  • Join us in Part 4 of our 2024 European Road Trip, in this episode we explore the REAL side of France, staying with some wonderful France Passion hosts in our trusty camper van. From Vineyards in Cognac and Bordeaux, to goat farms in Limoges, goose farms in Perigord to oyster farms in Brittany, we show you some of the amazing places that are listed in this brilliant France Passion book that covers the whole country with over 2000 hosts waiting to welcome you.
    All of the places we visit are FREE to camp, the majority of places you cannot book, you simply turn up. They are hosted on private land and there is absolutely no obligation to purchase anything, (although as we are British.....we always did :-)
    One question we are asked often is how do we empty the loo and fill with fresh water using these kind of sites. Well some of the France passion sites actually have chemical waste disposal and water. More often than not they don't of course and in these situations we stop at a village or town en-route to use the facilities at a village aire, there are thousands of these aires in France (and they are usually free) we find these aires using the park4night app.
    We thoroughly recommend France Passion to everyone, it's brilliant.
    Books can be purchased online here
    www.france-pas...
    and delivered to your home, there's also a very useful app (and no, we are not sponsored by them in any way).
    We hope you find this guide useful and enjoy your own trip around this wonderful country.

    Lovely! We are huge fans of France! (We are Swedish). Spent 10 years of vacations in France, every summer, now. (Motorhome, caravan and car/hotel). This year we went to Italy - it was also very nice but next year we will go back to France again. Probably Normandie and Bretagne. We have no motorhome, at the moment, but we plan to buy something like yours in close future. (Big vans are not suitable for exploring the countryside in France). Thank you for your movie and the inspiration we got from it! France Passion seems to be something for us!!! Br, Johnny & Ewa

    Cracking idea, similar to the US where they have RV camping but charge.
    Perhaps our farmers, smallholders in UK could do this.

      Totally agree Ianrea 👍there’s Brit stops but nowhere near as good as France Passion. We love France, 🇫🇷 so motorhome friendly. Thank you for watching and enjoy your travels. Sue and Steve 🙂

    Brilliant vid, thanks for posting. How did you manage your waste and your refill if you don't mind me asking? Thanks

      Great question. We used village aires en route to refill with fresh water and empty the loo, you're never too far away from a village or town that has these facilities in France. The Park4night app is great in this regard. Thank you for watching our videos and your great comment. Sue and Steve

    Enjoyed watching your journey. I'm currently planning a motorhome trip around France, just ordered my France passion book. Is it a requirement to reserve a spot with the hosts ahead of time, or just show up the day you want to stay?

    • @wadskistravelchannel

      Hi 👋, you’ll absolutely love it 😊 When the book arrives you’ll see that 99% of the hosts do not require you to call ahead, you simply turn up. They often have time restrictions (such as please arrive before 7pm for example) of those we visited none asked us to call beforehand and we had no problem getting in. There’s a symbol next to each host stating how many vans they can accommodate and we always chose hosts with 2 or more spaces. There’s so many to choose from and they are reasonably close to each other so I I don’t think you’ll have any problems. Enjoy your trip and if you’re there end of September/October we may even see you there as well be heading that way ourselves too. Thank you for watching our videos. Sue and Steve 😎👋
