Back from France!
 
What an amazing time!

I reccomend that anyone with a bit of £'s tucked away try and visit Chateau SP at some point. It was absolutely stunning. The website just doesn't do it justice.

I just wish that the weather here was a bit better. The weather in St Jean De La Porte was a plesant 31 degrees on day. Coming home to 13 degrees was a bit of a let down :(

We had free rein of the whole place. Even the caves underneath.

There was a plunge pool, that was used by the 'boys' everyday!

It looks quite tame from ^ those pics :)

But it was breakfast washed down with a beer/glass of wine and pretty much an alcoholic drink with anything else past midday.

It was fooking mental. :)

Weather not so good over here now: it was 28 at the weekend, struggling to make 15 now with a cold north-westerly. Thunder predicted nearly every night for the next week:(

Yeah it looks a bit poop, I had a look this am.

I think it was timed just right, although sitting in a feild for a wedding with 31 degrees blazing down on us was a bit much to take! The sangria went down well afterwards!

I love the Alps, not been to France in the Summer, but Austria and Switzerland are pretty cool.

Currently in Croatia, it's like the old Europe here and very nice. Health and Safety hasn't reached here yet :D

Clare, it really was gorgeous. On the Sat you could see the snowy peaks of mount blanc! It was weird seeing the snow at the same time as being in the scorching heat!

I would love to take the children, they would love it!

I was interested, until I saw $2000 per night. Going to France next year and will be staying 3 nights in Paris, 2 nights around Dijon/Lyon, 7 nights in Cannes (during Monaco F1 GP week) and finishing off with several days at my mates place near La Rochelle. Total spend so far, NOWT ! :D Booking ferries this w/e and expect them to be 50 quid, return. So just a guest house in the countryside around Lyon to source now.

Oh, and the F1 tickets. Better prepare the credit card :eek:

Yeah it's a bit steep, but as it was an exclusive booking for the wedding, we had the whole castle and 10 rooms, plus games room, cinema etc. The groom (my best mate) had a great deal.

If you had 20 people and split it it's not that expensive for what you get, honestly!

Looking back at my pictures it doesn't look like a wedding, more of a four day piss up!

Also, it's defiantly haunted. There are some really freaky pictures!
