Two Potter Around Northern France
After our trip to Corsica earlier this year I felt our next excursion should involve less distance and fewer sheer drops on the side of the road. Corsica was a delight and the scenery stunning but something less demanding will go down nicely over the next couple of months. And so yesterday we...

Two Go to Corsica
This trip was originally going to be called Two Go to Corsica and Sardinia. Yet as I read up on what we might find on the islands it became clear we couldn't do much more than sprint round the coastlines in the time available so we are going to Corsica only and Sardinia will have to wait...

Two Go Back in Time
This time tomorrow we should be on the ferry for the overnight sailing from Plymouth to Roscoff. The books are all packed. Apart from the rogue one about the Mississippi Delta the rest should give a good clue where we are heading. :)

Two Go Back to Spain
We are currently sitting in the queue at Plymouth waiting to board the ferry to Santander. The plan is to head towards the south west, Andalusia and Extremadura then return through Portugal to Galicia before ending back in Santander at the beginning of July. But like all our plans this one may...

Two Go To Sicily
Our delayed trip to Sicily is only a few days away now. We board the ferry to Roscoff on Tuesday evening and the following morning we will commence the 1600 miles, or thereabouts, trek to Sicily. The plan is to take 10 to 14 days to get there, we won't be rushing but we won't be doing a lot of...

Two Return to France
We should have left for Sicily this time last month but family matters intervened and Sicily has been put off until late summer. We have managed to get away for six weeks so we are off for a jaunt around France. There is a very loose plan, firstly to drive the length of the Loire from sea to...

Two Go to France
We are off to France today, catching the ferry to Roscoff then pottering round Brittany for a while until the weather eventually changes as I am sure it will, at which point we will head south in the hope of some warmth. As with our trip to Spain earlier this year I will use this Forum as a...

Three Go Adventuring Again
Just four more sleeps to go before we set off on our biggest adventure yet. In anticipation of the royalties rolling in, the book cover has already been completed: The plan has been worked out in detail although it probably needs a little more work as it only covers the first 24 hours after...

Great American Road Trip
We have been planning this for some time now as part of our retirement and it is finally coming together for next year. From February to September we will ship our motorhome to Baltimore and spend 8 months touring North America. Once you start planning, you realise just what a big country...

Shall I, Shan't I? Third time lucky? Trip to Norway from Spain
Our last two summer "escapes" from Spain have seen us, eventually, spending some time in Norway, a country we have found an affinity with. However, anyone reading my previous two threads ... https://www.motorhomefun.co.uk/forum/threads/from-spain-to-norway-the-long-way-round.152917/ and...

The Jumar's at no. 32 go on holiday (From Spain to ????)
We, jumar and jumartoo, Martin and Judith, are about to take our annual summer trip. Leaving Spain as the holidaymakers arrive, this year we have no fixed plans. France, obviously, but then the route will all be down to the weather and our whim. We would like to revisit southern Sweden and...

From Spain to Norway - the long way round
As some of you may already know we live in Totana, Spain. This summer we are making a five month trip, spending some three months or so in Scandinavia and most of that time in Norway. We're setting off in the morning to start a slow drive to Dieppe to catch a ferry (19 May) to Newhaven to...

Mousy mooches around Greece..
“We lost the fridge door going around that roundabout one year”.... I’m woken out of a light snooze to Mr Mousys reminiscing.. we are near Reading on our way to the tunnel. On a previous trip the tower Tec fridge door (heavy with too much stuff) flew open on a bend and crashed to the floor! We...

A hasty trip up North
So being the proud owner of my Autotrail V-Line 540Se for just over a month it was time for a road trip. But I only have from Thursday 17th Sept and absolutely must be back for the following weekend. So If you live in Surrey it makes sense to point Northwards, perhaps very Northwards (or as my...

Scotland in 14 nights
My in laws love the idea of motor homing but have enjoyed foreign holidays for too long, now cant afford one and are too old to hire one We keep telling them how much they have missed what is so close to home, we really love Scotland, they now say 'we wish we had seen what you have' So, we set...

Nordic travel plans August / September 2017
Much against how I usually do things, I have decided to at least create a route with some timescale for our forthcoming epic trip to Scandanavia The planning has been brought about by the need to find Mum some decent accommodation for the duration, our local nursing home has been OK, but we...

Gallivanting in the Garden........
of England that is! We aimed to set off at 9.30 am, and true to form left home at 1.30pm - so bang on time - for me...... The van is full of alcohol but not much food, as I was told this morning "don't pack much, we're eating out - it's Christmas" :Eeek: 'Crikey' I thought - I've never heard...

Norway. That was a long 'un!
But worth every minute. I was a bit worried about Norway because of other folks' descriptions of it being "a bit Scottish" but it it is, it ain't like any bits of Scotland I've ever seen! We tried to take in a good number of the National Tourist Routes that were nearly all just stunning...

Cliffandger Grand Tour
Well here we are Funster Friends - sitting in van waiting to get in the train - ham sarnies and coffee made - let the tour begin! As usual we left home a little later than expected, so it's been 70mph all the way over - thank goodness no holdups or yours truly would have been in trouble - but...

Lego Land Denmark
We're thinking of going to Legoland, Denmark over the summer. Has anyone been? How does it compare to the UK Legoland? How long would a normal visit last? What is the countryside in the surrounding area like? Is it worth going on to Copenhagen? If so, is there much to see in Malmo in Sweden? We...

On The Road Again.
After spending the last 8 months on my winter quarters, its time to hit the road again. Should be back in the UK for a couple of weeks before heading up to Norway for the summer. The Durango travel trailer will be staying here in Benidorm until I return, keeping my pitch secure from authorised use.

We get a ton of threads from sun seekers heading to France and Spain but what about folk that go the other way into the Scandinavian countries. We quite fancy Denmark, Norway and Sweden for our first big trip next year. So anyone been that way, recommendations on places to stay? Any weird...

Meandering in France with no clear destination....
Well hello all. Yesterday we left home under very grey skies, which brightened up the further east we went, and as we entered the tunnel it was positively blue skies all the way. We came out the other side and the very grey skies had returned, with a helping of rain as well! We decided...

Well I think we are, crossed to Dieppe this morning not really sure where we are going but sort of fancy finishing off the trip down through Portugal we started last Oct/Nov. First stop found a little gem of an Aire at Courville-Sur-Eure and it's the right price for a FLT.

Came off the ferry at Dieppe this afternoon straight into a pea souper cleared up after a few miles. Drove the rest of the day in brilliant sunshine with temps of 14 - 15°. Tried a different Aire for our first stop a a few km south of Nonancourt at Brezolles. A nice walled area next to the lake...
