Common questions about Devon to Portsmouth Ferry Port transfers

How long does it take to drive from Devon to Portsmouth Ferry Port?
From Newton Abbot the drive is around 2 hr 49 min. From Torquay add about 10 minutes. We always build in extra time for motorway traffic and recommend leaving earlier for Bank Holiday weekends.
How much does a transfer from Devon to Portsmouth Ferry Port cost?
Prices start from £364 for a saloon car from the nearest Devon town. The exact price depends on your pickup postcode — you'll see the fixed price before you book. A £15 late-night surcharge applies for pickups between 23:00 and 07:00.
How early should I arrive at Portsmouth Ferry Port?
Most ferry and cruise operators ask passengers to check in 1.5–3 hours before sailing. We factor the full drive time plus a comfortable buffer into the recommended pickup time when you book.
Can you accommodate large amounts of cruise luggage?
Yes. Our saloon car takes up to 3 large bags; our 6 seater takes 4; our 8 seater takes 5. For larger groups with lots of luggage, the 8 seater is the best choice. You'll see exact capacities in the booking form.
Can I book a return transfer from Portsmouth Ferry Port back to Devon?
Yes — tick "Add a return journey" in the booking form to capture both legs at once. For cruise returns, let us know your ship's scheduled arrival time and we'll plan around it.
What if my ferry or cruise ship is delayed?
For return pickups, let us know your vessel's estimated arrival and we'll monitor it. If the arrival time changes significantly, contact us and we'll adjust — we aim to be as flexible as possible.
Is a private transfer worth it compared to driving and parking?
For cruises of 7 days or more, port parking typically costs £70–£150+. A return transfer from Devon is often comparable — and you arrive relaxed at the port entrance rather than dragging luggage from a remote car park. For day trips or short ferry crossings, parking may be cheaper.
Do you cover all postcodes in Devon?
We currently serve Newton Abbot (TQ12), Torquay (TQ1), Chudleigh (TQ13), Totnes (TQ9) and Ashburton (TQ13). Enter your postcode in the booking form to get an exact price.
