Holidays are a very personal thing but if there's one thing I've learned you don't have to pay a lot to enjoy yourself.
2 Adults, 1 child, 'VillaNova' mobile home on the Atlantic coast Vendee, 12 nights then a further 4 nights just outside Paris for a bit of shopping and a couple of days at EuroDisney, May - June 2006........ with KEYCAMP
£392
Downside is having to take my daughter out of school a week early to hit the pre-holiday price band.
If you have a family and don't mind the drive these holidays are second to non, they are excellent value, the sites have always been clean, well maintained and there is loads for children to do.
We've been doing the France thing for the past seven years but I can't ever remember paying so little.

I agree...We paid for our holiday this year with tesco vouchers..We are going bank holiday august for 2 weeks..Including 2 days in disneyland and the rest of the stay in Brittany..We had to take our daughter out of school for the first week back at school but it's the first time we have took her out of school.(She is in Junior school)...But yes it can be a great price and beats holidaying in a caravan in the Uk as you are seeing a different culture and usually nicer weather...0

Hey that sounds great, would be interested in checking that out - do you have the website or link?0

We too love caravanning in France, but can't take advantage of the out of hols prices as I'm a teacher - no option to take a week off,, unfortunately.
We went May 1/2 term with Eurocamp, 10 nights cost £1000... 10 nights in Aug £1800!!! The caravans are excellent. eurocamp.co.uk and keycamp.co.uk also canvas holidays and Thomson do 'alfresco' which is their eurocamp-type arm thomsonalfresco.co.uk - you get a lovely bit of decking & a patio heater with their accommodation!!!0 -
£392 sounds good - where's the link please?0
