Family Break to France
France is the ideal destination for a family break, with cities crammed with culture, captivating coastlines, charming countryside and historical sites to enjoy.
Take your bikes and cycle through the Normandy countryside, head to the coast to try your hand at some watersports or why not visit Paris to explore the capital in all its glory?
Local tourist boards organise easter egg hunts across the country too. One of the most popular is through the beautiful gardens of Chateau Vaux-le-Vicomte in Maincy, Ile de France, just an hour from Paris and will keep the kids busy for hours.
The beauty of car travel means you can explore further afield too so why not head into neighbouring Germany or Belgium to try some decadent chocolate easter eggs and hearty seasonal food?
The world – or Europe at least – is your oyster!
