Yeh i know the route, and my Mrs is more than willing to take the wheel if needed. Never driven abroad no but i have been assured once iv been round the 1st rounderbout from the port 18 times i will get the jist of things. Yes i know the route. Seems pretty simple all the way. Toll roads all the way. I have driven some lengthy journeys before now with the children.


Don't forget to leave a review of the French and other European campsites you have visited!

I think basically like most people have said, Stop as soon as i don't feel in control. Getting there is one thing but getting there alive is another.

I travel down from Sheffield every year. I always go chunnel about 5:30 in the morning so I can get down to Kent in 4 hours or so without hitting traffic on the M25.

I then get my head down in the aire at Baie de la Somme for an hour before a stopover in the Loire which I feel comfortably in my limit (aged 57).

20 years ago I thought nothing of going as far as the Dordogne in one hop.
