Cheap Day Returns.
I read somewhere that Ferry companies can make you pay the full standard price if you only use it one way. I'm sure if you rang them and explained that your car had broken down or something that would suffice. well how would they know.
It may well be cheaper to buy a day return, but P&O have that covered in their terms of business. If you do not use the return half then they will charge your card with the single fare for the day and time of travel. When, I last used the train from Narbonne they had an arrangement with the ferry companies for an inclusive rate which was heavily discounted. It may be worth checking if this option is still available or if not driving to Boulogne and using Speedferries may be a cheapest alternative.

Well, you're not going to get much cheaper than £45 are you, so even if you found a day return for a few quid less, is it worth it for the risk of being charged for the diff?
Take it.
Hi
Just seen your query. If you could get to Boulogne for 9.00 there is a 9.50 from Boulogne to Dover with Speedferries which costs £28.00 single. Vehicle + up to 5 passengers. See their website www.speedferries.com for timetable. I selected Sunday 10th of June.
Good luck

Did you try Eurotunnel? From my recent experiences Eurotunnel and Speedferries seem to offer the lowest fares.
In June I have found single fares on Eurotunnel for Euros 30, which is rather cheaper than pounds 45 on P&O.

It is advertised as a single fare but only sold on the basis that it is purchased as part of a return journey lasting no more than 36 hours, or to put it another way go out early one morning return late the next.
I use them frequently for flying visits.
Also beware of purchasing the two tickets and using only the outbound leg, if you do this (for any reason) they will debit your card with the difference between the 60 euros you have paid and the standard single fare of around 300 euros.
