Looked for a hotel near the Tunnel prior to returning to UK and were delighted with La Ferme. The room wasn't particularly large but it was clean and comfortable. The minibar was stocked and not over priced and the food in the restaurant was suprisingly good. One minor cavil - tiny towels in the bathroom. OK the recession bites but nothing is worse than economies like that, and it's becoming more common all over France.

Heading across the Channel this hotel is well placed for Calais. Although it took a bit of finding, the hotel is well located and the setting restful and scenic. Check-in was swift and efficient, with my heavy bag being taken to my first floor room for me without me needing to ask, as the hotel doesn't have a lift. The first floor is built into the eaves, as was my room, so you need to take care not to bang your head on the sloping ceilings. This also makes the rooms cosy, but quite hot, which might be a problem in warmer weather. The bathroom was of a high standard, smart and sleek, although the room itself was decorated in more 'country' style. Breakfast was simple and buffet style, with some cooked items available such as sausages and scrambled eggs, something that is not often on offer in France. The owners and staff were helpful and attentive, though not much English is spoken. Overall a really pleasant stay and good value for money, so I'll be returning again.

Hotel is clean and tidy, ideal for an overnight before moving south or returning to the UK. Reception was helpful and polite, book in advance for Dinner. Breakfast is a bit expensive!

Ridiculous prices for fake 'charme'. Comfortable, in a beautiful setting, but that's all there is to recommend it. Food in the restaurant was good, but expensive for what it was. The cheaper formula was not available, though according to the menu it should have been.
