The ept website is great for booking hotels, but doesnt help much with travel, so if anyone has an experience (good or bad) pls let me know, cheers, marc Title: Re: HELP EPT travel stuff Post by: Royal Flush on January 26, 2013, 04:35:24 AM Hi, anyone here been to deauville before?

Title: Re: HELP EPT travel stuff Post by: julian on January 26, 2013, 11:41:09 AM you also have to change train stations in paris,
the worst stop on the tour to get to imo, but worth it once there & it's possible to get reasonable priced digs glgl if you go Title: Re: HELP EPT travel stuff Post by: kinboshi on January 26, 2013, 11:56:35 AM Can also get the ferry from Portsmouth (the overnight one is best and get a room to kip in), and then the drive is a lot shorter at the other end (as the ferry goes to Caen or Le Havre).
