Embarking on a road trip is always an exciting endeavor, but when the driver is accompanied by a trusted navigator, the journey becomes even more thrilling. In this story, we follow the adventures of a driver and his navigator as they set off from Scotland in their motorhome, seeking new experiences, breathtaking landscapes, and unforgettable memories.

The Motorhome: A Home on Wheels

The duo starts their expedition in a state-of-the-art motorhome, equipped with all the necessary amenities for a comfortable and convenient journey. With a cozy bedroom, a fully-equipped kitchen, and a compact bathroom, their motorhome caters to all their needs. This home on wheels allows them to travel at their own pace and explore remote areas that are inaccessible to traditional forms of transportation.

Roaming Through Scotland's Highlands

Their first destination is the majestic Scottish Highlands, famous for its stunning landscapes and rich history. The driver expertly maneuvers through winding roads, revealing breathtaking vistas of lush green valleys, towering mountains, and serene lochs. The navigator keeps a keen eye out for hidden gems, often leading them to quaint villages, ancient castles, and picturesque hiking trails.

A Tale of Ancient Legends

As they venture further into the Highlands, the driver and navigator discover the legendary Loch Ness. Fascinated by the tales of the Loch Ness Monster, they decide to park their motorhome by the loch and engage in monster-hunting activities. Armed with binoculars, cameras, and a sense of adventure, they spend hours scanning the waters in hopes of catching a glimpse of the elusive creature.

English Countryside Charms

Leaving Scotland, our intrepid travelers head south to explore the picturesque countryside of England. They traverse through charming villages, where thatched-roof cottages and blooming gardens can be found around every corner. The navigator guides them to hidden trails through rolling hills, where they experience the peacefulness of nature and encounter friendly locals along the way.

An Unexpected Encounter

While parked in a small village, the driver and navigator stumble upon a local festival celebrating a centuries-old tradition. Curiosity piques their interest, and they decide to immerse themselves in the festivities. They savor traditional delicacies, enjoy lively folk music, and even partake in a traditional dance around the maypole. This unexpected encounter becomes one of the most memorable highlights of their journey.

The Beauty of Wales

Continuing their adventure, our explorers set their sights on the breathtaking landscapes of Wales. They drive along winding coastal roads, marveling at the rugged cliffs that meet the crashing waves below. The navigator's research leads them to hidden beaches, tucked away within coves, where they indulge in peaceful picnics and relish the tranquility of the ocean.

Exploring the Emerald Isle

Crossing the Irish Sea, the driver and navigator find themselves in Ireland – the land of ancient myths and vibrant culture. The motorhome takes them along winding roads through lush green fields and past majestic castles. They explore the vibrant cities of Dublin and Cork, savor traditional Irish cuisine, and even try their hand at playing the bodhrán during a lively pub session.

As their motorhome journey comes to an end, the driver and navigator reflect on the countless memories they've created along the way. From the captivating Scottish Highlands to the charming English countryside, the stunning landscapes of Wales, and the vibrant culture of Ireland, they have truly embraced the spirit of adventure. With hearts full of joy and a sense of fulfillment, they bid farewell to their motorhome, knowing that their unforgettable journey will forever hold a special place in their hearts.

If your dream has always been to travel Europe in a motorhome for an extended period, whether as a sabbatical from work,
by taking early retirement, or you are now retired and able to spend up to 6 months abroad, then Motorhome Adventures - Touring France, Spain and Portugal is the blueprint for that dream.

If you are still at the dreaming stage, at the tentative planning stage, or, determined that this will be the year to set off on that first seriously long adventure, be it a month, three months or six months, then there’s no good reason to hold you back, well, apart from finance, health and the complications we all have in our lives, and this book touches on those hindering topics as well.

Forget the outdated concept of retirement and the boredom of everyday life that being at home may bring, pottering in the garden, watching daytime TV, with the odd holiday thrown in to break the tedium. There’s no need to endure that existence, and every reason not to, especially in these unpredictable economic times, or, if you have a doubt about your long term health.

You may fall into one of the following categories…
You already own a motorhome equipped for extended touring.
You have just bought your first motorhome and are getting it prepared to go.
You may someone still grappling with the myriad different configurations of a motorhome (RV for American readers) before making that purchase,
Or finally, you may be one of the new breed of mainly young self-builders about to take a gap year or earn a living on the road, equipping a van on a budget.

Whatever category you may fit into, the objective for all of us is to head off to new exciting locations to investigate the diverse and incredible history of our unique continent, sample the local cuisine, meeting and making new friends along the way. Day to day life in a motorhome has a rhythm, not a routine, no two days are the same, the place and the people, both local and fellow travellers, make each day interesting and different. The inconveniences, challenges, and difficulties of travelling are far outweighed by the joy of discovery and the sense of freedom.

Follow the journey of two sixty-three year old Scots as they take early retirement and head off in their motorhome, Louis the McLouis, on a six month road trip following the sun through France, Spain and Portugal over the long winter months in search of better weather, good food, and new experiences.

Written in a diary / blog format, this book details their route and experiences on a daily basis on their journey from Argyll, on Scotland’s west coast, to their ultimate destination, Portugal’s Algarve. Once on the continent, the route they take hugs the coast of Normandy, Brittany, the Vendee, over the Pyrenees then to Tarragona on the Spanish Mediterranean coast south, all the way to Gibraltar, before heading into the Algarve in Portugal. Miles driven, places visited, major expenditure, people met, and never to be forgotten experiences, are all presented in a wry, witty, fresh style.

If you are planning a long term trip into Europe for weeks or months, maybe even years, the experience of ‘The Driver’ and his long suffering co-pilot in life, ‘The Navigator,’ will entertain, inform, and hopefully give you the confidence to follow in their footsteps.

This book also contains the following BONUS content...
Map coordinates of every single overnight location, including wild-camping, aires and campsites.

- Links to over 70 YouTube videos showcasing the main towns and cities visited en route.
- Map coordinates of over 70 overnight wildcamping spots, Aires and campsites.
- Tips and tricks known before setting off, and many picked up along the way.
