You can park there after the last ferry has left at night. Depending on the time of your ferry??
 
Same ferry - 7th January

Just reserved the last cabin on this sailing (7 Jan) It takes two nights! Anyone experienced this with a stop in Roscoff. Any tips for getting to Portugal from Bilbao? Slightly worried about the crossing in January:-( but late to make a decision.

Yes I had a two night crossing last Winter. The Roscoff stop is during the early hours for a crew change and you'll hardly be aware of it.

Does it make it a lot more expensive, Chris? The ticket I mean.
 
The ferry sails at 22:30 so no food needed before bedtime. Then a whole day's meals and arrival 07:45 the following morning - so no breakfast needed until after disembarkation. Especially if the weather is rough! I think I will be taking a kettle into the cabin in any case.

As mentioned you can park after last ferry has left, but this could be after 11pm.

We like a bit of peace & quiet & to relax early evening after popping out to the pub.

We use Portsmouth CU1 at 50.815709 -1.090989 for a good night’s kip.

It’s also only 3mins from the ferry.
