You can carry more with you than on a plane. If your child needs attention you can stop and park the car and attend to your child and at least your child's crying is not heard by 200 other passengers. I should have mentioned that the stone floor in our accommodation was textured and very uneven not good for crawlers knees!. I think that travelling by car is easier tha flying with kids.

Get them used to travelling and they don't learn that they're supposed to be a pain. Even though the initial holiday with our first was only via a car trip, we've never had any bother with him on planes or boats since then. He was under two on his first boat and plane trips. Hadn't actually thought that stone floors would be a problem. Our place has them and we've not done anything special for the little guy who was born here and who has been crawling round on those floors ever since he could crawl. We'd expected problems with the stairs here as there are several of them but the building is so large (it's a 10 bedroom hotel plus 5 bedroom house) that by the time he'd discovered them, he seemed to manage them fine and never fell down them whereas 'tother little guy who was brought up 'til he was 2 in a much smaller place (ie a normal house) managed to fall down the stairs a couple of times (makes us sound like awful parents, doesn't it?).
