Hi We've always recieved a CCI when we've booked with C & CC but so far, none of the sites we've stayed at have ever asked for it or a passport. We've stayed on sites for stopovers that we've arranged ourselves and sites booked through the club, it hasn't made a difference. If you have booked...

As Trucker says, there is a carpark by the port but it is now on the left as you drive out of the port, it is smaller than the old one on the right which they seem to use for staff parking now. We stayed there last year as we were on the early morning ferry, it was ok and fairly quiet but it...

Yes we've stayed at Plymouth a few times, plenty of space to park up but I don't think the facilities are open - other than a loo. I'd check the ferry timetable and arrive after the last boat has gone and you'll be fine. We always travel in school holidays and have always had company...several...

Hi, we stayed at Huttopia last year and I agree, it is quite expensive (around £50 per night for 4 then). I also looked at 4 Vents which is around 40 miles from Versailles and the trains from Touran to Paris were more expensive especially as we wanted to spend 2 of our days in the city. From...

Maybe they've been busy with the school holidays and the wedding, have you tried using the online booking system - very easy and we've had no problems with it so far.

I showed this to my husband earlier, he then started looking at the calendar to see which dates we are traveling over easter. My giggles gave it away and then he saw the date of the post..... Although, I read the other day that the EU want to ban petrol & diesel cars in cities by 2050 so you...

We've recently booked our August holiday and went through the all the various prices first. It came out cheaper to book with the CC&C than booking direct, the site and elec were less and so was the ferry due to the offer - 50% off the van on the return crossing in high seaon (if booked before...

You're welcome :) Not sure if you've been to Paris before so thought I'd mention: Versailles palace was very busy when we visited, we queued for about an hour just for the tickets. We visited on one of the days that the fountains were switched off as it was so much cheaper for the 4 of us...

Hi We stayed there for 5 nights last August. The location is great for visiting the palace which is about 30mins walk away. Porchfontaine RER station is 6 mins walk away with trains every 20 mins or so into Paris tickets were about 6 euros return. The site was quite full with lots of different...

I saw them tonight too, not as bright as last and alot lower in the sky but I was really chuffed to see both :)

Hi How far north have you got to drive? We've arrived back on the Caen and Roscoff ferries that dock around 9.30pm and driven up to Derbyshire, we now prefer not to do it. If you've had a long day and then a six hour crossing the drive home seems to take forever. If we do it again we would...

I'm glad I saw this thread. I checked the Nasa site earlier and was just in time to *** out and see the space station just before 7pm...luckily there was a gap in the clouds. I'll have another look tomorrow about 7.23 as it looks like it should be clear.

Hi Jim I've just been looking at the Camping & Caravan club website, it does seem busy until after the 25th. Although at Easter they are showing grass pitches with or without electric available at Sandringham...its just over 100 miles from Derby and a lovely site (depends how much you want to...

Hi Last year we did that crossing and stayed at a site near Pegasus Bridge, less than 10 mins from the ferry. Would use again, we faxed the booking to the site and the lady owner stayed in the office until we arrived. There's a few details on Eurocampings website and I used google maps to work...

Hi We've stayed here twice but it was over 5 years ago, before the indoor pool was added. We travelled from Caen, which took about 2 hours, as it was a cheaper crossing than St Malo which is about 22 miles away as you say. From St Malo the most direct route is over the Rance estuary and along...
