I love Sierra Nevada for many reasons….. Size! Size clearly does matter when it comes to ski destinations. For me, Sierra Nevada has a great range of slopes (103 pistes) for all abilities without the fear of getting lost, as well as activities for those not skiing.

Dénia Denia is a port city that has a vibrant cosmopolitan feel with its swanky marina bars but also the romance of its cobbled white washed streets you could easily get lost rambling through!

From these first 2 stops it became apparent just how well catered for we’d be for in our motorhome. Unlike the UK there is free designated parking in or super close to the CBD of most city’s/ places of interest. We parked up and set … Continue reading Donostia-San Sebastián
A 3.30am start from Kent for an 8am departure from Portsmouth gave us time a plenty to show Theo the ‘big boats’ before boarding our own and start pancake day in the right way- with Blueberry pancakes in the van! I’ve done this crossing several times but I seemed to have blocked the memory the sheer terror the Bay of Biscay had caused- but once … Continue reading Portsmouth to Santander 28 Hour Ferry with 2 kids!
