Little chance of a French holiday this summer I'm afraid. The French Government have just announced today ( 2 May) that their state of emergency will continue until 24 July and that anyone entering from another country must undergo 14 days quarentine. If you take a look at La Provence online you can read the original article ( in French) .
Posted on 15/05/2020 18:57 by WherenextI see people returning from France are included in those who must quarantine for 14 days according to a Government spokesperson today. The exemption would appear to be for freight drivers and some scientific researchers.
Won't matter to us as we're likely to avoid an overseas trip this year.
Edit - I see Pliers has beaten me to the news.
Posted on 19/05/2020 21:26 by scoutmanReceived email from Club this afternoon, Brittany this year cancelled. Full refund of pitch fees and ferry costs. How long before it appears in my account? We'll have to wait and see.

Full repayment back in my account this morning. Although we are disappointed not to be visiting some of our favourite haunts in Brittany this year, there is always another year. Many thanks to the Club's Overseas Travel Dept. Not only was the online booking simple and efficient (yes it really was, as I stated on an earlier post some months ago, hard for some on here to believe, I know) but also the cancellation and refund process. There are benefits to membership you know.

If quarantine is in place to control the spread i would fully understand and i wouldn't be going. I wouldn't expect France to put it in place just because we have it in place like a tit for tat response. I hope by the date we go quarantine will be over in the UK and we start getting back to normal
