Is it me or do all these recommended places to stop put the UK to shame?

Stop between Dover and London.....what will you get, a few Premier Inns, a Pub with a hotel upstairs with sticky carpets.

I think there are places, but probably known to locals, very rarely on or near to the main roads (M2/M20).
There is this, very good but it is pricy. If I was travelling the 28 miles between Dijon and Beaune in Burgundy, I would have so many places to choose from.

Looks nice.

I'd put that in the high end bracket for accommodation/hotel, French standards provide that sort of food for half the price.

Try to find time to visit the Lohéac car museum, around an hour south from Caen from memory.

Did you see the track? Looks like PHer heaven !
