We are looking at going to france this August.  It will be our first time abroad. We are thinking about travelling from portsmouth to caen and then to drive down to the loire valley and stay there for a week.  We then wish to travel back up towards Caen
and stay for another week somewhere else.

I have looked on the internet etc and my head is spining with all the different options. We are looking for a site which has a swimming pool and maybe a resturant but not a huge entertainment site.  Somewhere
that there are lots of places to visit nearby.  Has anyone any experiences that they can share with me or recommendations on where to stay there.

Also any ideas on where else to go on the way back.  I will be travelling with hubby and 7 year old but also my folks in their motorhome.
