we are going to France on the 29th August for a week and staying in a delux mobile home and it has cost us £280 for 5 of us, at that price we're leaving the van at home

Who have you booked that with Di?

That sounds like what i am looking for.

could you post a few details

 


we're booked to go to Chateau des Ormes with Eurocamp it is currently priced at:

 

Date Nights Accommodation Web Saving Web Price per party  
29/08/2008 7 Tent £10.00 £341.00
29/08/2008 7 2 Bedrm Comfort £60.00 £476.00
29/08/2008 7 3 Bedrm Deluxe £60.00 £602.00
29/08/2008 7 2 Bedrm Extra £60.00 £518.00

we got it at £280 as we booked it in September last year, it may be worth getting a last minute one.  We first went to the Des Ormes 1st September 2006 and we got it for £250 including ferry, we booked about 6 weeks before we went.  This year we didn't get the ferry included but managed to get a special deal with P&O

Join your local CC centre. They will have holiday rallies which are usually on an all singing all dancing site and will get a good discount on the standard fee. You usually don't need to book as early with rallies either.

Well with this petrol strike next weekend I think a lot of people may be staying at home leaving a lot of empty pitches.  May make thsoe with high prices think again.

Well thanks for all the help and advise we have just booked Trencreek Farm Holiday Park for 9 nights from the 16th August on inluding the bank holiday. Reviews look good and for £200 notes I thought that was reasonable.

 

Thanks Again

Ben

Hi Diane.

We have done France with motorhomes, but this will be the first time towing.  Going for 7 weeks, and weeks 5 and 6 are at a booked site in the midi-pyrenees.

Must admit that I have always been impressed by the freedom of parking, compared to the UK.

I bought a satnav at the end of last year, mainly with France in mind.  It has facilities to tell it we are a LORRY, to help avoid too narrow roads.  It also has provision to avoid toll roads.  To be sure, however, OH will monitor progress with conventional road atlas.   Naturally, if we do go wrong, I will immediately agree that it is the fault of the satnav.

Bertie.
