Nick, Leaving for Brittany in the morning, is the weather good there? Getting a little excited now. Thanks

Nick, Thats brilliant news, lets hope the sun continues to shine then.

Julie we are off to Brittany in two weeks, Benodet to be exact, just hoping the weather is going to improve

James, we took the Plymouth/Roscoff ferry last year, we arrived, pulled up at the gate in lane and slept in the caravan, we didn't book or anything. When we arrived there were one or two caravans but when we got up it was quite busy. I think loading starts at about 6.00am so you will need to...

Has anyone stayed at pointe saint gilles in Benodet? We stayed at Benodet last year but at a different site, just wondered if anyone had any views on this one. thanks

The site obviously don't need the money, my husband is on a site he can stay on the same pitch for 21 days then he has to move pitches. It is guaranteed money all year round for the site, and they don't give a discount for long term booking he pays the same as any other holiday maker.

I agree Parc de Alicourts, we stayed there a few years ago, brilliant site, try and get a lakeside pitch if you can.

Barney Rubble, Lets hope so, tesco don't seem to have many good offers for their club card vouchers at the moment.

Jacqueline we stayed at this site last year and loved it, the whole area is lovely, we are going back to the same area this year, but are trying a different site, we would have happily gone to this site again

Thanks for your replies, jon-george if i am only getting 10-15k out of them i will be needing new tyres every 8 months as i average 20k per year, and that is just back and fore to work. We haven't noticed it sitting low on the back, will have a look next time we tow. thanks again

we are staying in pointe saint gilles - Benodet. The beach is just across the road and town it a short stoll. Wouldn't call it a busy town, but has everything you need. see link http://www.stgilles.fr/GB/index.html

Got a 54 2.0 TDCI diesel, up until now have been sliding all over the place, tow a 1450kg sterling sapphire. Just had an mot and it failed on tyres - suprise suprise. Will be putting Goodyear tyres on, just wondering what tyres do other mondeo drivers use? Thanks

John We are the same as Richard, we have used green flag ever since we have had a caravan which is about 10 years, used them a few times, never had a problem. Prices are reasonable too even for the whole family

Also you must try the assault course through the trees in the dark

Sam We also stayed at Port de Plaissance, lovely site. The indoor swimming pool is brill, you can sit in the sun just outside the indoor pool. The outdoor pool was a cold. There is plenty to do, we played boules, did archery, played tennis. There is a supermarket within walking distance, you...
