Hi BarryD
we re going for 10 days in june, maybe a car hire would be a good option but i just thought initially its nice to not have a car when your driving the rest of the year day in day out
but i will take your comments on board thanks for replying!!!

We were in that area this year and I don't think it would be very easy without a car. The site isn't very central so unless you plan to spend the whole holiday on the campsite I would strongly recommend hiring a car.

Hi Lorraine just seen this message, haven't been on for a while. Would strongly agree with previous posts. We were there summer 08, on a different site just up the road from your campsite. There is soo much to see and do in ther area, and the car is real handy for the local shops.
As you come out of your campsite turn left and travel about 1/2 mile or so, and there is a nice wood fired pizzaria/restaurnat, a good bakery with all sorts of nice breads pastries etc, and a little further up the road is a very handy supermarket.
The road outside your camp site leading into Frejus is fairly busy so probably safer in a car rather than walking to the shops.

This has brought back memories of last years hols :tup and the thought of not getting back this year due to euro/£ and current crunch. :(

If you need any other info just ask

Without wishing to destroy the French economy single handed (!) might I suggest you try Holiday Autos for your car hire because you will be paying in Sterling rather than in Euros, and this will at least keep the price straightforward without dealing with the variations in currency between your hire and the time of your visit.

I agree, we have been there 3 times and couldn't have managed without the car as there are lots of nice places to visit.Also the site is quite big so a car makes getting aorund much easier.You could always drive from the uk?
