Re: Ferry booked for France again
Yes, there will need to be some give and take in the choice of camp site. Can anyone suggest any camp site guides that they have found to be useful?
Thank you
Thank you

Bastille day avoid France?
Hi all,
I'm looking to go France next year and have heard that the locals go on their hols on and around Bastille day / 14 July. Can anyone confirm which weeks to avoid? is it the week either side of the 14th or 2 weeks after? All advice appreciated!
Cheers

Re: Recommendations for West coast of France?
Hi Silky,
I'd appreciate any recommendations & advice like I said not ventured out of UK, but fancy some sun etc.
Is the surfing any good at those beaches you BBQd on? Do the french have beach life guards like UK? Peace of mind with the children.
Thanks

Re: Recommendations for West coast of France?
Hi eveyone,
I'm also interested in doing simmilar next year. Must have good beaches, surf and hopefully sun, however crowded resorts do not apeal. I presume I would have to travel below Brittany? Never venture out of UK with the van before. Will read with interest your views and recommendations.

Re: camp site for Vanfest
Hi Gavin,
I would say M25, M4 (to Swindon), A419, A417, M5, M50 averaging 60 MPH approximately 3.5 - 4hrs. But will depend on how free flowing the M25 and M4 and how many comfort stops on route. My estimate is assuming reasonably free flowing traffic with out a long break.
