Specifically designed and built for Brittany Ferries, the Armorique was introduced to their fleet in 2009. Carrying up to 1,500 passengers and 470 cars, the ship follows a modern design with décor that beautifully captures the lights, colours and space of the Brittany region and its maritime heritage. There's plenty of space to move around on board (both inside and on deck) with an open plan feel, and lots of areas to relax, including a quiet zone.
Armorique offers passengers a choice of 248 cabins - all of which are en-suite and air conditioned as well over 300 reclining seats spread throughout the ship. There are also a number of cabins adapted for disabled passengers.
Armorique features a self-service restaurant offering a fantastic choice of foods from around the world, as well as French favourites such as mouth-watering minute steaks, cooked to your liking on the spot! There's also a salad buffet, great choice of desserts, and drinks, including wines and beers to accompany your meal. This all takes place in a very light and spacious dining area with a choice of tables to suit your group size as well as panoramic views. The children's soft play area is also situated within this area, so is a great place for families. Serving sandwiches, cakes, pastries and hot and cold drinks, Le Café, not only offers a delicious choice of snacks, it's also a great place to relax and enjoy time with your fellow passengers in a relaxed atmosphere with a number of flat screen televisions and plenty of space and seating. Just a long from the restaurant area, the main lounge bar continues Armorique's open plan feel offering further seating as well as a quiet zone. Serving everything from the finest French wines to cocktails as well as a choice of cold and hot drinks, this light and airy area is ideal for relaxing over a drink and enjoying the terrific views. There are also a number of flat screen televisions showing big sports matches and news updates.
Perfect for gifts, souvenirs, or just a treat for yourself, Armorique boutiques offer a fine range of spirits, wine, tobacco, perfumes and cosmetics, leather goods, confectionery, toys, fashion, decoration, souvenirs, newspapers, games, cameras, sunglasses, jewellery and much more! All are at great prices, and certainly worth a browse. Purchases made on board may be paid for in Euros or Sterling. Payment can be made in cash, by credit or debit card.

I did not go to Brittany
"Good crossing, thanks."
Great to be back on the Pont Aven after too many years not visiting France! Very friendly staff, good catering, lots of space for everyone on board. Extra entertainment provided by the hi speed jets which kept flying past!
"Plain sailing "
Very pleasant even with a rough crossing
"Plymouth to Roscoff trip"
Confusion when boarding from Plymouth. Surely as a safety aspect it would be better if foot passengers embarked before cars etc embark?
"Roscoff to Plymouth 17 9 22"
Approximately 1 hour delay leaving boat due to technical problems
"Plymouth to Roscoff return "
Very good across all areas
"Longer trip than advertised"
Our trip from Roscoff to Plymouth was advised our booking email to be around 6 hours 10 minutes in duration. The journey took a whole 2 hours longer than this as the ferry was only moving at 12 knots. It was a real drag of a journey and we were extremely late getting to our destination because of it. Not a route I would travel on again.
"Great way to travel to and from Ireland "
Beautiful ships. Quick and uncomplicated boarding and arrival. Friendly staff
"passport delays uk "
Arrival times not as stated , Long delays in passport control in UK
"trip to France"
ship was clean staff professional and courteous facilities on board where excellent and the food was of a good standard, the only point I would make is passport control was a little slow but that of course is not down to the ferry operation
"Roscoff to Plymouth "
Overall excellent trip. The cabin was clean and ready for us. The staff in shops and at the restaurant were was polite and useful. Ship was relatively on time but british customs are a problem on this line... take far too much time and waited over an hour to get through. Systems like Eurotunnel are much more efficient and would be nice to see something similar with brittany ferries
"A pleasure to be aboard the Armorique "
Boarding in both directions was easy. Unfortunately there were no cabins left for the night crossing but there was plenty of room to stretch out on on of the many padded benches.
"Great car ferry experience"
Friendly and efficiently run Fench ship. All went to plan. Clean boat, comfy cabins. We traveled in Peak season but the boat never felt overcrowded. Food and drink prices not excessive.
"Traveling Roscoff - Plymouth"
Everything was fine, except the noise of the air-conditioning in the cabin of the night ferry was terrible.
"Travel France Ireland Summer 2022"
Very positive experience, since the booking to the travel. to be underline the level of cleaning of the cabin, very high.
"Smooth sailing"
I travelled from Plymouth to Roscoff and back again. I was a foot passenger. I used the overnight ferry from Plymouth. I had booked a cabin. A bit disappointed to see on kettle or coffee/tea making facilities nor a hairdryer in the cabin. TBH I was expecting that, Ferry arrived on time. On the way back I travelled during the day. All staff were lovely and friendly. We were a bit late getting back but maybe the wind was not behind us! They did have plenty of free entertainment for children which is really good as it can be a bit boring for them. They also had 2 cinemas with I think 3 different films available which is a good time killer!

"All good"
Not too clean. No soap at start of journey in ladies loo. Food was OK and not expensive at all.
"Great service"
Comfortable cabin on our overnight crossing from Plymouth. Breakfast was adequate and well presentecy. Very quickly off the boat, through customs and on our way. The return trip was just as efficient. The boat was not too busy and there were plenty of seats available. Duty free was quite expensive so glad we'd bought in the supermarket on the way home! Top tip, rather than but the expensive mineral water on board just ask the bar staff to top up your water bottles. They are happy to do so. Off reasonably quickly in Plymouth and soon heading home.
"bon voyage"
