Hi, we are travelling to France from Pembrokeshire in August for 2 weeks with 2 children (age 6 & 10) We were meant to go 3 years ago but COVID stopped us.
Any experienced France travellers.. could you answer these questions?
1. Should we cross from Dover to Calais and back or avoid it like the plague?? Price is important to a smooth journey is number 1 priority. Where is the best place to cross?
2. Should we book a 1 night stay somewhere near the ferry or just head straight to a site?
3. We don't want to travel too far. Thinking Normandy or Brittany. Are these nice areas for families? Anyone know any good sites in particular? Like friendly sites with some facilities like a pool and play area.
4. Are there any good sites around Euro Disney? Might go there for 3-4 nights.
5. Are there any amazing tips with regards to times, sites, costs, things to bring, weather etc that you think would be crucial to tell an enthusiastic France novice??
Thank you
Marc
