I have emailled Fabienne ( Villa Louise ) about bookings for next year as I will be at Spa quite a bit. She was able to book me in for July , so I will find out if the other rooms are available. I also asked about using the outside bbq. This means there will be another room spare at the "Bel Natura" , as I will cancel this Sunday booking.

Are you all stopping over somewhere on the way out as I had assumed people would be blasting to spa, 2 nights there and having a stop over on the way back on the 28th?

thats a fair bit out of your way , what you could do is pop over the border to Luxembourg , at least to get cheap fuel/beer/giftsI've not planned it yet either, will probably blast to straight Spa, although we might go there a day earlier and see the race and head back via Reims

handy, filed away for a future visit , I was struggling to get something with offstreet parkingHave you decided where to stay in Bruges? If not I can recommend this place which is 15 mins walk to the centre and also has plenty of parking spaces, unlike many central Bruges hotels. It's a small family run traditional hotel. Rooms a bit dated but clean and spacious http://www.belfortho...erie-pannenhuis

I'm tempted to combine this trip with a visit to the Ring just for half a day. I know its dangerous and insurance isn't valid and its full of plonkers but its just something to tick off the bucket list. Being a Family Man means that my opportunities for playtime have to be taken when presented and turned upto Defcom 5. Anybody else done this or would like to join me?
