Le Gaillon is located in the Pays de Bray region of Normandy, 10km from the spa town of Forges-les-Eaux which is just south of Neufchatel-en-Bray, between Dieppe and Rouen.

It's hard to believe that this beautiful area is just 2 hours from Calais via the new A16 motorway (described by the Mail on Sunday as "the quietest in Europe"). This makes it an ideal base for those of you who do not wish to waste those precious holidays tearing down a motorway for hours on end! It also means that it is a very good destination for a short break, particularly if you live in London or the South-East - pick the children up from school on a Friday afternoon, drive to Dover, and you can be there well before bedtime, giving you 2 whole days to unwind and recharge your batteries before heading back to Calais early on Sunday evening.

2 hours drive from Calais (just 4.5 hours from London via the tunnel!)
40 minutes from Dieppe
1 hour from Le Havre
