HAVE A GREAT TIME!   I'm sure you will - we  first  went camping in France 27 years ago when my eldest son was a six month old baby - and have been back every year since - although some years we've only travelled through on our way to Spain!  My sister and her family have been to Du Letty - and enjoyed it very much - take your bikes, it's apparently great for cycling in that area!

For anyone else travelling with children, last two weeks in August, I've done a list of sites which accept Camping Cheques at that time - and some of them offer 'Children go Free'.  If anyone's interested I'll post it again on here now it's been updated.

Val, could you do that post again, as I appear to have missed it, and I will be camping the last 2 weeks in August. I haven't particularly looked into Camping cheques before, though there has been lots of talk on here about them. Are they just for France or can they be used in other countries.  If they are in other countries, I will be interested in Germany or Italy.

Thanks in advance Val

Here's the list with sites which accept CCs from the 10th August, and including those starting to accept them on 20th August (which just allows the 14 days before school returns). 

There are more sites offering 'free children' after 20th August, so I can add this if anyone's interested as I do have a complete list of all sites which take CCs in August (in France) but will add Germany and Italy if anyone would like this.

Here are some German ones:

Thanks Val.

To get the camping cheque site book, do I just log onto their web site, or will I need to purchase some camping cheques to get it?

I will be camping on & after the 15th, so the list above is really useful.

Thanks

Apparently you can just ring them, and ask for the book.  There's another posting on here, which suggested that if you say you are interested, but want to look at the list of sites, they'll send you it free.   You can also log into the website www.campingcheque.co.uk for a map of 'our campsites' where you'll find a map of Europe with countries - click on to the country - then you'll see 'dots'.  Each 'dot' is a campsite - and click on each one - tells you basic information and gives you access to the site website.

That was quick Val!

I looked at their website 2 summers ago, but as we went the 1st 2 weeks of August, it wasn't much use.

The cheques are such good value,I will go away & have another look, now that I know I can get sites after 15th August. 

Thanks again Val for the quick response!
