It is a tough one, when I look at the numbers for just two of us, say 2 weeks in the Southern Ardeche on a 4 star site, thats £400, then the Ferry £50, also 4 overnight stops £200, fuel £200 and road tolls £100, grand total of £950!, and that's without factoring in the cost of you kit, which over it's life must work out at £100 per year if using a tent, more so for a caravan, and even more for a Motorhome, so your talking £500 per person for a two week holiday, it should be cheaper, and of course can be, it dosn't seem to add up when you compare it to a package deal in the Sun, but there is just somthing special about doing your own thing, and not having to listen to some holiday rep, banging on about where to go and what to do, all that I know is that doing what we do now, is cheaper than going with Eurocamp/Keycamp, and cheaper than hiring a static, so for now I am quite happy to blow a grand on what is a bloody good holiday.

A few years ago we hired a beautiful secluded villa in Moraira, Costa Blanca. It had 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, aircon and a private pool. It was heaven...for the first week. The second week, the boys were keen to run around, play with other children, go off on their bikes, go to the park etc, they became bored by the peace and tranquility. The nearest beach was very crowded, and it was also very hot which gave my eldest prickly heat, really irritating. So great fro me, but not so good for the children. We hired it through holidayrentals, they have some great properties.
I have to say that airports drive me a little crazy nowadays. Having been an air stewardess before I had my boys, I really get frustrated with all the queueing that goes on. Our journey this year to France was great, straight on the ferry, no hold ups either way to or from Royan. 9 euros in tolls on the way down and 6 on the way back. Plus we live 10mins from Portsmouth so have an easy journey to the ferry.
If I could, I'd do my trip to France every summer, and then fit in a luxury holiday around Christmas and New Year. I'd love to take my boys to the Far East, to a 5* all inclusive resort. But I need to win the lottery first!
