Reims photo's?
Discussion
Ours didn't even recognise Gueux as a town!
Tomtom one. Bought new maps for it before we left and they were hopeless. On at least 3 occasions when we left the motorway the nav didn't recognise the roads we on even existed. Just looked like we were driving over fields on the screen.
In the end we headed west out of Reims on the dual carriageway (I forget which one), then worked our way back in on the single carriage road through Gueux. Luckily all the locals we stopped and pestered were friendly and kept us on the right path.

Thanks - that place looks great. But has no rooms available sadly. Currently considering being a bit of a cheapskate and booking a 'Novotel Suite' in the centre of Reims.
After a mix up at our hotel, I stayed at the Campanile hotel in Riems, 6C4GTS and Celticsteve stayed bout 200 yards down the road at another hotel but ate at the Camanile. The steak was ok, but the champagne was great. Around €70 for the night. In which case that's us sorted for the weekend. Lovely. Also gonna pop to some one horse town called Cernay en Dormois out to the East of Reims, as it's where my Great Uncle was shot down and killed back in 1944 (by the bloody Americans - and no, he wasn't in the Luftwaffe, but in the RAF).
