You can cross to the continent by taking the Eurotunnel, the ferry Dover - Calais and the ferry Harwich - Hoek van Holland. The ferry Dover - Calais is the cheapest option and is also faster then the other ferry. This is because the boat trip via Dover - Calais is much shorter.
For saving money, take a five day round trip, which requires you to take the first possible trip back after a stay of maximal 120 hours on the continent. Such a round trip is cheaper then a standard round trip, which allows you to stay longer. Below a possible schedule is shown. You can depart Friday and arrive at the camping site in Leende at night. Next day the main con site in Heeze is open to visitors at 4 pm (both sites are six km apart).
The round trip costs £ 85 for one car with up to 9 passengers. If you can get a minibus, you should try to get as much furs in it as possible.
