Paul,
Me Mary & Natasha (14) are out on the 13th July for 3 weeks. As you said all you need is good food. Somewere to have a pint or 3 and get your head down. Its great for my wee man Charlie. He can stay in the van instead of a cage like Irish Ferries use. Havent got a clue were am going yet. Once I get to Cherbourg ill turn right and head down the west coast. Basically follow the sun providing there is one.
Ha, sounds like a good (ish!) plan . I hope for the same weather as last year, it can be a bit temperamental down that coast, last year was the best we"ve had in 7 years of "doing" La Vendee. We stick to the St Jean/ Sable D"Olonne area and then head inland for a few days on the way back. If it were just Herself and I, I"d venture much further down but, the two teenagers have an aversion to too much travel time ("are we there yet, I"m hungry etc.etc...") Not sure of sites yet but, heading back we"ll stay at "Vallee des Vignes", not far from Saumur, nice site, not too big, pool, bar etc. I"d like to do aries but being "a bit big" I don"t think we"d get onto many.
