We were stormbound in Ostende a couple of years ago, and had to get home at the end of our holiday. We left Francis Fletcher (a boat, not a person) in the care of Robert at Ostende.
We booked a bus/ferry together. The bus went from outside Ostende station to the ferry terminal at Calais, and the ferry was the Seacat across to Dover. The National Express buses back to East Anglia were a nightmare, and when we we went back a week later we opted for one way care hire to Dover, but the same ferry/bus.
The coach trip along the coast is only an hour or two.
I'm afraid I now have no record of who we made the bookings with, but I think it was the Seacat operaters, and I know we were given a UK number at Ostende Station.
