Many thanks for that, SEB! That does sound an excellent way to get there - IF I can get a bargain advance fare to London from Newcastle... Also, I'm thinking more of early May now but I imagine the timetable would hold good.
Thanks, again!
Many thanks, Mike - much appreciated! Yes, I certainly WOULD like that timetable - it would be VERY valuable info. The route still leaves me with a looong coach trip to Plymouth - unless I can get a great train fare bargain - but at least I wouldn't have the Pamplona backtrack.
Can I ask, when...
Thanks for that, SEB! This is really interesting as I must confess the downside of my current plan is exactly that backtracking from Pamplona which I'd rather not have to do...
Cheers for the tip - I'll certainly follow that up! :-)
Hi! I'm a 49yr old Scot planning to walk the Frances from late April, 2016. Looking for suggestions on getting to St. Jean without flying. Ferry from Portsmouth/Plymouth to Santander then coach/bus via Pamplona?
