Festival D'Avignon
My daughter and I are planning on being in Avignon this summer for the Festival. Have never been to France. Any thoughts on the festival or nice reasonable places to stay in Avignon.
Thanks! |
The Manoir right in town and it has it's own car pack.
|
Have a look at Le Cloître St-Louis, not far from the railway station (the old one, not the TGV).
Make your reservations somewhere soon; Avignon gets very crowded during the festival. |
Ignore the Manior
In nearby Ile de la Barrthelasse is "L'Anastasy"" but credited cards are not accepted. It's a lovely Maison D'hote with pool and the woman is a good cook. |
The Festival in Avignon is great fun. Very good atmosphere - a lot like Edinborough's festival for comparison. Lots of street entertainers, and off-off stuff - as well as more organized major events. Helps a lot if you ar french-speaking naturally, but even so, it is fun just for the atmosphere. Though be warned - you have to like crowds!
