I'm thinking of taking the family to France next year in the summer. I've never done it before. Me, the wife and 2 kids 12 & 8. I will be driving and want to take in Disneyland & possibly Paris, with a stay at the coast, perhaps Brittany. Could anybody give me any tips, or is it a bad idea. What accomodation should I look at, camping, motels, hotels. We would like somewhere during the coast stay with a pool and the usual holiday stuff such as kids activities. Is a ferry or the tunnel the best/cheapest option for crossing the channel?
Any advice will be extremely helpful.
Thanks
We have gone all over the country with Canvas Holidays. Prices are pretty good and their reps are 1st class. Many sites have children's reps as well. They charge a bit extra for overnight stops but if you do 3 nights you only pay the standard charge. They have pretty good coverage of the whole of France and the site at Berny Riviere is about 45-60 mins from Disney and 30 mins from Parc Asterix. The sites on the Vendee are very good and I can recomend Prairie. They also have sites in the South and all over the middle of France. Canvas do tents (which are huge) and also mobile homes of various standards. If I was going to the Med I would opt for a tent as they at least get a breeze through them.
Thanks folks
we went with eurocamp in october,taking our 2 sons aged 10 & 4,we stayed in a 2 bed mobile home
we stayed @ berny riviere ,its a gorgeous location ,and is ,as stated above only about 45 - 50 mins to Disneyland paris,a very easy drive too
there is a site closer to Disney but we wanted the more peaceful countryside location of berny and we werent disappointed
we are going to go back next year in fact
