1st Dec to (probably) April
I'm going to France on the 17th December and we are staying in north Normandy in a Gite by a farm, we pre-booked through a Twitter deal in September and got it for just £199 for 3 nights, breakfast included and champagne on arrival! Thought it was a good deal so I wanted to share it. If I were you I would check Twitter offers, MSE, and Facebook..How are you getting to France? I can suggest a few sites I have used and not had a problem with : by ferry (usually used it for Dover-Calais) I have used www.ferrysavers.co.uk and for flights skyscanner.com , they are both price comparison websites. Sometimes you may find it cheaper on the carriers website directly, but not happened to me so far. Best advice I can give is probably check everywhere before you book!
