Winter storage south brittany/south england

Any recommendations for winter storage along the south brittany or south English coast for 12 m sailing yacht.
We are hoping for storage on land. Thx ahead of time!

Loire Nautic Services in Cordemais, France, close to Nantes.
Very reasonable prices and friendly.

DIY friendly too.

We had our boat several years there and did big refits ourselves.

Thanks for the suggestion, just the type of place we're looking for!
We would love to hear more suggestions from other cruisers too, always good to have lots of options.

A bit north from Nantes area is River Vilaine, where are several places in or out of water: Arzal just after locks separating river from sea. La Roche Bernard (fine old village) and slightly further from sea propably bit lower priced Port de Folleux and Multi Nautic, which is only dry with good facilities and services for boat work. I suppose same applies to Arzal.

Trafalgar Wharf in Portchester is big and easy to access by road or train. Worth booking now to ensure a spot is available rather than leave it to the last minute.
