We are going for a week to a lovely place in France, about an hour's drive inland from Biarritz. Getting the Chunnel because we cannot stand the ferry and it's a 2 day drive down, realistically. I was thinking of simply calculating where is roughly halfway and booking us a room in the nearest Etap, but thought I would see if anyone was aware of anywhere especially nice where it might be worth breaking our journey for more reasons than just to have a rest?

I recommend www.lalunelake.co.uk. A lovely b&b outside Le Mans, dinner and wine provided and is fab!!

that looks brilliant and really reasonably priced! Thank you so much! Much better than those little cells in the Etap

No problem, I hope you can get booked there. We stayed to and from Charente Maritime. It was lovely to stroll around the lake, dip in the pool, and just relax. Then we had a lovely meal.

In the morning had a great breakfast and set on our way. The owners are so friendly and they have a dog called Charlie.

Enjoy your holiday.
