Places in France - I live by the coast in NW Brittany and rent our place out in summer and generally stay local (2-3hrs) Lots of places to go, many free, so many to list. freebies - Gouarec, Josselin, Malestroit, Gacilly, many around Douarnanez, many within 1-2miles of here,. lots and lots.
Hi Kev , not quite sure that’s correct , there are some exceptions , but it’s not the norm from what I can see at present ? Would be very happy to be corrected , the Schengen rule is still very much valid .. 👍🙂 manzanareslawyers.com/blog/stay-spain-90-days/
🐩🐩🐾🐾oh how I wish we could ! ❤️ we take them to a local groomer before we travel and have them clipped right back, their hair doesn’t grow fast it’s a brush up daily 🙂 on return to the uk , they generally have an appointment pre booked with our groomer to clip them back 🐩🐩❤️ thanks for watching and commenting 🙂
Great vlog as usual,Corrin it would be very helpful to have more info on pet health cert as we are planning our first ever trip over to france in Sept! (And fairly new to MH) Is it easy to book into a french vet for Tape worm before return journey x Many thanks and safe travels xx
Good morning Dawn ! We do plan a vlog very soon with the process we went through 🙂🐩🐩🐾 we’ve always gone to Brugge for our worming , but this time it’ll be France , so we will find a vet and share this too, it’ll be well before your travel date , so hopefully will be of help ! Exciting times ahead ! ❤️🐩🐩🐾🐾
Our 90 day allowance this time is up at start of March, which means our next 3 month allowance starts on 31st May, so we can go to back into the EU for another 3 months
Good evening ! The car park is a free stop, all of the local campsites were ‘completo’ which means full , we couldn’t even pop in to service the van, but the car park was just fine ❤️❤️🥰 , and a lovely area x
Hi guys. Watched your great Vlog all the way through, but now sadly I hate you both because you are living my dream. Lol Keep them coming. How is your other dog after that attack.? Regards Pat and Sar.x
😂🐩🐾🐾hi guys ! Thanks for watching , much appreciated, Dolly has recovered amazingly well, she is so brave and it hasn’t left her scared of other dogs , it’s probably affected us more ❤️❤️🐾🐾 but alls good 🇪🇸🌞 xx

Having a catch up tonight and it's really good to learn more about you both through your Q&A, what a good idea! Lovely location and so nice to see the dogs running around and having the time of their lives ❤ We're stunned at the amazing drone work as well 🤩💕
Hi enjoying channel and your spain travels, you mentioned that you could do a check list for dogs passports etc. Could you send me some info please? Thanks
Good evening ! ❤️ we are planning a little vlog on this subject , the vet we use is amazing and has a website that’s really informative and useful , and it would be worth sending an email , hope that helps , but we will get a vlog up soon , as it’s quite a popular topic ❤️🐩🐩🐾🐾 here’s the link 🙂 www.dierenartsderycke.be/
Thanks for that behind the scenes video, good to see the everyday rather than just the glamour 😂 It would be great to have an update on pet passports and animal health certificates please
❤️ good evening ! We avoided tolls where we could , so perhaps not a fair representation for you 🙂 if you go to Michelin maps online , you can put your details in there and it should give you the approx cost , it does vary with the size and weight of your motorhome too ! Hope that helps, we will provide a breakdown of costs on completion of our travels 🙂🙂 safe journey to Benidorm xx
It was a chew and spew burger to be fair 🤮 it was a tad green , no idea what it was, and I didn’t notice Mrs Redders steal my but either , but to be honest, she was very welcome 😂😂

Hi Corrin Paul Dolly and Pippa Loved your blog, great as usual. Also lovely to know a little bit about your lives van and future ideas. We are at a camp El Rocio. Lovely camp but the town is very interesting. Plenty of sand as it as the whole town is used for religious festivals around Easter Pentecost and Christmas, and they use horses and wagons and carts. The church is very unique and very beautiful. Definitely worth a visit when you are next in Spain. We are heading into Portugal tomorrow. We are starting the journey north. Please Corrin I would love to learn more about Animal Health certificates and their passport, and the exit procedure for the UK with tape worm tablets. Have a great couple of days around Alicante. We look forward to your next instalment Kate Pierre and Tasha xxxx
Hi Guys ! Wow it sounds amazing where you are , just what we like ! ❤️ safe travels into Portugal, and yes, that is a very good idea and we shall look to do a vlog on how it all works 🐩🐩🐾🐾❤️ much appreciated xx
We're planning to go to Germany in September with our dog, so any advice on dog passports etc would be really helpful. We're going to the NEC next week and I was planning to get a rechargeable vacuum, can I ask which one you tried and didn't like so I can avoid it. Love your videos 😊
Good morning and thanks so much ❤️ dog passports is a must do judging by the lovely comments 🐩🐩🐾🐾 enjoy the NEC , the vacuum was a voltenic , it was good on hard floors, just poor on carpets and rugs, so we chose not to do a review ! Safe travels for 2024 xx
I always brush out with a dustpan and brush every morning on holiday. Sand and dust unavoidable. Vacuums just doesn't do the job, I agree. Enjoy the rest of your journey 😊
Another very enjoyable watch👍 Have you guys any plans to do a review on the Starlink, how it works/what it costs etc etc Keep hearing a lot of people talking about it, but never really understood it. Thanks.
Hey lovelies ❤ I hate admin days feels like a waste for us especially when we’re on limited time !! 😭 those burgers definitely said they had chicken in ! 🤔 I thought they looked scrummy ! What a shame 😭 I was looking forward to the review on those 🤣 Looked like a very busy site too 😃 made us very bloody jealous sitting out in the sun! 😣😭😭 temps are dropping again here 🥶 xxx 😘
Got to enjoy a down day every now and again, just sitting and watching the world go by, great idea for the starlink cheap and easy, I'd definitely eat them burgers but I must admit it was hard to see if they was cooked properly being green, as for the miles I think the more times you travel the more you learn what you really want from it, so I think we tend to automatically start cutting down, my wife and I have been to Spain many times and always enjoyed but nowadays I can't bring myself to drive past France to get there as over the years we've learnt that France satisfies our requirements, on saying that it's Belgium on Sunday and Denmark later on , anyway another enjoyable vlog keep them coming 👍
❤️slowing down and taking it easy made easier when the sun shines 🙂🌞 , Belgium is lovely and Denmark too, we wish you safe travels on your journey , and the burger was green before and after cooking , and tasted of cardboard 🤢😂😂
Thanks for another great vlog guys, Mandy and I have been plucking up courage for a while now and seeing you visiting such nice locations on a reasonable budget is nudging us ever closer to catching the ferry. We really like your relaxed style and sense of fun.
We have slowed right down on our milage as well. When I first got my van, very excited we drove miles but now learning to slow down. Anywhere in France is great. we drove from dieppe to Spain to the west of Paris took 10 days no tolls or motorways it was fantastic.
Easy day for us old Redders's today Young Redders's . Washed the bedding in our little twin tub but apart from that , same as you . We live entirely on our pension but being old and decrepid we get add ones to top us up . Our home is a chalet on a residential park so a permanent address but the freedom to travel (even in our old age) which we do for six or seven months of the year . Nice to here how you get by . Great vlog .
Morning ole Redders ❤️ that’s a lovely relaxed way of life , absolutely brilliant, and travelling on top too ! Safe travels and thanks for the lovely comments xx young Redders 🥰
❤️good morning, we shall feature it more in our vlogs , seems to be quite popular 🥰 it’s a mini oven, so for instance we had chicken and veg from it last night, it warms croissants , cooks cake , quite versatile .. will do more with it 🙂🙂❤️
Morning ! ❤️ it’s great fun trying to battle it , especially when the dogs are made of Velcro 🐩🐩😂 , but for sure, good ole dustpan and brush is the winner ❤️❤️🙂
Hi guys, good to see that you're enjoying yourselves! Very pleased with your review of the S1500 power bank. I hooked it up to our Ecoflow solar panels and managed to get 110 Watts input. This will prove useful in July when we visit the Vanlove Fest, also in June when we go to the Out There Festival in Gt Yarmouth. Lots of other trips booked before our 3 weeks away in September. In terms of cleaning the van we use a Merlin Pro 2 vacuum cleaner. We saw it demonstrated at the NEC and we were very impressed. Stay safe and enjoy the warmth. It's cool here with significant snow forecast for us tomorrow (Thursday). Krs Sid and Nicola.
Good morning guys ! Amazing, that’s a nice bit of input, it’s a great unit for sure 🙂 I double up the panels on mine and it’ll go up to around 150 input via the built in controller , so that’s not too bad.. ! Thanks for the tip on the vacuum , we will take a look in October at the NEC , but for now the old pan and brush is doing just fine , especially with Velcro dogs 🐩🐩😂😂❤️
OMG Corrins' done it again, I saw that sneaky "help yourself" to a piece of Redders burger whilst you had your own as well. It will be interesting to see how you try and justify that one next time.
😂😂 I didn’t even notice that , my goodness .. it’ll need addressing both in the next vlog and also in front of me during an appropriate disciplinary investigation 😂😂😂 well spotted xx tasted like cardboard anyway ! 🤢😂
ola Reds in espania : about the questions & answer, one:: how do you find these small towns you visit, you take a look on a map (google) en two: doe you mark all the places you where and keep a sort of (digital)logbook ? :-) i still have the maps (paper) when i went on my vespa, no phone, no internet, to Cartagena , market all the roads i was on en where i slept, and so on. ;-) show you the one pic i have by fb... so enjoy the time there, and i didn't like the green burger, go and find a small local spanish place to eat cheap :-) have funn !
❤️good morning ! We really don’t make many plans, we work off of recommendations and a few apps, search 4 sites , park 4 nights , and generally read up as best we can , modern tech has made it a bit easier 🙂 the green burger was a bit like cardboard 🤢🤢😂
Hi guys. Everyone needs to chill sometime. 😀 I loved that Starlink bracket. Great for £13. I didn't know you were ex-fire service. Were you one of the guys stiffed by the pension fiasco? I'm glad your union sorted it - they're better than a lot of others who rolled over. Thanks again, Tommo
Hi guys. Lovely video as always. Thank you for letting us into your lives and answering questions. If you come down to Cornwall, please come down near Newquay. Hopefully, we might be fortunate to bump onto you. We are not on social media, just TH-cam for us. What great lives you have, so lucky 😊 xx
Another lovely chilled vlog from sunny Spain guys 😎🏝️giving us plenty of ideas for our travels 👍 Spain seems to be the way forward January to mid March easing us into spring in the uk 🇬🇧 looking forward to the next one 😎👍❤️
Hi once again,thanks for a very informative blog.especially about your power bank.we have a similar set up which we use,it's an Eco Fxxx which we recharge with a 400 watt solar.once again a big thankyou.looking forward to your next move.
Hiya guys you looked nice and chilled in your van, we all have days when the jobs you have put off or dont like need doing still enjoy watching you even on quieter days, and chilling in the van means your not spending money lol 😂😂😂 Enjoy the sun its been raining here today got wet going to work 🙄 Take Care and give them pesky pets a treat lol xx
Hi Julie ! Thankyou ❤️ yes , one of those days , but the sun helps 🙂 the uk weather looks a bit bad at the moment ⛈️ stay safe out there ! Next update on Thursday xx
We love El Campello stayed at camping Bon Sol in june last year for 2 weeks during our 3 month tour with our caravan and swam in the sea most days after cycling the via verdes
Hi Gilly, it’s lovely here , but a few days of drizzle forecast , which the locals say is much needed xx stay safe in the uk , seems a bit chaotic weather at the moment ❤️
Really enjoyed this one as you answered all the questions I’ve been wondering since we been watching you both . What’s even funnier is while we have been discussing it, I guessed most of it 🤣🤣👍 Keep up the good work 👍
Hi planning a trip down to Spain in mid September for the first time. any think you advise about taking out dog Jessie that would be good, great videos , thanks Peter
Hi Peter ! As we mentioned in the vlog , cool mats , usb rechargeable fans , full trim down before coming , water mist and park in the shade 🙂🐾🐩 thanks for watching 👍🥰
Hi ,Re boiler. Did you have a habitation check ? We had an Autograph 745. We had our habitation check done by Brownhills .It was pointed out to us that the Alde heating fluid was discoloured and needed replacing ,we didn't know anything about the colour or the length of life of the fluid ,but there is a two year or a five year product.Anyway we had it changed which it cost £250.00 two years ago for the 5year one .we now have a different van with Truma blow heating .Wishing you luck and best wishes, L+G also izzy the dog from York .Ps it's my birthday today Rob will you sing me a happy birthday please as its not been great 😂 one x
Hi Guys ! We have blown heating so all good thankfully , hab check also done 🙂 and a happy birthday also ! Glad you’ve got your van with decent heating ❤️❤️
Hi Corrin & Paul. Another great video! Thanks for answering all the questions. We didn't actually ask any but you answered some that we had in mind. You have had a lot of courage to completely change your life and do something different. It really does feel like you are jumping off a cliff to start with . We were in our early 50's when we took the decision to take up. offers of work in France, sell up and move there to live. Keep going and safe travels. Jo & Tony
Hi Jo and Tony ! Thanks for watching and commenting, we felt it would be nice for people to know us a little better and ask questions if we can help from our experiences ❤️ so glad you are enjoying what you are doing as much as we do ❤️❤️ it’s a great life xx
Yes, we did enjoy it but we have packed it all in and retired back here to UK now. We didn't travel around though, we lived in one place. What you are doing looks more enjoyable. @@redsgotravels
Yes, we do, we got into motorhoming 20 years ago so that we could come over to see family and friends, but couldn't do much of it as we were busy all summer, snatched a bit of time in the Autumn to come over then back to work. Now we are retired we intend to explore UK and perhaps go back to France and see the many places that we didn't have the chance to go and see when we lived there. When you plan your next trip to France contact us and we may be able to recommend some park ups and sites in the Charente-Maritime area. The Ile D'Oleron has lots of lovely beaches and campsites, It is always very busy in August but really good in the spring and early summer. La Rochelle is a great place to go as is Congnac . If you like seafood the area around Marennes is one of the biggest oyster producing areas in France. Many of the oyster farmers sell their produce direct to the public. so it is very fresh and a lot cheaper. They produce moules as well. If you are really adventurous you can go foot fishing on some of the beaches and pick up all sorts of seafood absolutely free. We have just watched your video in Guadalest . Fabulous scenery and yummy cake!! @@redsgotravels
Wow ! ❤️❤️ Thankyou for all those recommendations, they sound amazing , and so nice you are considering returning on your travels ! We shall bear you in mind xx , and Guadalest was beautiful xx thanks so much once again 🥰🥰🐩🐩🐾🐾
Hi great informational vlogg . Interested with Soda stream , we have one we use at home Interested in if you take the gas bottles with you or have you found/seen any in the supermarkets on your travels?
Good evening ! Thanks for watching and commenting ❤️ we take 2 full cylinders with us, we exchanged one in France at a large supermarket, was ten euros, they also had a huge selection of mixers , far better than the uk ! 🙂
Great, can make your own sparkling wine with it 🥂 bonus. We have planned September tour of Germany and Switzerland with Wooly 🐩 Castles lakes and forests 😍 will be catching up with your Germany videos for tips 😀
Places in France -
I live by the coast in NW Brittany and rent our place out in summer and generally stay local (2-3hrs)
Lots of places to go, many free, so many to list. freebies - Gouarec, Josselin, Malestroit, Gacilly, many around Douarnanez, many within 1-2miles of here,. lots and lots.
Fantastic! Thank you so much, we’ve never been to Brittany so it’s very high on our list, I’ve noted your suggestions
Hi hope yous are good
Which I’m sure yous are ☀️☀️🍷🍷
My mate has told me you can stay in spain for 9months now
Enjoy

Kev
Hi Kev , not quite sure that’s correct , there are some exceptions , but it’s not the norm from what I can see at present ? Would be very happy to be corrected , the Schengen rule is still very much valid .. 👍🙂 manzanareslawyers.com/blog/stay-spain-90-days/
Very interesting and informative vlogs. Many thanks. How do you keep Dolly and Pip groomed while on the road?
🐩🐩🐾🐾oh how I wish we could ! ❤️ we take them to a local groomer before we travel and have them clipped right back, their hair doesn’t grow fast it’s a brush up daily 🙂 on return to the uk , they generally have an appointment pre booked with our groomer to clip them back 🐩🐩❤️ thanks for watching and commenting 🙂
Great vlog as usual,Corrin it would be very helpful to have more info on pet health cert as we are planning our first ever trip over to france in Sept! (And fairly new to MH)

Our 90 day allowance this time is up at start of March, which means our next 3 month allowance starts on 31st May, so we can go to back into the EU for another 3 months
Hi guys, any charge to stay on this overflow car park? Camper park over road (with facilities) is €10 per night...keep enjoying 😎
Good evening ! The car park is a free stop, all of the local campsites were ‘completo’ which means full , we couldn’t even pop in to service the van, but the car park was just fine ❤️❤️🥰 , and a lovely area x

I'd prefer that parkup rather than the big tarmac carpark 😊. Dustpans and brushes are the best 😊. Enjoy your chillout day 😊
Morning ❤️ yes it was a nice park up to be fair, and the pan and brush, tried and trusted 😂
We have slowed right down on our milage as well. When I first got my van, very excited we drove miles but now learning to slow down.

so enjoy the time there, and i didn't like the green burger, go and find a small local spanish place to eat cheap :-) have funn !
❤️good morning ! We really don’t make many plans, we work off of recommendations and a few apps, search 4 sites , park 4 nights , and generally read up as best we can , modern tech has made it a bit easier 🙂 the green burger was a bit like cardboard 🤢🤢😂
Hi guys. Everyone needs to chill sometime. 😀 I loved that Starlink bracket. Great for £13. I didn't know you were ex-fire service. Were you one of the guys stiffed by the pension fiasco? I'm glad your union sorted it - they're better than a lot of others who rolled over. Thanks again, Tommo
Hi Tommo ! Thanks for watching , yes I’m still owed 18 months due to tapering , hopefully 🤞 resolved soon ! Only been 4 years 😬✊❤️
Hi Reds Thanks for the videos. Do you have Firestick or a smart TV if so dose your Starlink work with them.
Hi the starlink has its own router, so it gives a wifi signal, works perfectly with fire stick, laptops , iPads etc 👍🙂
Hi guys. Lovely video as always. Thank you for letting us into your lives and answering questions. If you come down to Cornwall, please come down near Newquay. Hopefully, we might be fortunate to bump onto you. We are not on social media, just TH-cam for us.

@@redsgotravels 😊
Great video. Great share
Thankyou 🙂 glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Really enjoyed this one as you answered all the questions I’ve been wondering since we been watching you both . What’s even funnier is while we have been discussing it, I guessed most of it 🤣🤣👍 Keep up the good work 👍
😂😂that’s so weird , and funny , glad you guessed right , was it that easy ? 😂😂❤️
@@redsgotravels the wife has been saying ex policeman for ages but I’ve always said, fireman! Brilliant 🤣🤣🤣👍
😂 glad you got it right , you need to have a quiet word 😂😂🔥🔥🚒
We use a Dyson in our van.
Well done on the 30 years in the Fire Service. My Father in Law was a fireman for all of his working life.
Hi Rob ❤️ Thankyou 🚒🚒🔥 Dyson is great , can you recharge it off grid ? 👍🙂 some do have usb sockets 🙂
We just charge it off the inverter, doesn’t take long to be fair.
I’m fairly certain you can charge off the 12v though which I’ll look into doing.
@robturner3546 thanks Rob , much appreciated 👍🙂
Hi planning a trip down to Spain in mid September for the first time. any think you advise about taking out dog Jessie that would be good, great videos , thanks Peter
Hi Peter ! As we mentioned in the vlog , cool mats , usb rechargeable fans , full trim down before coming , water mist and park in the shade 🙂🐾🐩 thanks for watching 👍🥰
We use a brilliant coolcoat as our Spaniel won't sit still enough for a coolmat 😅
@carolynford2548 that sounds interesting, I’ll have to look it up ! Thankyou x
Great Vlog, really interested in the Pet passport
Good evening ! That’s been suggested a few times and is a really great suggestion ! We will make it happen soon 🐩🐩🐾🐾🥰
Hi ,Re boiler. Did you have a habitation check ? We had an Autograph 745. We had our habitation check done by Brownhills .It was pointed out to us that the Alde heating fluid was discoloured and needed replacing ,we didn't know anything about the colour or the length of life of the fluid ,but there is a two year or a five year product.Anyway we had it changed which it cost £250.00 two years ago for the 5year one .we now have a different van with Truma blow heating .Wishing you luck and best wishes, L+G also izzy the dog from York .Ps it's my birthday today Rob will you sing me a happy birthday please as its not been great 😂 one x
Hi Guys ! We have blown heating so all good thankfully , hab check also done 🙂 and a happy birthday also ! Glad you’ve got your van with decent heating ❤️❤️
Can we meet up if possible
Hi Chris ! We are in Guadalest at the moment, moving on soon ❤️
Hi Corrin & Paul. Another great video! Thanks for answering all the questions. We didn't actually ask any but you answered some that we had in mind. You have had a lot of courage to completely change your life and do something different. It really does feel like you are jumping off a cliff to start with . We were in our early 50's when we took the decision to take up. offers of work in France, sell up and move there to live. Keep going and safe travels. Jo & Tony
Hi Jo and Tony ! Thanks for watching and commenting, we felt it would be nice for people to know us a little better and ask questions if we can help from our experiences ❤️ so glad you are enjoying what you are doing as much as we do ❤️❤️ it’s a great life xx
Yes, we did enjoy it but we have packed it all in and retired back here to UK now. We didn't travel around though, we lived in one place. What you are doing looks more enjoyable. @@redsgotravels
Still a lovely experience though ❤️ and no doubt you still enjoy travelling in the uk ❤️❤️🙂 x
Yes, we do, we got into motorhoming 20 years ago so that we could come over to see family and friends, but couldn't do much of it as we were busy all summer, snatched a bit of time in the Autumn to come over then back to work. Now we are retired we intend to explore UK and perhaps go back to France and see the many places that we didn't have the chance to go and see when we lived there. When you plan your next trip to France contact us and we may be able to recommend some park ups and sites in the Charente-Maritime area. The Ile D'Oleron has lots of lovely beaches and campsites, It is always very busy in August but really good in the spring and early summer. La Rochelle is a great place to go as is Congnac . If you like seafood the area around Marennes is one of the biggest oyster producing areas in France. Many of the oyster farmers sell their produce direct to the public. so it is very fresh and a lot cheaper. They produce moules as well. If you are really adventurous you can go foot fishing on some of the beaches and pick up all sorts of seafood absolutely free.
We have just watched your video in Guadalest . Fabulous scenery and yummy cake!! @@redsgotravels
Wow ! ❤️❤️ Thankyou for all those recommendations, they sound amazing , and so nice you are considering returning on your travels ! We shall bear you in mind xx , and Guadalest was beautiful xx thanks so much once again 🥰🥰🐩🐩🐾🐾
Hi great informational vlogg . Interested with Soda stream , we have one we use at home Interested in if you take the gas bottles with you or have you found/seen any in the supermarkets on your travels?
Good evening ! Thanks for watching and commenting ❤️ we take 2 full cylinders with us, we exchanged one in France at a large supermarket, was ten euros, they also had a huge selection of mixers , far better than the uk ! 🙂
Great, can make your own sparkling wine with it 🥂 bonus. We have planned September tour of Germany and Switzerland with Wooly 🐩 Castles lakes and forests 😍 will be catching up with your Germany videos for tips 😀
Oh wow , that sounds amazing ! And thank you for watching , it really helps, safe travels to you all and Wooly 🐩🐩🐾🐾🥰
Great vlog, we have the same asda air fryer, we paid £2.50 for it using our Asda rewards 😁
Now that is a bargain ! They are great aren’t they ! ❤️
They definitely are 😊 I also meant to say we use a silicone broom to sweep our van out, along with a dustpan & brush 🧹
@rockinmohoadventures cannot beat the cheapest and most traditional method ! 🙂❤️
