Travel.
The Majority of our guests travel by car using one of the ferry crossings or Eurotunnel to France. Then take the Autoroutes which can be used all the way to Nantes.
We use the short Channel crossings and then travel via Abbeville, Rouen, Caen, Rennes to Nantes and on to Saint-Jean-de-Monts.
However with the rise in regional airports an increasing number of clients travel to France by air and hire a car in France.
We have listed below some information on Ferries and Airports together with contact details which we hope will be of assistance when planning your journey.
