Hi,

Did you have any luck in confirming if the Aires you have chosen will be open and more importantly have the facilities working in Jan, only we couldn't confirm the ones I have shown.

Therefore we have decided that other than the Le Touquet Aire we will be using campsites as if the weather isn't to good we are certain to have electricity and water and waste desposal etc. The offer above is still open if anyone wants a copy of the 19 campsites along or near to the route posted please let me know as i have it in an excel file and it doesn't hold together when posted on here.

Hi just an update we are away at the moment so i won't be able to reply immediately

OK, I've completed another 'proposed' route through France with overnight stops on free Aires trying where possible to keep to around 200 miles a day.
I've plotted it in Autoroute so if anyone wants it I can send it to you, I've also written out the info in a 'Word' document with names/places/alternate places & Lat/Lon GPS readings.
I'd appreciate it if there is one [or more] who is interested, who would have a look at it and see if there is any mistakes, improvements or omissions as I've usually just gone 'on the fly' rather than pre-plan a route in detail.
* At one proposed night stop at TREBES - the info taken from my Aires book[s] don't give precise location details, only as 'promenade du canal du Midi' . . .but from the little picture, it looks a nice place to stop for a night.
- mind you I've only routed as far as 60 miles south of Narbonne as I've no info books on Spanish 'Aires' and we're STILL not sure where in Spain to head for Rolling Eyes
In total we're going for 5 weeks inc travel but it'll only be 3 weeks 'in the sun' with around 4 or 5 days getting there & the same coming back so I didn't want to be ambitious.
Your help will be appreciated. . . by the way, with several threads going on at the same time on Spain - who is planning on going ?


Vic,

I would be interested in having a copy of your route please.

Don

Vic and Enodreven (when you get back) both, we would be most grateful for a copy of your routes and campsites/aires.

We're hoping to leave around the 12th December.

Many thanks to both

I am planning a trip to Spain over Christmas via Calais and think some of the info on this thread might be very useful. The furthest I've been in my new MH is Bury St Edmonds which is about 100 miles so a trip to Spain over Christmas with 4 kids is a bit adventurous, and dare I say it a bit scary.

I'll be reviewing the info on this thread in a bit more detail when I get more time, but for now, I thought I'd register my interest and let people know my plans and invite further help/advice.

We'll be taking a laptop with mobile internet access so will happily 'blog' our adventure if anyone would be interested. Will just need to work out where to post such a blog.

I'll be back on here when I have settled on an itinerary or sooner if anyone has anything they would like me to comment on.

Welcome Fego. I'm sure your trip will go smoothly, especially if you follow the reams of advice on this forum.

Those few of us left in UK over Christmas will look out for your blog and dream on so please do remember to post it. Sad

What do you use to access the internet on the move ?
