Hi All

We are planning our first trip abroad next year to Lake Garda in our caravan, not sure if this will be via ferry or LeShuttle so again experiences would be welcome.

It would be great if we could get recommended routes and any stop over sites that would be recommended for our journey

We plan to travel to italy over two days hence the need for a stop over point but any suggestions timeframes etc would be gratefully received

Thank you in advance

We had always used ferries when towing into Europe but this year when we wanted to travel it was £150 cheaper using the tunnel. So I think research it well before deciding. Also, I must admit, the first time towing on tunnel I was a tad nervous and I'm not a nervous tower. No worries at all, it was brilliant. So if there's not much in it - Eurotunnel for me.

Living in Essex makes for an excellent start if you have the time and if you use a CL near the coast, relaxed evening before the big travel days. It's what we do - just saying.
