Finally did this trip last weekend, at the fourth time of asking. Felt like a free hit given the travel and accommodation were paid for in early 2020, which isn't a bad thing considering the Dutch coast isn't the cheapest of places (especially now), but the cycling was good, the beaches are lush and the weather was spot on - plenty of direct sunshine but never got properly above 20 degrees, which suits me fine. Some decent sunsets too... 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strawb 3652 Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Taken my GF and my mam to a house (villa?) in Limoge in France for a week. My mam especially needed a break after everything that’s gone on. I’ve only ever been to Paris before and this is a completely different world compared to that shit hole. Relaxing AF, food is good and cheap, wine is pennies. The people are even friendly. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went there years back as we had some flight vouchers and Flybe flew there from Newcastle. Loved it and had a very relaxing time. We went to the Dordogne for the day as the roads are so good and quiet I would recommend it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven’t left the house for three days tbh, but I have rented a car so we have some day trips planned. Thanks for the tip mate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex 30239 Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Is Limoges airport still absolutely tiny by the way? It felt like, apart from some people with small planes and maybe some freight, we were the only flight that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 17610 Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 So, now in Cala D'Or with the horrors of last night in Wallsend and Howdon behind me. And it is absolutely pissing down. Forecast for the rest of the week is spot on though and quite proud I got through the flight without wanting a drink, despite my anxiety about flying. A couple of Brexit bonuses, had to show proof of booster jab to get in of course my NHS app refused to work, causing me a bit of panic. Fortunately searched through my wallet and found a card confirming Id had the booster and they were okay with that. Second one was I am honoured to pay twice the tourist tax our EU cousins pay as I'm from a third country. First thing the hotel do is bill you for that before you've even checked in, 80 fucking euros. Oh aye, and potentially roaming charges. Thanks CT.
