Re: Brittany 2013, Euro 'friendly' trip
Forgive the 'bump' but I thought I would update this thread with a few piccies and info!
Me and Mr Smiler stayed here for a few days and I have to say its SPOT ON
Ken and Lesley make superb hosts and we chose to eat there each evening with the other guests Paul & Miko (I think its about 20euros each for a 3 course meal - bring your appetite, she loves to feed peeps well, lol) the B&B is perfectly located for some fab biking roads, which they were only too happy to show us on our maps
From Cherbourg, its about 200 miles down, but I would suggest a more scenic route would add a few more to that (but make it more enjoyable )

Re: Brittany 2013, Euro 'friendly' trip
oh and I meant to say...Ken & Lesley have very kindly given us the use of their discount code for the ferry! I think its around 10% but every little helps 
Bookings for the B&B are being taken for next year NOW - for anyone thinking of coming along you will need to contact Nick (Red5) and get a deposit paid sooner rather than later !
Any other questions just ask...

Of all the things I have ever lost, I miss my mind the most .....

Don't care who you are, how much you have, how powerful you are. You still sit on the toilet with your pants around your ankles. Yep, it's a level playing field..

Re: Brittany 2013, Euro 'friendly' trip
With those pics and reviews from Smiler, lets ask the question, does anybody not want to come along??

The bunker is along the coast from St Nazaire (Batz-sur-Mer?) well worth a visit
Coming back to the UK you're always aware of just how much more traffic there is over here!!!!
Still, nice to enjoy some VERY empty roads If I have to explain, you'll NEVER understand
