Depends what you're after but Renne is a great city to visit. Just back from there.

Holiday with a load of Sun readers. Terrifying.

I know quite a few people in Brittany, English and French . . .turn up reading the Sun and they'll kick the shit out of you and throw you back in the channel.

I do not need to buy or read The Sun as we had a voucher code sent by e mail to book as we had booked last year.

Because it is the largest selling newspaper that will always be the case wherever you go and there are brits there.

Nonsense. There’s Brits in Tuscany and I didn’t see any copies of The Sun for sale. The Guardian, Homes and Gardens (Tuscan edition) and the Morning Star (International edition) but no Sun.

The vouchers started in the paper yesterday so am looking at a 4 day break in Brittany. Has anybody any been there and have knowledge of what it is like. We need a quiet place with shops, restaurants and bars not disco type bars.

That's probably the last thing you need to worry about. It's hardly Benidorm in Brittany.

so who's picking up the tab then ? serious question!

Presumably it is a deal where the site owners cover the cost generally to get the business and the £9.50 paid by readers cover The Suns costs, so the deal costs The Sun nothing. I suppose similar to us allowing children in free and relying on what dad spends in the bar.

Which asks the question why The Sun? Surely the site owners would prefer nice, friendly, educated outwardly looking Guardian and Observer readers as opposed to types who complain that everyone is speaking foreign and that they won’t serve chips with your Galettes?

Could this be two fold (a) doing it in The Sun reaches the maximum numbers (b) Snobs who think The Sun is below them wouldn't go for a cheapy holiday anyway as it wouldn't be good enough or have the snob value to tell there mates.

The Sun is fifth in popularity and it’s nothing to do with snobbery.
