Ferries Holiday number ferry + 3 nights in hotel £505. Seems crazy I know but it was a tip I saw on another forum. Must be at least 3 nights in their hotel, quote the hotel codes from website. We were on a two week break but just stayed 3 nights in BF hotels, can be different hotels.

    Worth a try.

    My deal worked out more like 15% and free accommodation! It didn't make any sense to me but I was happy with it.

    Have experience of bad weather on Roscoff-Ireland route using ferry. Experience of bad weather sailing Northern Spain - Ireland is on private sail boat. The Cork - Santander route should give a longer wave pattern and rounded top. Due to the depth of water from about half way through the journey; heading South. So if similar bad weather was present on both routes, it would possibly be more comfortable on the Cork- Santander route.
    You should have good opportunity on Cork-Santander route to see dolphins, and effervescent if you come across shoals of fish. Pretty cool if that is something that interests you?
