Ferry trip was 4 or 5 hours, queuing for the ferry was a pain in the ar*e, nearly 2 hours pushin & shovin... the other thing I've never seen before on any ferry was the amount people taking dogs on, which would be ok it they cleaned up after 'em  :roll:.
Anyway the Island is superb, roads are perfect for Tiggers lots of potholes & gravel if you go off the main roads. Not too much traffic but we went in September when the kids are back at school.
Definitely worth a visit if you fancy somewhere different.
