Hi Soup Dragon,

Thank you very much for the heads up in these places, I think we will wait until we are touring in the proposed motor home in a few years time to do the Picos justice.

Thanks again

Bob

Hi Chezza23 you certainly will see lots. I love the change of landscape once you get south towards Spain, it's a brilliant drive, I love it! And Argeles is fab too with lots going on in the surrounding area. Make sure you visit Collier just down the coast, it's beautiful. If you walk to the port you can get a boat ride there. Takes about 10/15 mins and as you come into Collier it blows you away. I'd live there tomorrow! Have fun

I have fond memories of Argelès and Collioure as I went there on a school trip aged 17, and loved it, first time away without my folks! I stayed at Camping Le Soleil, looked at reviews and it seems it's huge now compared to when I was there, but that was 1988.

It is a busy, but beautiful bit of coastline. A strong wind, great if you like any kind of water sports.

We are off to La Garangeoire, Vendee in August this year. Kids are desperate to go back to Puy Du Fou.

I remember going to the Vendee as a child. It's on the list now we have our campervan. A lot of people seem to love that area on here

We like it because it's a four hour drive after getting off the Portsmouth-Caen ferry. Going overnight so will be there by lunchtime! Have driven far down the west cost before (almost to Biarritz!) and it was just too much for the kids, even with an overnight stop.

Have a lovely time Mrs G!

We get ferry from Hull to Zeebrugge on 30th July and then drive down to Provence. Not taking the caravan this year and staying in an old Olive Mill in a provencal village. Daughter coming with us in car and son and his Girlfriend flying out for a week. Really looking forward to it.
