I'm planning the main holiday for 2011 already, and would love to take the van to southwest France. Has anyone gone this far afield and can you offer any advice?
I thought about an overnight ferry to Bilbao in Spain, and then to drive a few miles north to the great beaches in the Bordeaux region. Would the extra cost be prohibitive or are there cheap deals to be had? Maybe I would drive back and cross Calais-Dover, but then there are tolls and extra fuel cost.
I have just got the Eurocamp Independent brochure that has all the sites for tourers in it. It seems great - pity I left it in the van! Must go fetch..
