France in Convoy 2018

In the Dordogne

November 2, 2018June 25, 2019 - Margaret 23 Comments

Mary goes off piste and the satnav turns filthy After we left Moissac, Mary decided that it was time she branched out on her own and did a bit of solo exploring. France is a wonderful country for motorhomers and you are spoiled for choice with numerous places to park up for the night inRead more

LaBastide d’Armagnac and Moissac

October 24, 2018March 12, 2019 - Margaret 13 Comments

Misty moisty mornings and hot afternoons It’s autumn in France and we’re struggling to adjust to the rapid changes of temperature that each day brings. The one who does the morning dog walk puts on a variety of warm clothes and leaves the van reluctantly with two excited little dogs. Before long all three returnRead more

From the weird to the wonderful and back again We planned to be in Spain for just over a week, giving Mary the chance to find out a bit about touring there and also to visit Chris in Sitges. It came as a surprise to discover the variety of experiences you can get in oneRead more

Carcassone and Collioure

October 12, 2018March 4, 2022 - Margaret 16 Comments

Culture, climbing and curious encounters Recently I mentioned the heat… Carcassonne was even hotter and it was full of people. There were the usual tourists supplemented by some sort of huge get together for young entrepreneurs. Add to that coach loads of school children and you get the picture – the narrow streets of theRead more

Chusclan Cave and Sommieres

October 6, 2018March 12, 2019 - Margaret 9 Comments

Taking time to live the simple life There were a few places we really wanted to show Mary on our tour around France and one of them was Chusclan. This was one of the first Aires we ever tried and the generosity of the local wine co-operative amazed us. Since then we have visited manyRead more

Cormatin, Taizé and Domaine Paire Vineyard

September 29, 2018March 12, 2019 - Margaret 13 Comments

Water, wine and wonder It was Shirley’s birthday when we rolled up at Camping le Hameau in Cormatin. This is one of our ultimate favourite places and we try to call by on almost every trip through France. A big part of the appeal is its proximity to TaizĂ©, the place we return to timeRead more

Riqueval and Chaource

September 24, 2018March 12, 2019 - Margaret 6 Comments

What’s around the next corner? We left Watten Aire in the sunshine after talking to a man who had been there for four weeks. He had driven over from the UK in his big twin axle A class motorhome and settled down 25 miles from the English Channel for his holiday. He loved it there.Read more

Off in convoy

September 19, 2018September 21, 2018 - Margaret 34 Comments

We left Scotland in convoy with our friend Mary who travels solo in her lovely Hymer motorhome. We had planned a trip to show her the ropes of motorhoming in France and beyond and to offer a bit of companionship on her first trip abroad in the van. Now that we live in the southRead more
