15th September A late change of plan and we decided to go to Chinon before continuing to Villandry and Tours. We were so glad we did! We stayed at the municipal campsite a short walk into town and up to the castle. Chinon is delightful, medieval buildings and streets, wine caves and of course the […]

11th September. After a restful night at Laval, we were off to Camping Lac de Maine in Angers. By now I was really enjoying driving in France and feeling very confident. For parts of our journey the road ran alongside the river. With the sun sparkling on the water it was magical and I had […]
After a couple of lovely days in Bayeux, it was time to move on to Mont St Michel. We’d pre-booked a place at the campsite behind the hotel close to the Mont and were very glad we had. Good facilities and a pleasant 30 minute walk to the Mont. It was very hot, about 35 […]
We made it! Our very first trip to France in our new moho (affectionately named Flossie – don’t ask me why)! There was a lot of pre-planning, route planning, logistics planning and adaptations made to Flossie to cater for our 4 weeks away. Huge thanks must go to (in no particular order): My sisters who […]
For our second outing in the new moho we went off to the New Forest and Salisbury. Lovely site near Brockenhurst with great walks in the woods. Saw lots of wild ponies and foals, cows and sheep. We had a lovely walk through the woods and I loved the tree which from a short distance […]
At last, just a year and nine months on from ordering our new motorhome we got it 4 days before Clubfest! A hectic few days kitting it out and off we went to CAMC Clubfest. We had great fun, though I couldn’t remember a lot of the first night thanks to sharing a bottle of […]
Feb 2023 and finally the sun came out. We had 3 beautiful days of sunshine at Conkers CCC site, to which we will return in the spring. Lovely, quiet site with lots of space between the pitches. No shop or restaurants nearby, so be prepared. We walked for several hours on Sunday afternoon, finding our […]
It was a freezing cold evening, but we set off in the moho, having thoroughly defrosted it, ready to walk the light trail. We checked in at Greenhill Leisure Park, just 4 miles from Blenheim. It’s a lovely site on a farm and I’m sure would be great to visit in the summer. On to […]
We had a couple of days free, so decided to go to Cannock Chase CCC site. It’s only about an hour from where we live so off we went. Arrived early and were told we could park in the car park till check-in time and use the facilities if we wished. We set off for […]
Well, we’ve just been back from Rhodes for a few days and we’ve got itchy feet again! We remembered meeting a couple who recommended Wolverley and thought why not? It’s only an hour away. So, booked up, loaded up and with warm duvet on board we went to Wolverley. As with all sites, you can’t […]
