Hotel/B&B for family of 5...about 2 hours south-west from Calais?

We are hoping to travel to the Vendee area in France this Summer and will driving over there via Eurotunnel.

We want to break the journey up by travelling for about 2 hours when we get to France, stopping somewhere overnight and then travelling the rest of the way the next day.

Can anyone recommend a cheap hotel or B&B that will accommodate a family of 5 (i.e. 2 adults, 3 children)? Ideally, would prefer a family room but I know from experience these are difficult to come by! It would have to be fairly cheap for us to be able to afford 2 rooms. Not bothered about facilities or location too much as it'll just be a place to rest our heads for the night. Has to be clean though!

We stayed here en route from Calais to Charente last year..it was lovely... www.lalunelake.co.uk. We stayed in a family room, not sure it sleeps 5 though but worth checking.

we stayed in Rouen - the Novotel Rouen Sud which is near the motorway in the university/conference part of the city and the hotel was fab - outside pool, play area, woodland walk (and some wodds nearby where students went running) the paly area is next to the bar whcih was handy as DC played lego/PS games while mummy appreciated the local grape juice and the food was fab! Room was big, roomy and clean and they went out of their way to accommodate the DC - even changed our booking date at no extra charge or fuss (campsite flooded due to heavy rain so we left a day or 2 early). Also has supermarkets, garage, McDonaldes etc nearby but not in sight.
