'My Spanish Home' I bought a dodgy Transit from a daycent travellin' man Where Corrib waters gush and flush out into Galway Bay A pair of fashionistas, all honour-bound by time We huffed and puffed and spittle-shook a dodgy Transit price. With ten days work I readied her for off-grid life in Spain A cooker, sink, a fridge, a bed and solar on the roof From Dublin Port to Holyhead and Dover to Calais Then south for Paris and Toulouse and through the Pyrenees. A week in Barcelona spent rambling through the streets The 'Keys of Vilanova' were completely unforseen I picked a baker's dozen from Valentia's orange groves And swam in crystal waters at the Algar waterfall. Intempo Tower at Benidorm I captured through the lens My DJI above the beach turned tourist into friend The breakfast in La Zenia reminded me of home The fullest Irish platter served with sun-kissed Kerrygold. Cartagena, Almeria and then Roquetas de Mar Nerja, Rincon del Victoria and south of Malaga After almost nineteen hundred miles and three months on the road I found a spot on 'Scabby Beach' and parked my Spanish home.
Thanks Roger , it was great to get some sunshine and see the beach , although surprisingly not a patch on the beaches of the Costa Blanca. We're in the mountains again at the moment so the big coats are out again. Thanks for watching as always Helen and Martin
Thank you guys. I recognised the love you have for Spain, I lived there for 7 years and loved every minute of it. Thank you for taking us on this wonderful holiday. Very best wishes Mike and Donna xx
Thankyou for sharing your time on Malaga Beach Area, we are embarking on 4 month road trip around Iberia from Sep 23-Jan 24 and have booked 7 nights at this site over the New Year period. Best wishes from The Flying Baguette
Sounds like a great trip , we loved there we have stayed a couple of time , nice walk along the sea front. Thanks for watching best wishes and safe travels Helen and Martin.
Quirkiness personified! Loved the look & feel of the site and right on the beach too! Poppy does flamenco Helen sounded a bit croaky, I do hope that was due to the cerveza 🍺 Keep em comin 👍
She's always like in a morning guys , nothing works until after the second coffee and 10 woodbines ( just joking she's a non smoker) . Thanks for watching H and M
You can take Yorkshire folk of Yorkshire , but you'll never stop them enjoying a beer and a curry. Not to the levels of the old Flouch Indian Restaurant, which as our favourite and one of the reasons why we moved , the Flouch closed and life ended was we new it 😂😂😂😂😂. Thanks for watching Helen and Martin
Very informative thank you I'm not sure what time of year that you were there but I'm guessing around March maybe you mentioned that the season hadn't started yet so possibly April anyway loved thanks😊
Hi Good morning , we've been to Malaga twice once in December and once in April, the latter being when the video was made. We really enjoyed both times with December being the busier of the two, but not overwhelmingly so. Thanks very much for watching , Happy New Year Helen and Martin
Thanks Brenda we stayed at Nerja the stop before Malaga , but a short stop over and a little look around nice place though. We thought we might go there again next time. Thanks very much for watching best wishes and commenting we really appreciated it. Helen and Martin
Hi. - this is the website , there is a find us page. It’s worth booking here it’s very popular. www.areamalagabeach.com/en/ . Best wishes Helen and Martin
Hi it was April 2022 , we returned there in December 2022 and it was just as nice weather wise. Hope that helps thanks for watching , if you are considering this site , it’s popular and worth booking - this is the link www.areamalagabeach.com/en/ . Best wishes Helen and Martin
Hi Wayne , this will depend on time and date of travel. Our trip over this month on Le Shuttle for adults , in a 7.5m motorhome cost £194.18. Hope that gives you some idea. We did a video about 5 months ago which compares the routes, ferries and Le Shuttle and the costs associated with each option. th-cam.com/video/qz8QPgkfUR8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=-tJCMx9IBA6XYTYf which you might find interesting . Best wishes Helen and Martin
Helen you mentioned personal tracking app for making sure you are both safe do you mind telling me why one you use. We are also considering one but not sure what’s the best one to get. Thanks.
Hi Lynn, we both use Apple I phones so use the App Find My IPhone. As long as we have our phones with us we can find each other as our locations are displayed on a map. You can also use it for other Apple products, I Pads etc. it’s great if, for example Martin goes out really early taking photos I can go out and find him. I think Find My Friends is a similar thing. It just gives us peace of mind. We also have Apple Air tags, which we put in kit, rucksacks etc and also in a small holder on the dogs collar, again you can track through Find my IPhone as well. Hope this helps, thanks very much for watching. Helen & Martin.
We're not certain , but here is the website link if you want to contact the sirte - www.areamalagabeach.com/en/ Best wishes and thanks for watching Helen and Martin
Good morning , I’m not sure is the truthful answer . However this is the website , you could perhaps drop them an email with your enquiry . We did find them quite helpful. www.areamalagabeach.com/en/ Thanks for watching. Best wishes Helen and Martin
Hi Michelle we did book that one , we don't book many however the reviews on the app suggested it and you can book a sea view spot too. It was reasonably full. Thanks for watching, best wishes Helen and Martin,
Super place and I'm glad to see the weather has improved for you and now looks great. Martin , you took some excellent stills on the beach - very scenic. After watching you both enjoying Europe, we're champing at the bit to start our travels - Concierge tomorrow, then Scotland and South West France in late summer. Can't wait!
Enjoy Concierge , the best site in England in our view and the rest of your plans looks exciting to. The weather has been a mixed back and we are in the Mountains again at the moment up high and it 0 -5 degrees at night but scenic and stunning. The photographic options are tremendous. Thanks for watching best wishes H and M
Update on our stay over New Year. We rocked up as planned and was told our booking was cancelled and the site was full. The place is an absolute joke plus it was overcrowded and scruffy. In fact they did us a favour! Not a good experience for us I'm afraid.
Another lovely Vlog. I have not seen a sunrise for over 3 years (since I finished night shifts) and it’s probably time to look at one again now. Seeing your tour reminds us that we should value the high standards on uk campsites. We have only visited a few campsites in France and we noticed the smaller pitches and basic facilities. With everything we have in our vans, this shouldn’t be a problem 😃👍🏻🚐 Trev
Thanks for watching Trev , there some great sites in Europe but I agree they are often rated 3 star, but we find these aires do place you very close to where you want to be and keep costs down on a long trip. You are right though the sites in the Uk are pretty good.
I love the style of your vlog loving the scenery looks so beautiful very envious we are. We are planning a trip around the UK this summer to get us ready for Europe next year hopefully can't wait. Safe travels many blessings
Hi , we have been twice recently both in winter and it was full thankfully we were tipped off to book and did so both times. This is the link the tariffs for this year , you'll see there are options around 6 and 4 amp's. www.areamalagabeach.com/en/tarifas/ . Hope that helps best wishes and thanks for watching. Helen and Martin
Hi - great vlog! Can I ask how much your dog weighs and do you recommmed the dog rucksack you have (I like the fact his front legs seem to be able to pop through) thanks 😊
Hi Angela thanks for watching . The ruck sack is great quality , there are slots for poochie to slide her/his legs through and they are a great idea. We know lots of people that it really works well for . For us it worked great until Poppy was about 18 months old and old enough to start running with us . Since that point she progressively hasn't liked the rucksack in fact if we put her in it , she starts to run and whinge in the sack as we move , so we have just invested in a Buddy Rider in the hope that will work better for us. it's early days on that front. Hope that helps best wishes Helen and Martin
I always enjoy seeing where you’ve been and what you’ve been up to. Malaga looked great and I can’t think of anything better than a curry and a beer on the beach. Now I’ve seen Martin up at the crack of sparrows I’ll appreciate your photography on Instagram a little more 😂. Thanks as always for sharing an interesting video.
Martin's always up at the crack of sparrows , I think we are at the age where there is generally more to get up for than to stay up for. Unless Manchester United are playing like last night of course (we can't help ourselves) . Thanks for watching Sylvia we always appreciate it, best wishes H and M
What a great vlog. We are watching with interest as we haven’t got the courage to go abroad yet! I love a good sunset Liked and subscribed David, Rachel & Roxy 🐾
Much easy here guys than in the UK really , much less traffic and many more options for where to stay. Thanks for joining us and for watching , there is more info on our website about our European Journey and a page where we have answered questions people have asked us about this trip , hope it's helpful in any planning. www.helenandmartinsmotorhometreks.uk/ . Best wishes Helen and Martin
We love all your videos but when Poppy is in her bag it always makes us smile 😊 Lilly was intrigued by the Spanish musicians 😊 think the pitch was high for a dog 😂
Poppy was unsure walking passed the musicians . Poppy was acting up in the sack that day there were parakeets and she wanted to get out and end the species. Thanks for watching H and M
Thanks so much for the quick reply we just ordered one. can you give any details about the chateau you stayed at in france. looks lovely. we are hoping to do 3 month trip next year
Hi Colin - this has all our stops on for that phase of our trip, there are maps photo's etc etc. There are other blogs detailing the phases of our trip to.
