BY FERRY

P&O and Brittany Ferries take various routes England to France. My preferred Route for a maximum-time-in-Rodes visit is to drive from CAEN, on the French coast. It takes about 12 hrs driving time to Rodes (plus any stops) - and via this route is approx 650 miles. I go, as the crow flies to Orleans, where I join the Autoroute (A71/E11) down to Perpignan.

Excellent AIRES along the route for stopping. It costs something but gets one there quickly if that is what is wanted. Easiest exit from the autoroute is Perpignan 2. from where you follow signs to Andorra (and Prades). Further instructions and maps are sent to you after final payment
is received.

Spain. It is also worthwhile to make your arrangements for hiring a car in England, rather than in the country to which you are going.
