Catalans Away? : Sat Apr 30, 2011 9:24 am  

Thinking of going this year for the first time.

Was wondering if anyone could advise the cheapest way to go about it all? Travel, Hotel ect

How much in your experience does the whole trip cost, any help will be appreciated.

I've paid £400 with Mayfair. That's 2nights in calella,1 night in monpellier then back to calella for 1 night. All half board and transfers Inc. All I need is a ticket. Can't wait!!!!

We're playing in Montpellier this year, not Perpignan. I think BMibaby fly there from Manchester but you'd better check.
How long are you thinking of going for?
Montpellier is a belting city with plenty of bars, cafes and pubs. There's much more going on than in Perpignan.

Which Calella? The one on the Costa Brava or the one north of Barcelona?

Just got back from Montpellier and agree with Catalancs. Lovely city and although the ground is a bit out of town, the trams should get you there OK

Drinks can be expensive, but I always hit the local wine. A lot cheaper than buying beer. Match days we always fill a cool box with cans of beer from the local shops.

Apparently Angela Powers has visited Montpelier for a feature on an upcoming Boots 'n' All. She seems very impressed on Twitter.
