    Are you thinking of St Paul de Vence in Provence by any chance? Lovely spot.
    Resting place of Belarusian artist Marc Chagall.
    About 40 mins from Nice.

    We was in Brittany for the two weeks so it's somewhere round there. The church there is summat you'd see in a Robin Hood series like the rest of the town.

    Very much depends how busy you want it. I like Corralejo in Fuerteventura, which is quieter than most of Tenerife but still has some life and is a boat ride away from Playa Banca in Lanzarote, so you can get a look at that too. On Gran Canaria, Maspalomas or Port Morgan are very picturesque but more expensive, Puerto Rico is hilly and more touristy.

    I think you've found it mate, beautiful place and you could only drive around it if you lived there.
    I've always wished I could've gone back to Mont St Michel, it's been one of the regrets of my life that I never got to see it all, stunning place.

    Depends what you like. We use to hire a car and drive along the Algarve, some amazing beaches from fisherman’s coves (not many left) to smaller towns.
    Albufreira old town is lovely. The strip is livelier, though we always go just out of season.
    I love the place, we’ve been half a dozen times and looking at renting a villa for whole family next year.

    Interestingly, our Formentera hotel is hosting Fillipo Inzaghi’s wedding party with much partying going on.

    I’ve been to Puerto Rico, Chazz.

    Thoroughly enjoyed my two weeks there, one of the highlights was copping off with a hefty lass from Warrington.

    Resembled a portly Milandra Burrows.

    Happy times.
