France - would you still go?

Hey,
We have 10 nights in a camping village booked for august.
Dh & 1 are both double jabbed and the kids are under 11 so don't need to PCR. And currently we can enter France without an isolation period.
I just can't decide if going is the right thing to to do or not?
Accommodation is self contained and self catering and we'd be very happy chilling at the beach/pool for 10 days and wouldn't use kids clubs anyway as just not for us. Our travel is in our own car and on the Eurostar. We can afford the time to quarantine when we get home.
Currently covid rates are less in France than here.... it all sounds like a no brainer to go!
But with so many feeling travel is 'too risky' I can't decide!
Anyone else going for it with a self drive? Or anyone cancelled?

unvaccinated can only travel (even with tests) if essential so even if prepared to have a test, unvaccinated can’t go on holiday to france

Actually unvaccinated kids under age 18 are exempt from needing essential reason or to isolate
So if both parents vaccinated and all have a pcr then they’re ok

We cancelled 😞
There were just too many variables with all the talk about the quarantine returning. I'm gutted but I managed to find us a lodge in Devon for the same week so we still have something lovely to look forward to - yet another holiday moved and canceled
