We've been home just over a month now and it's time to reflect on what was the trip of a lifetime. The caravan has been cleaned inside and out ready for its next trip, washing done and we're back at work, back to the daily grind. Our 50 days for our 50th was the best... Continue Reading →
This site is part of the ACSI discount scheme. A 6.30pm arrival and we are welcomed warmly. It is also, probably the hottest day of the year so far and we've been stuck in a car for eight hours. Would we like fresh bread in the morning? Go and find yourself a pitch. No need... Continue Reading →
A marathon journey, eight hours, no peage, and we've only done six inches on the map. One of the hottest days of the trip so far and I've been sat in the passenger seat with a French map book stuck to my knees having map reading lessons. I've no idea why I need to learn... Continue Reading →
Arriving at Camping La Coccinelle was the start of our last week and hopefully the start of a bit of Rest & Relaxation. We arrived and it was blowing a hooley. Shown to a pitch we decided against putting the canopy up and quickly retreated inside the caravan. We were feeling a bit of a... Continue Reading →
A member of the ACSI discount scheme. This site comes with really good reviews. Which we always flick through before attending any site. One review stated that one of the approach roads was a little hairy. So, as the Satnav took us nearer we were ready for it. The road had a few tight bends... Continue Reading →
Legs down on another site. This time we chose a site run by a lovely Dutch couple, on the side of another mountain. This holiday is starting to repeat itself. Just in case I haven't mentioned before, The Boss has a love of mountains, bridges, waterfalls, old cemeteries, castles and war graves. On route he... Continue Reading →
A site on the ACSI discount scheme in France. Halfway up a mountain with spectacular views from every pitch. We phoned en route to this site to check availability of pitches as our caravan was going to have to do a bit of climbing and venture through some narrow roads to get there. The nearby...

We have just discovered the most expensive road in Europe. We join the motorway towards France at Ventimiglia, Italy. We take a toll ticket, we drive approx 100 yards around a bend to another toll booth and hand in the ticket, €6, "You are having a bloody laugh" didn't reduce the cost so we just...

A beautiful woodland site on the banks of the river L'Alzon. Part of the ACSI discount scheme. Arrival at reception, booked in quickly, choose a pitch and let them know which one. A restaurant/takeaway is located next to reception while a shop selling fresh bread, espadrilles and basic food essentials is to the rear of... Continue Reading →
Thought we would share some thoughts on our trip to France in the summer of 2015. If anyone out there has wondered or feared what it is like to tow outside our shores, then maybe this will give some food for thought. To date, this is our only trip abroad with the caravan but we...
