We're planning a week in France in June / July. Starting from Plymouth, so could get the ferry to Roscoff or go travel to the Eurotunnel.

The extra time spent on the ferry is pretty similar to the extra time spent travelling to the tunnel. Cost is probably similarish.

We dont want any really heavy riding days, or days on the motorway. Maybe 1500-1800 foreign miles?

Will be camping. Want decent roads and scenary.

Any ideas on where to go, and whether it would be better to start from Roscoff or Calais?

Any idea when the French school holidays are, or when the roads will start to get alot busier / prices get higher?
