travel from Leicester to La Zenia with dog by car - Page 2

Thanks Chris

just as a note .

we used Brittany ferries from Poole to cherbourgh. The dog stays in the car for four hours and you can visit it at the halfway mark.

Our dog slept all the way.

Hi I do this trip annually with dog ,ferry to Santander  Santander to Burgos stay at hotel Alicia ,dog friendly rooms 50 euros B and B ,Burgos to zenia 9 hours ,stop every 3 hours for a tea or coffee on the motorway ,it's a doddle.sat nav will take you all the way,I haVe driven through France from Calais ,stop bordaeux ,Burgos then same route but it's a lot longer drive obviously nevertheless it's easy driving ,just boring

I said hotel in Burgos ,it's actually lerma only a few kilometers away

Hi Dave I am making the same trip with my dog also, think tunnel thinking of your dog is the best situation.

What your travelling plans and routes? regards Tim 

Hi Tim, i’m Booked on the 10.50 euro tunnel train and then taking the west side of France. Type in google maps and it’s the first route you see. Not sure how it will go but if I can get the Bordeaux day 1 I will be happy with my progress. Lots of services that are dog friendly and hotels attached that take dogs so i’m Told from other much appreciated posts. Reds Dave

So glad you messaged me i was taking the AA auto route east of Paris, but just looked at the map. Thank you so much. My in-laws live there and my wife there presently.

No problem at all I will repost a message again next Tuesday when I have arrived in La Zenia to update you on how it went. Rgs Dave

that be great much appreciated, anything you need just message me

Could you let me know which pet friendly  hotels you stayed in also on the way? you will need a vet also if you're coming back to administer a tapeworm pill for your pet(stamp pet passport). My wife knows someone if you need any help.
