Calais Aire for the evening before Le Shuttle back to the UK in the morning.

Room for about 100 vans, well marked pitches but just feels like a grey dusty big of waste ground.

1-3rd October 2026

Having left Graeme and Sandra’s in the Plazac we headed North to a small town east of Rockford.

The Camping Val de Boutonne site is by a small sports lake with paddle boarding, canoes etc. Setup then moved as we found that part of the site had no power since the thunderstorm storm the days before.

A couple of nights out of the van at Graeme and Sandra’s house in Plazac within the Dordogne region.

Graeme was my best man and I have just been his some 36 years later.

One night at Camping Les Chambons in Argenton-sur-Creuse to breakup the long drive south.

Small site by the river in a town with a Roman amphitheatre up on the hill above. We had a walk around town on arrival that was a mix of modern businesses with old houses and mills along the river side.

Met up with the Milfords for the weekend, nice quiet site with a lovely restaurant on site.

It was a long drive down and we did not arrive until almost 5, so a chilled evening chatting.
