The price of a ferry from England to Spain is comparable to a budget flight and you have the advantage of being able to take your car with you. But, of course, unless you are staying in northern Spain, you'll have further transport costs when you get to Spain.

The Plymouth to Santander route takes 18 hours. The Portsmouth to Bilbao route takes 11 hours.
