Lovely few days away in Martha to visit friends in Gloucestershire and Shropshire. A couple of nights nr Slimbridge at riverside campsite. A cycle to Frampton for a b**r (or two) and a visit to Slimbridge WWT and a fun canoe around the wetlands. Then off to Shrewsbury for a night. What a delightful town it is. Definitely will visit again. Then a 5hr leisurely drive back through Wales to Devon 😊 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🍺 ☀️

We took Mini-Martha for an adventure last weekend. We went to one of our favourite pitch-ups, Stephen’s Field, went to one of our favourite pubs, Pigs Nose Inn, to see one of our favourite bands Land of the Giants. What a weekend!

We’ve been home for just over a month but have really missed being away in Martha. However, we’ve made the best of this fabulous weather in July, and living in the South West we didn’t have to travel far to find some fun in the sun 🌞
A weekend festival in Hennock with Penny the VDub, a drive across Dartmoor to Tavistock, a trip across the river to Dartmouth, a day by the beautiful Shoalstone swimming pool, our annual visit to Paignton Zoo and finally a few days away at Roadford Lake. What will August bring……

Our final stopover !! We parked up in the Aire just a few minutes from the lovely fishing town of Paimpol. Another gloriously sunny day to sit back enjoy a delicious lunch and watch the world go by. Headed back into town in the evening for drinks by the harbour and stumbled across a great pub to watch the rugby :0)
Next stop is home…

We promised ourselves a beach holiday at the end of our trip and we couldn’t have picked a better spot. Saint Michel Erquy has been a delight ! Beautiful beaches and walks. Cycle paths aplenty and two guingettes a stones throw from our pitch. It has been HOT !! and Finn has been great. We’ve been keeping him in the shade, cool and watered and zoomies on the beach at sundown. Moving on tomorrow for one more stopover.

Lush few days exploring St Malo. The streets of the walled city are alive with amazing sounds, smells, music and people. Enjoyed a few galettes with various fillings and walked the ramparts. The beaches are delightful and there’s even a sea pool ! Really enjoyed the area around the campsite. Saw lots of live music outside the bars and restaurants. The 39-45 WW2 memorial was well worth a visit. Oh and crashed a wedding at the cathedral 😊 ☀️ 🍺 🎶 🏖️ 🍷.

Wow, what a place ! Wasn’t on our radar until we decided to go to St Malo, so made the hours drive into Normandy from Rennes to stay for a night and visit Mont St Michel. It’s certainly stops you in your tracks when you first see. The walk was a pleasant 5km along the canal past the dam and then the bridge to the island. It was busy but not too bad and we were lucky to find a table for lunch on the ramparts with a view across the bay. And the abbey is a must for €16. Definitely one of the highlights of the trip 😊 🇫🇷 🍷 ☀️

As much as we don’t want to think about our adventure coming to an end, we need to do some planning to make sure Finn has his paperwork signed and has his tapeworm tablet in the right timeframe, so we drove 140 miles northwest to Rennes to get us closer to our final destination.
The Camping des Gayeulles was a good find, with easy access to the wooded park next door with a Guinguette overlooking the lake.
We walked in to Rennes as Finn wasn’t allowed on the bus, and dogs have to be carried in a bag on the Metro and we didn’t have a bag big enough!! Hubster did suggest we get a big bag and cut four holes for his legs so he would technically be in a bag lol 🤭
The historic centre of Rennes was fab to walk around, and we had a delicious Plat du Jour. Everyone we’ve met has been brilliant with Finn, and he usually gets served before us, but we were unlucky enough to meet an unhelpful taxi driver who said Finn would have to travel in the boot of his saloon car 😡. 40 degree temperatures are expected in the next few days, so we plan to head north to the coast where it is cooler.
