    Taking a car to the South of France

    Hopefully this is the correct part of the forums but if not apologies. Have always done the package type holiday in the past and thinking about something a little different (for us anyway) this year.

    Reims, France

    Running away there for a few days over the holiday period. Change is as good as a rest and all that. Hotel very central with underground parking. Does anyone have any advice they'd be willing to share? The cathedral and the champagne, obviously, but what else at this time of year? Les
