We took our caravan over to France August 2003. We went to the Vendee, St Vincent Sur Jard.

The Vendee is second for sunshine after the South and when we where there it was 40c.

I went to the South many years ago and although it was nice it was such along drive.

The Vendee was about 6 hours drive from Caen with a couple of stops.

We only live 15 mins from Portsmouth ferry port so had no distance this end.

We are off to Florida in October but have also decided to take our caravan to Brittany for a week in July, anything to get away. Only £500 for 5 of us, thats car and caravan on the ferry and site fees.

When we went to the Vendee it was only £800 for 2 weeks, can't be bad.

If I can help let me know.
