Check the weather and the hours of daylight
I have had similar ideas, but I have to be realistic:-
BBC - Weather Centre - World Weather - Europe - West and Canary Islands
I use that link as a guide to what is happening to the weather up to 5 days ahead.
We now know that it is actually pretty cold even in Spain when that forecast above indicates low value double figure centigrade values.
Anyway, the only place in "West Europe" worth considering at present, IMO, is Morocco or even further south (did you know that Morrocco put in an application to join the EU some years ago?).
Currently the wind is coming out of the East, so no better there.
Get one or other of the south of England to north of Spain ferries is one deduction and go south as fast as possible.
None of this takes into account the lack of daylight - already been said elsewhere that couped up in a tent, below freezing, for many, many hours is not much fun - romantic perhaps, but not fun.
ps I've just read posts 3/4 in here:-
