Hi all

can anyone recommend some sites with beach access?

Preferably not too large! Not fussed about entertainment, though would like to be able to walk to the beach. This is our first time towing in france, so any recommendations will be helpful. Not sure about what areas to go to either, though we are going for 2 weeks and intend to do 5 sites-we like variety!

Cheers all

Hi all.

I thik that we are only probably get down as far as the Loire, or maybe the Vendee (?)

As weve never been before we arent sure of how far we wanna travel between sites.

Any more recommendations or advice gratefully recieved.

We've stayed at Baie d'Aunis in La Tranche sur Mer, Charante Maritime about 6 times now. The drive is not too strenuous from Cherbourg & we even wild camped on the beach near Mont St Michel once on the way down...lovely.

It's a small, very clean 4 star site with great swimming pool & good value pizzeria. Pretty quiet too up to the end of June. It's very nearly on the beach with just a short walk across a car park.

We are keen on the site as it offers excellent access for us windsurfers.

Hope this helps
