Planning Next Summer – Back to geek central

At the end of our super summer 2018 trip to Argeles Sur Mer we decided that we want to do something different next year.

Well not all that different really. We are still going to France, still taking our caravan, but we are also taking a “Special Trip” in May. So we have decided we don’t need a beach holiday bin summer as our “special trip” is our 50th birthday celebration trip to St Lucia! 5* adult only all inclusive…. Can’t be bad eh?

In lite of this we decided on a trip to an area of France that we have been to before but that we feel we didn’t really do justice. We are heading to the Loire Valley.

We have already booked at Stuff & Syb’s place Le Chant D’Oiseau close to Saumur.

Looks like it’s Chateau and wine next summer.

Planning and Booking

We have already decided on the site. It’s an ideal central location. Run by a couple of ex pat’s who are ex campers. They were well into the rally scene which means they are very sociable and they run their campsite in the same way. They provide a very social atmosphere and some great facilities. The site is small with 10/12 pitches and 3 gites.

What Do We Want To See

Last time we only knew we wanted to see 2 of the Château for certain, Chambord and Vilandry. We saw those. But there are many more, and we are also in the area to visit Futuroscope and Puy Du Fou. Places that we both love. The decision has to be made. We can’t possibly fit everything in to 2 weeks. And there is the Son et Lumiere shows that we didn’t see? Decisions Decisions!

The plan is clear….. More planning is required….. More research is required.

If anyone has any suggestions get in touch as we are building a list of suggestions.
