Where to stay within an hour or so of calais?

[The Tea Boy]

As per the title really,
off to Calais at the end of the month for a booze run and were looking at stopping for a night within an hour or 1.5hrs of Calais, so what were looking for is somewhere nice to stay, not necessarily a 5* hotel more a nice town and a cheap hotel(if that makes sense?).

Yup, Brugges and Le Touquet are the 2 places. Was in Brugges last week with the family. They loved it and want to go back.

Stop before you get there. Dover`s lovely.

I thought Le Touquet was st and full of drunk brits in football shirts.

Montreuil is much nicer IMO

Just make sure you book Montreuil sur mer though as the other one will be full of Parisians...

Stayed in Hotel de France, they even removed several dining tables to let me park the TVR in the courtyard.
