Lmao, Vlad is it La Lune you are staying at?

Unfortunately we will be in the same region (sight seeing, then Hellfest and a few recovery days) a week before you, travelling down to Folkestone on 13th, then over to Calais on 14th and back over to blighty on 23rd!

Shame our dates don't tie in. There are 5 of us travelling

ROFL, errrrmmm, possibly ... *Smiles sweetly*

They seem very friendly and helpful, really looking forward to it.

I'm sure you will get some takers, it's a lovely place to discover. Plenty to see and do. Personally I want to go into Nantes before Hellfest to see the giant mechanical animals.

Thanks for info, although I did do some research before booking. It works out really well for our needs.

We have also booked a house for the last couple of days, about an hour from Calais on the coast, it looks lovely and is a bargain price wise.

I hope you find some takers for your trip. Cheap, good, accommodation with an English couple and the added benefit of garage parking and tools on hand... What more can you ask for?!

Well Vlad from Yorkshire, so he speaks a kind of English Jinx.
It's a nice place to stay and a very nice couple run the place and some lovely roads.
The museum at the race track is worth a look.
If I didn't have other plans, I would have looked at going again.

Here's a short video of my last trip to Le Mans. It's a bit noisy because I was thrashing the arse of a Deauville around part of the circuit https://www.facebook.com/martin.holmes.144/videos/vb.1457392693/10201277509567246/?type=2&theater
