I thought I could trust the Garmin 660 Caravan Club special edition satnav but today it took us down a blind alley near to Berwick Seaview. Apparently we were the 3rd people in a week that had been wrongly directed and we managed to turn around another unsuspecting victim before he fell into the trap. We ended up next to a…
Literally tucked away in mature woodland this small site is a wonderful venue for those who enjoy peace and quiet in the countryside. We recently spent 4 nights at this gently sloping site with most of the pitches being hardstandings but a fair proportion will require the use of ramps or the like for lateral levelling of…
These are photographs of the Marais Poitevin because the story would only allow me to post 5.
We arranged a last minute holiday at Couchill Farm (CL500). Scenery great, very interesting nature reserve, trams to play with, what more could you want. Near to coming home time I was taken ill John and Juliet "sorted" my wife and myself out and even wrote a letter a little while later hoping I was OK again. Many thanks…
We are currently caravanning in France our first time for 26 years. A few days after our arrival at a very pleasant Loire valley site (from the camping cheques book) we were robbed in our sleep along with 3 other outfits, 2 British and 1 Dutch. The perpetrators moved our caravan steps to a window and opened this from the…
We travel frequently between the UK and France and often vary our ferry crossing – depending on dates and, of course, the prices. In recent years we have tried to spend time on our journeys rather than rush. In early March of this year we decided to spend a few days around the port of Saint Malo and to explore the seaside…
This short story is of my trip as a lone motorhomer from SW France to Roscoff in early July last year. Rather than just rush for the ferry I decided to take my time and visit a couple of places I had always wanted to see on the way. From our base in South West France I travelled up to Poitou-Charente to spend a few days…
Everywhere gets booked up during a Bank Holiday weekend and Caravan Club sites are no different. Just as we left Coniston the pitches were filling up as quickly as they were being vacated. Time for us to escape the crowds. We chose to spend the weekend at a certificated location on our way south. The CL that we chose was…
I want to thank and compliment the wardens at Great Yarmouth who were wonderful to me and my partner. My partner had an accident and went into the local hospital for 6 days, because of complications I had to stay 24/7 with him. Being in a strange town and not having family near this was very difficult. Judy and Eddie…
I wish I could make up my mind easily when planning trips away, though the deliberations this time were not entirely my own doing. Herself is working the BH weekend so we are unable to get away until Monday. Plan A was the CC at Bromyard site just on the wrong side of Offa's Dyke. The site was the right side of £20 per…
