help wanted to plan a 5 day French trip

[Simond S]

I ride with a local pub club. I am looking to organise a short hop into France for easter time next year. Our goal is to cycle to Newhaven for the dieppe ferry. From there we want to travel South probably about 100 miles (over two days).

My questions. Does anyone know what the Jumiege region is like. On google it looks like a massive nature reserve, but is the reality a bike friendly area or not? (We mainly ride Road or hybrids)

Also, does anyone know of a good place to stay on night one, in the region, and somewhere on the route back. Having done 30 miles in the UK i would imagine a maximum of 30 in France before some of the members get tired on the way out,

I have a support vehicle ready (Merc V class) and a driver to take all the clothing spares etc..

So, any pitfalls, concerns or things I should worry about. This is a first for me, although we will only be covering 300 miles over the 5 days it seems a much bgger task than doing 5 normal rides!

hunt the 8 page thread on this forum about the london to paris ride for some good tips.
