Living so close to the S. coast, I feel I must take advantage of the proximity of France, and am pondering a 4- or 5-day holiday over there with the kids during half term next week -- avoiding Paris and instead focusing on the Northern bits (probably arriving at Dieppe).
Have you done this? If so, where would you advise me to go (or avoid)? Feel free to recommend towns, regions, hotels, restaurants, activities, or anything else that springs to mind.
