We did the Padirac caves when we went in 2006.
Val, mine are absolutely NOT bothered about campsites, organised activities, or anything like that, and their idea of hell would be being forced to go to a teens 'club' or something on holiday, and for many reasons a gite is absolutely the best reason for us, with our own pool. I have no qualms about that decision for us as a family this year.
Will check out the accrobranche things, sounds like a good idea.
Sarlat for a mooch will be on the list.
Castelnaud we really liked last time, they had a sort of theatrical comedy thing on, all in French, but very slap-stick and the kids all laughed like drains despite not understanding a word.
Probably won't go swimming anywhere public, but will probably hire canoes.
Thanks all for the tips, keep them coming!
Atko, we've dipped in and out of France since that fateful wet Loire trip. We've done A trip to Europe each year, but not always summers. Where will you go next year?!

Hi Amanda,
Nice to hear from you and hope you and family are well. Yes, I remember that trip in Loire very well which wasn't easy with young kids at the time.
Anyway, as said I think the family is just sick of France, it's a beautiful country and it's served us very well over the year. Like you, as the kids have got older their expectations of travel have got higher, and the willingness to camp less. As time goes by, you realise the children at the campsites getting younger!.
We now accept that we will have to fly somewhere and stay in a self contained apartment. We are heading off to Sorrento, Italy in October, lots to do and see for whole family.
We have been on some city breaks with kids which they have really enjoyed i.e. Rome, Amsterdam etc. The plan over next few years if to have a city break, week somewhere in Europe and a 2 week holiday somewhere further afield.
Finally, it's crept up on us but as the oldest is 15, I've decided we need to make the most of our holidays as a family, before she decides she no longer wants to go with us.
