With a new Raleigh Motovilla awning, my home made full length roof rack and some renewed confidence in our VW since covering some significant miles around the UK we decided to take our bus over to France. Now for some this isn't a big issue, maybe living in London, but as we're in Newcastle we've got an 8hr drive just to get to Dover with maybe another half a days driving in France to get over to Brittany. We drove over 1500 miles in two weeks without a hitch.

Etables Sur Mer - AbriCotier campsite is excellent

Finally the best campsite we've ever found in France, http://www.camping-lecolombier.com/en/
Double bed out, we've installed a rock and roll bed within the existing Holdsworth seat base.
The fold out single bed, formally made part of the double, now functions as a useful single for our small boy
