My son and his wife and their staffie spent September touring France in their motorhome. Used a mixture of sites and aires and had no problems.

@Nick wright I see you have used your free posts up already.. Full subscription is £15 a year and you will get some great benefit from it..

Ref Benidorm, You might see on other threads on here. It's getting busy down there for the winter so either book something or keep a close watch on how the sites are.. There are many Fun members already in Benidorm and if you subscribe there are specific groups set up on here like the Benidorm snowbirds where you can ask / get more local info and see whats going on..

Safe trip... PS.. I'm a Staffie, born and bred in Staffordshire :)

No not once and they obviously did the vet visit in France before returning.

Am not sure about this one. Some of the dogs I have seen in Spain would make a pit-bull look like a lapdog. They still hunt wild boar with dogs in the Pyrenees and you dont do that with a poodle.

Just a bit but Spanish sites do like you to book for 30 nights plus to get a good price,,,I am paying about £12 50 a night at Almafra but booked on for 70 + nights,,BUSBY,,
