Heading to Croatia with caravan and 6yr old next Summer - first stop about 4hrs from ferry is around Metz but can't find any sites there; if anyone can recommend a scenic place with a heated pool that would be great.

How about this one.

I have stayed here twice, but not recently.

I seem to remember it had an excellent resturaunt, but things change.

Not too far from Metz, and a lovely location.

Thank you for that. It's lovely but South of Strasbourg so too much of a drive for the first day from Calais...

Yes, Possibly..

I did it from Calais, but it was on a motorbike.

How about going through Belgium/ Luxembourg - stopping here just before the Luxembourg border - cheap fuel in Luxembourg. Camping Officiel, Arlon

There's a municipal campsite at Metz, walking distance to town which is quite nice. Campsite is ok for an overnight stop.

Can't see you getting to Metz in 4 hours if you are towing a caravan. Just under 300 miles.
