Some of the best village ramparts in France
The Alignnements de Carnac stretch for several kilometers and contain thousands of standing stones of all sizes
Excellent wild camp in car park directly below this impressive iron age hill fort
Marvao is stunning. It floats a thousand feet above the surrounding countryside with views in all directions
Another amazing stopover on a pier on the River Nith below Dumfries
Approaching Dartmouth on the Kingsweir Ferry.
What an amazing place to spend a couple of nights. Hats off to Torridge DC for doing this.
We sat in Bertie and scoffed our fish and chips with this view across the mouth of the River Lossie towards Buckie and Ben Rhynnie
Looking back to Cullen from the viaduct with Seatown in the foreground
An amazing wild camping location on the Banffshire Coast. Walks, beach, birds, caves what more could you want?
View from the Miradour over a small town in the Alpuharras near Almeria.
There is a glorious carpark beside the little village of Cabo de Gata where you can park right beside the beach. The sunsets are stunning
The lovely little aire was in a tiny village in the heart of Burgundy
A lovely spot at the top of the hill between the Tay Valley and the Tummel Valley.
There is a large aire on the edge of this little town. The town dates back to C9 and is well worth a visit.
On the road again. The weather has turned cooler with some cloud and quite a strong wind. Last night the temperature in Castalla went down to around 5c but we had been forwarned and I fitted Bertie’s windy warmer which is a padded screen that goes around the outside the windscreen and the front side windows.

We woke to bright sunshine or at least the promise of bright sunshine once the sun had climbed high enough. The plan for today was to spend the morning enjoying the sights of Guadalest. The view from the car park is just as stunning as it was last night. We looked up to the castle rock and wondered if that was going to a challenging climb. In the event it was an easy wander through the little village to the
We are still here! In the end we decided to stay for a couple more days in order to have time to explore the town of Gandia and especially the Ducal Palace of the Borjas (Italian spelling is Borgias – same family). We had read about this and thought it looked interesting. Gandia is 4.5kms away and there is an easy cycle path through the orange groves and along an old railway track now converted to a cycle path.

We have been in one place for 10 days. I think this is the longest we have ever stayed on Bertie in one place! In some ways it has been really relaxing not worrying about where to go next, where to get fuel, where to service Bertie etc etc. It has also been good to have time to get to know other motorhomers and have time to chat and visit other vans. However I am begining to hunger for new
I am going to write up several days in one blog post as I have got a bit behind. We had two days on a lovely free aire in Simat de le Valldigna which was great but had a dreadful mobile signal. Now we are parked up in a really nice, paid for, aire on the coast close to Gandia about 20 miles north of Denia. Free wifi and loads of mobile signal. When I last blogged we had not
