Our early exit from Collonges-la-Rouges sees us head deeper into southwest France, through the Dordogne. We’re still meandering somewhat rudderless without a plan, although today’s focus is to stock up and catch up on house […]

2024 Day 34 Collonges-la-Rouge
We’re back doing what we love most, using our Les Plus Beaux Villages book as a guide through France’s wildflower bedecked countryside. I can’t express how grateful I am that I randomly spotted our book […]
2024 Day 33 Finally…on the road again
I’ve lost count of how many days we’ve technically been off road, possibly edging towards 10? 14? Even with the hire car, cabin fever set in a while ago, but at last, it’s tantalisingly close […]
2024 Day 28 Saint Robert
Thank God for the hire car. As lovely as Segur-le-Chateau is, there are only so many times you can walk a small space. We take a break from the 100 km round trip to stalk the […]
2024 Day 24 Pompadour
Oh the freedom! With hire car to hand there’s no keeping us in. Setting out in the morning feels reminiscent of escaping lockdown – everything is fresh and new again. First stop is the garage where […]

2024 Day 19 Segur-le-Chateau
We leave the peaceful nook of Saint Martin de Fressengeas this morning. Himself has a plan to fill a 40 litre water tank as a back up – we’ve found the odd Aire with taps […]
2024 Days 17 – 18 Saint-Jean-de-Cole
It’s all coming back to us now, village hopping through France is a gentle way to travel. Not to mention the plethora of boulangeries and cheese that happily pave the way. Even the most basic […]
2024 Day 16 – Creatures and Mortemart
Much excitement as we prepare to visit our first South Western Les Plus Beaux (most beautiful) French village of Mortemart, so named for the ‘dead sea’, aka marshes on which it once it stood. It’s […]
2024 – Days 14 -15 But wait, there’s more
The morning sees us up and packed ready to depart Honfleur. If we haven’t a final destination in mind, we’ve settled on a direction. Logic dictates that we travel South, to ally the cool of […]
