Travelling with a dog is easy peasy - but not sure about a pet passport issued in France [should be OK] Best way to cross tha Channel is on Eurotunnel - quick and easy. You add the dog to the passenger list [charge about £18 each way] and thats all you need to do, going out from UK. No further checks are carried out. Coming back, they check the passsport and worming treatment at Calais [Follow the signs with the dog on it]Travelling through France - look at the Logis de France website - tells you if dogs are allowed in bedrooms, and alsi if they are allowed in the Hotel restaurant. Many hotels allow both. The IBIS chain also seem pretty OK with dogs, but its worth checking by email before booking.French motorway services are OK for walking dogs for 'needs breaks', as are the 'Aires'Switzerland - we use the IBIS at Sion Est - dogs allowed everywhere and there is a big walk through orchards nearbyHaven't needed a hotel in Italy, so can't help you there.We tend to limit driving to about 250 miles a day when we have the dog with us - seems fairer on him
Hi That is so helpful - thank

HiI am also going to Pescara to stay with friends in a village nearby. Never done this with the dog either except for trips from London to Scotland which is quite straightforward in the main. When are you planning to go? I am trying to decide between going in June when it should not be so hot - or leave it til September. I've never been to this region of Italy before and never with my dog. I am wondering if it is worth buying a tent in case we don't make it to accommodation - given that not everywhere will welcome dogs.

"I am going to drive to pescara from England and was just wondering how much do you think it will cost with petrol and tolls, ...."I use Via Michelin as my first choice route planner. For the journey of Calais to Pescara via Sion, it gives the following;-
- Distance 1054 miles
- Time 18.4 hrs - 14.5hrs on motorways [but that depends on how fast you drive]
- Tolls Road tolls £80 + Swiss road Tax £28
- Petrol £165 - but again it depends on how and what you drive
If I was doing the journey with 2 dogs and no other driver, I'd say 4 overnight stops [possibly 3, but it depends on how far you have to drive in the UK]Add to that the cost of Eurotunnel - say £250 return in peak season [half that one-way]Hotels - say £100/night Hope that helps
Thank you very much really
