    Hi,
    Family of 3 (including a toddler who will be 2 years 3 months when travelling) want a relaxing holiday near beach for some sun, cycling, strolling etc.
    We'll be flying from Shannon so looking at flying to Nantes or Carcassonne and go to beach towns nearby (La Baule/Pornic or Narbonne/Gruissan near Carcassonne).

    Anyone have been and would it be good for toddler. What activites, things to do are there, is therre a prom by the beach etc.

    Cheers,
    pa.

    We stayed a few days near La Baule a some years ago. It's a bit on the upmarket side, a resort that the French would rate as "chic". Good beach, but that's not our sort of thing, so I can't say more about it than that. There are some nice places to explore in the area, but I have no idea how things might suit a toddler. There are other resorts in Brittany that I would like better (most of them, actually: "chic" is not my thing).

    Are you thinking of hiring a car, or are you thinking of just settling in to one place and not moving about very much?
