   Hi,

   This summer I am hoping to organise a family holiday in Gridelwald, switzerland (hopefully squeeze in some cheeking mtb action!!)

   Anway, I am looking for ideas for somewhere to stay for a few days en-route. We are probably driving from Calais Can anyone reccomend anything? I need some cheapish accomodation <£70 per night), a small apartment/studio would be best as we are taking our 1 year-old. I am thinking forests/lakes/nice walkin areas

   Any ideas ?

   Cheers

   If you're going through France then how about Les Rousses in the Jura. It's a ski resort with lots of accomodation which is very cheap in Summer.

   If ou take the free motorway option through Belgium anf Germany then how about Freiburg. Do the Feldburg on the MTB, visit the passive houses and carless suburb, and stay in a hotel in the centre which should be possible for £70.

   Wrongun,

   Maybe you will overlap with the Eiger mtb marathon http://www.eigerbike.ch/ on the 12th Aug.

   My recommendation would be Beaune, the wine capital of Burgundy, Frances oldest and most prestidgous wine region. You definately don't have to be a wino (like me!) to enjoy yourself there.
