Assuming all goes well I’ll be pointing my CX Turbo north from Toulouse next Thursday afternoon with a Chunnel train to catch on Friday night. I need to be about 2 to 3 hours north of Toulouse for a leisurely Friday waft to Calais. Any suggestions for somewhere to stay?

Bordeaux or La Rochelle, depending on your appetite for driving on each day. Bordeaux for obvious reasons; the seafood in La Rochelle is, however, amazing. I ate the best grilled langoustine I've ever had in a jazz bar there. Admittedly it was 25 years ago, so I doubt the bar recommendation itself would be worth much...

I mentioned the stay in my road trip thread, but a big thanks for the heads up re Hotel Joyet du Maubec. An absolutely wonderful place with superb staff, great food and an epic view from the terrace. 10/10!
