Really pleased with the price of return Dover Calais crossing with AP crossings. Charlotte was very responsive to messages and saved us a fair few quid .

I always travel to France with friends by car, of course, it is long and tiring. This month, there were no travel companions, so I decided to save money and flew for the first time from Liverpool. I was worried about how I would cope with transporting the equipment, so I collected everything I needed in advance to not be overloaded and ordered flagship transfers so I didn’t have to worry about parking or travel time, I just arrived and flew. Upon arrival, I rented a car on the spot, it was much easier to get there.

6 hours driving!
I hate driving, I get bored after 30 minutes.
Not so bad if someone else drives and I go to sleep. If I can't get to sleep then that's boring as well

I go Portsmouth to Caen so no need to go anywhere near Paris for me luckily. Nice drive down to Le Mans, Poitier and then through to Limoges. Comfortable 6 hours of decent roads. We've got 2025 and 2027 booked for Golden Oaks, as like you with the Secret Garden, it was an ideal family holiday with quality fishing. Always been tempted by Chanteboeuf

We fished the secret garden . We have rebooked for 2025 as it was a great family holiday with good quality fishing
Iv also booked chanteboeuf for 2026 which is just around the corner from secret garden .
I’m interested, do you go via Paris or take a longer route round ?

It is mate. Which lake are you fishing around there? Plenty of them down there and quite an accessible region with decent road links and the airport

Very nice . My wife and family met a couple of anglers on the plane travelling to go fishing. It’s lovely place to fish down there

Consider looking at a different route - eg Newhaven to Dieppe?

Looks like we are all in favour of kicking them out the motor then 😎😂😂

That's exactly what we do. I drive down with all the gear and suitcases and they fly down to Limoges with just some hand luggage. Works out cheaper and much easier for the family and I get a stress free drive
