i notice a couple of you have been or are going to head for disneyland paris.
can i ask is the drive a long one? i got a 15mth old and a 3.5yr old and not all that good sat in the back of the car for a long time. i was thinking of using eurostar as i have enough nectar points i can gather that the les etangs is the closest site but how far away is it from DLPR?

thanks for any help

It's about a 15 minute drive...we went last summer and it was really hot...we got our tickets which were on the disneyland website.I think they were 10% cheaper.We bought them twice now online and they worked out cheaper...They also had hopper tickets the same price as a disney ticket last time.The drive isn't too bad depending where you drive from and when you go etc..we have no air con and it was in july when it was red hot...awful journey....plus we drove from up yorkshire...Not so bad if you live near dover...My children are 4 and 12....

It wasnt too bad but my children are older,10 & 4 yrs old

If you plan to stop off regularly it shouldnt be a problem

we live in south wales and so drove to dover in the early hours ! before catching an early ferry

but plan to use the eurotunnel this year

just checked on https://www.theaa.com and it states

Your route details
From: Calais,France

To: Touquin,France ( les etangs)
Distance: 323.2 km

Time: 3 hr 24 min

ah not such a good deal then ,Id forgotten they were only 3 /4 night breaks

im not sure id bother going to portugal if it were only for 3 nights TBH

Normally I'd agree.. but it was gonna take my mam.. if we go away at the same time cause of the dogs it'll have to be a short trip! So 3 nights would be ideal!

i live in brighton so its not really that far from dover about 2 maybe 3 hours.. usually we go to clacton on sea as i drive for 2 hours stop then drive for another 2 hours an we're there.
i've never been on the eurotunnel yet believe it or not so it will be a whole new experience for me :eek:

d'ya know you all sound like pro's on disneyland whats a hopper?

20mins is perfect even my 15mth can manage that without throwing things at my head is that from the site to dlpr?

yup its 20 mins max from the les etangs site to DLRP

I am no expert lol only been the once ! got all my info from here and the dibb sites etc

a hopper means you can "hop" from the park to the studios on the same day as many times as you like

though we didnt bother with the studios last time we went, as heard there wasnt much for younger children ,and as we were only there for one day wanted to go on all the rides in disneyland park !

We went to Kessingland last year, 4 nights for £38 in Oct. really enjoyed it. Didn't bother with the entertainment passes and there was no service charge!

Is anyone gonna post the online codes again?

What did you think of Lowestoft (be gentle with me)?

smallblueplanet

Ah, well we only went to Mimsmere, Strumpshaw Fen & down to Sutton Hoo - very enjoyable though (collected lots of sweet chestnuts at Sutton Hoo!). The caravan park was right on the coast (we had a bit of a stroll) and it had a good chippy!
