France in a motorhome. Île de ré. Saint Clements de Baleine.

#france #motorhome #iledere
The Slaws are on their early summer holiday to France. They are staying in the Île de Ré, a stunning little island just off the coast of La Rochelle, in Flower Campings Les Ilates at Loix in Helga their Hobby motorhome ‪@FlowercampingsFrance‬ ‪@HobbyCaravan‬
In this episode they make a 20 mile round trip to visit Le Phare (the lighthouse) at Saint Clement des Baleines. They pass sauniers working on the salt flats and there's plenty of doggy cam of Billy and Jessie in the dog trailer!
A long lazy lunch, followed by fun on the beach and a stop off on the way back to site at Ars en Ré.

You must visit Île de Ré! It’s stunning ❤️

[@PostcardAndAPint]

We go on holiday for 1 week and we’re loads of videos behind on the Slaws!! Loved this guys. You aren’t half healthy with all your cycling!! What a lovely place. The food looked amazing - sardine - good call! Loved the beach as did the doggos - nice droning. Is ‘do you want an icecream’ even a question - it’s not in our life! They looked great though. Poor Mrs S - hope you got better quickly. Cheers 🍻

[@TheSlawsAdventures]

Thank you! It is a stunning island to visit 🤩 That cold was a bugger to shift though and fair spoilt my holiday 😢

Haha that wave nearly caught Jessie having a lie down in the sea🤣....hope her eye is OK now. And thankyou for asking...I'll have a mango and raspberry sorbet too🍦 love listening to Mrs Slaw talking French...and Slaw is definitely coming on in leaps and bounds😂 he's definitely a babe magnet...nothing to do with Jessie and Billy whatsoever😉 hope you're feeling better now Mrs Slaw. It was so kind of Angela to share her cold with you...that's what true friends do, they share❤ looking forward to the next video already. Take care

[@angelachilds1439]

Exactly, sharing is good manners and I always share with Mrs Slaw (especially Prosecco 🥂). Besides, I think the husky voice suits her 😅😂

Oh dear! Please don’t encourage Slaw 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣

[@ANDREWSMITH-hq5ny]

How lovely is Ile de Re, we are fortunate to live about 2 hours away and visited just before the bank holiday, staying at the Flower campsite in La Flotte. We also had one of the luxury pitches and loved the extra facilities. I laughed at how very similar your Super U shop was, to most of ours. All the important things in life; wine and beer

[@TheSlawsAdventures]

Thanks Andrew! How lovely that you live so close 🥰 It is a stunning island and we really loved our pitch. Yes, we think we have our priorities in the supermarket right 😝

[@alisonsamet2570]

Bike porn 😂😂😂. We were there last year and climbed to the top of the lighthouse. We stayed in Les Portes en Ré. Absolutely loved the island - great for cycling

[@TheSlawsAdventures]

Thanks Alison!

[@richardumney5783]
