Ferry Newcastle/Hull to Holland with a 2 year old

Hello

Has anyone taken the overnight ferry from either Hull or Newcastle to Holland with a 2 year old? I'm fancying a stay at a Landal and considering this option as:

  • I think it would be more fun for my 2 year old
  • It would remove the need to hire a car abroad
  • It's slightly cheaper than flying
  • Easier to chuck everything in the car than pack bags for flights

I'm leaning towards Newcastle as the ferry times are better although it's a longer drive...

However, part of me is wondering if it's a terrible idea and she'll just be seasick and none of us will get any sleep? Should we just fly?

Has anyone done this, or a similar overnight ferry crossing, with a young toddler - and if so, what were your experiences?

Thanks

@Brefugee Thanks for the suggestion but that's a 5 hour drive in good traffic, it would br hell for us all
