  • The Slaws enjoy time in Port Grimaud.
    They are staying at Camping de la Plage in their Hobby motorhome Helga ‪@HobbyCaravan‬

    • Travelling through Fra...
    It’s an easy 10 minute cycle ride into Port Grimaud from the campsite. You can walk up the beach, but some parts aren’t dog friendly, so they cycle in on their Raleigh Array ebikes. Slaw pulls their two Lhasa Apso dogs, Billy and Jessie, in the doggyhut trailer. So called the happy trailer as everyone smiles when they see the dogs faces.
    Slaw locks the bikes up with ABUS 540 granit D-locks.
    Breakfast is in Cafè Telline, with a French lesson reminder for Slaw from Mrs Slaw.
    Breakfast is followed by a boat trip around the beautiful canals of Port Grimaud.
    Slaw is in the dog house for having the observational skills of a hamster as Mrs Slaw’s bra strap is on full view through most of the morning 🤦🏻‍♀️
    The Slaws return one evening to have a meal and walk around the beautiful canals lit up, in all their glory. It really is a sight to behold!
    Stay tuned for the next episode of The Slaw’s Adventures in France. A compilation vlog of Camping de la Plage.

    that was great. i used to travel to france for all my holidays, for about 10 years before retiring. Toulouse, with friends, and i found bouzigues. i retired in 2011, moved to toulouse in 2013, and spend lots of time in bouzigues. You're the french tourist industry's best advert.

    Love your videos Mr and Mrs Slaw. Inspired us to do the journey (first one abroad in the motorhome). Didn’t book camping la plage in the end as wanted 40 euros booking fee to make a reservation thought it was a deposit at first but turned out to be just a booking fee and not deducted from your bill (that’s me being tight) Guess they are doing this as so popular. Anyway doing a slightly different route as been to Saintes before then to Millau and down to Port Grimaud. The Mrs reckons my sense of humour is just like Mr Slaws. Keep up the good work work guys. Thanks for posting all your videos.

    What a beautiful ‘little Venice’, it was great following your whole day there through to night time when it looked even more charming lit up. The aerial views of the village really added to the experience too. Thanks for sharing such a great vlog. ATB, Sue x

    Fabulous really miss our evenings in Port Grimaud, looks so quiet this year. We loved the walk from the camp along the beach to Port Grimaud, stopping at the Pizza place on the beach on route! Maybe if Camping De La Plage will give us a pitch for 2022 we will be back

    Wow that village/town looks fantastic, we immediately thought it looks like Venice but the more it went we thought it was better! Great video, the footage of the dogs at the end was the best ever they are hilarious and obviously love the chariot. I’d say that was your best ever video but the best is obviously where you mentioned us! Thanks again for that, the moment we heard our names will live with us for ever- brilliant. Well done for pumping the videos out so frequently that must need a fair bit of beer! Can’t wait for the next one.

    When you went to France through the tunnel did you have to show a return booking ? We want to go to France and Spain in a couple of weeks but we don't want to commit to a return date yet - is that possible? ps Thanks for the first video really enjoyed seeing you going through the Eurotunnel terminal - we last did it with our dog before covid so we see the difference - enjoying going you on your trip - enjoy!
