    I am heading to France via the UK. I am travelling Dublin to Holyhead and on to Dover. I am travelling with children and will be breaking the journey with an overnight, planning to sail from Dover to Calais around 12 midday. Does anyone have any suggestions as to where I could break my journey without going too far out of the way?

    You might be as well getting south of London before you park up. Its a few years since did it (from Fishguard) but there is a big "staging post" type motorway stop in Kent, or if you go all the way to Dover there's a big carpark in the middle of the town, near enough the ferries. We stayed there in a caravan. Not v glam but it takes the pressure off for the day after (jump on an earlier ferry). I wouldnt be leaving myself too much to do on the morning of the ferry.

    I'm planning to travel by campervan too in the mid July.But my itinerary is slightly different:
    Rosslare-Cherbourg-Bilbao(Spain)
    Does anybody recommend to me nice places en route?
    I like history,scenic town/villages and gourmet places....
    Give me some ideas.
