ROAD TRIP
If you fancied the road trip, we did it ourselves June 2023. You can catch a ferry to Calais or get on the EuroTunnel to Paris. We recommend a one night stop in Dijon. The roads are a lot easier to drive on compared to the UK and majority of the drive has beautiful views of the endless farm land for the first half. As you get closer to the south, you will witness the most stunning mountain views.

You can take a train from London St Pancras to Nice with a change in Paris.
Spoilt for choice with options of accommodation around Frejus or Saint-Raphael.
