When it’s time to organise the summer holidays for you and the family, one of the big problems is sure to be that of finding destinations and activities which suit both the grownups in the group and the younger family members.
This might seem an impossible task as time but a great place to get around this issue is in France, and the following are a few of the things you could all get a lot of pleasure from.
Going Camping
If you stay in one of the most popular touristy parts of France, like Vendee, then you will find that there are some fantastic camping sites to stay in. This form of accommodation never loses its appeals with kids but it can be equally exhilarating and liberating for adults too. Any family looking for a good value break and a lot of independence would do well to check out a website like the Keycamp one in your quest for the perfect French holiday destination.
Using the Swimming Pool
Another of the advantages to staying in a good quality of accommodation is that you often get wonderful facilities like big swimming pools. You will all feel as though the holiday has truly started once you dip your toes into the water and start having some fun.
Going to the Beach
Who doesn’t get a kick out of going to the beach? France is a wonderful place for doing this with your family. There are some amazing beaches around the coastline of this country and if you base yourself near one then it is sure to be a big attraction for everyone in the group. Of course, you would be best choosing a destination which offers different activities on or near the sea as well as the beach itself.
Exploring Castles
France has a lot of historic and atmospheric castles to explore. These can provide a great centre piece to a day out. If some of the younger members of the family aren’t too keen on getting some culture in this way then you could make it make part of a day out which appeal to them. You could do this by choosing a castle which has other attractions near it or is in an area which is nice for having a picnic.
Eating Well
If there is one final thing which is sure to please all of your family in France it is the food. No matter whether you buy out of the supermarkets to do the cooking yourself or go to a restaurant you are sure to be impressed by the choice and the value. There are some classic dishes in different parts of the country but everywhere you go the family should be well fed and happy with the food on offer.
