Advantages: Lots to see and do Disadvantages: Full of English visitors
...We have just returned from a perfect weekend in one of our favourite parts of France - LeTouquet. An hour’s drive from Calais (slightly less from the tunnel) finds you in a chic and elegant town.
LeTouquet became popular at the turn of the century. It is also known as Paris-Plage, a beach resort for the Parisians. The town’s reputation was founded on its casinos, boutiques, championship golf courses, beautiful beaches and race track.
Once the aeroplane was invented, wealthy Britons flew across the channel from England to dine at LeTouquet’s fine restaurants. It is still possible to fly to LeTouquet from Lydd in Kent on the delightfully-named “Love Air”.
LeTouquet has retained much of the charm it had 100 years ago. Walking around the town, you can marvel at its architecture. The town hall, built...

...Boulogne, which has a magnificent Bascillica and an old walled town. We felt like Goldilocks, as this town was TOO BIG, but the next place down the coast, was LeTouquet-Paris-Plage, which felt JUST RIGHT.
LeTouquet is about 50 miles from Calais, and you can make it there easily in an hour, via the motorway (110 kmph or 66 miles an hour).

Advantages: Style without too much cost Disadvantages: Spent a foutune on Taxi's
...banging or unacceptable behaviour. The hotel did not make us feel discouraged from having a good time, just to show polite consideration for other guests - nothing whatsoever wrong with that - if you can't manage it then stay somewhere else.
Checkout was 11am but the hotel was happy to look after our luggage for the handful of us who wanted to spend a few more hours exploring
I wouldn't hesitate to take a young family to this hotel or mixed group or enquire about single group bookings. Not sure if it was the best place for a hen party but was great fun never the less!!!
All round - 10 out of 10. A great choice.
