Default Re: Recommendations requested for places to stay in France please

Thanks for all of your suggestions folks.

We went to a little town near Tours for three days, went to a village near Cahors for another three, camped in a lovely place down the road from the Gorge Du Tarn for three days followed by another three days in a converted pigsty in the (pretty scary) Pyrenees with Florac as the nearest town.

All in we basically travelled all the way down through France from Caen and covered virtually 2000 miles coming home on an overnight ferry from Bilbao.

We done the Mulsane straight (thanks Fizz and Squid!) and as it was just after the 24 hour race there was lots of protection still out so even better. We also saw the Gorge Du Tarn, albeit from the road, the Millau bridge, Chenonceau and Aven Amand. We also managed to see about 4 or 5 of the 100 most beautiful (as voted by ??) villages in France. When we win the lottery we'll be buying a camper van and doing the other 95.

It was a lovely holiday and I even managed to pick up a fiancé on the way!
