Has Bastogne got enough around it to see? For say two night stay?? Be nice I think.

Any French Maginot line forts in the area. Some of those must be an impressive visit ?

Are we thinking 5 nights 7 days in total stay?

How about a night stop over at Bastogne ?
We could do a meal and drinky poos (pub crawl) It's prob the furthest place to visit ??
Thoughts?
Er... I don't drink, so I guess it's left to me to make sure you all get back to the hut safely each night....where's the local police station :lol:

Might be able to get that down with a group booking but to do that we will need everyone's details. reg etc. Some of the companies take a really long time to post prices and times, bit daft as they are doing the same route day in day out :!:

Ashford Travelodge just off jct 9 M20 is quoting £29 per room, for the Friday 26th June 2015. This seems very good and is only 23 miles from Dover Ferry Port.

According to the hotel website 3 adults to a room. As a member wishes to be left out of the accommodation part, that bring the group down to 9. If the group agrees I am prepared on faith to provisionally book the 3 rooms and sort out later costs.
