France
Things to do on a North France holiday
Northern France can often be overlooked as a great destination for a family holiday, however we’re here to change that! With plenty of the best places to have a family holiday in France located in the Hauts-de-France region you’ll be spoilt for choice. Not only are there plenty of accommodation types to suit everyone, Northern France is host to some truly great experiences and attractions for you and your family.
For the kids, every detail of visiting a new country is exciting, but when visiting France there’s something special about it being so close to home, yet so different in culture. From the ferry crossing and the sound of a new language, to buying fresh croissants from the local boulangerie every morning and even seeing the cars on the ‘wrong’ side of the road, France is a great sensory experience that excites children of all ages!
Travelling on a ferry to France with P&O Ferries means not only will you have a choice of sailings including early morning and late evening, but your journey time across the channel is only 90 minutes! We have everything you need onboard to keep the kids entertained during your 90 minute ferry crossing to France – including our new kids play areas with soft play and interactive games*.
With so many award-winning attractions and beautiful UNESCO World Heritage sites right on your doorstep, the region of Hauts-de-France is perfect for a North France holiday.
