Our French west coast motorhome adventure takes us from rainy mornings to sunny beaches near the Spanish border. Along the way we tackle camper hiccups — from stubborn drawers to a broken hot water boiler — and enjoy the perks of coastal life.
We explore Labenne forest campsite, stroll sandy Atlantic beaches, and discover a relaxed vineyard with deck chairs, wine tastings, and brandy-soaked bread. Between pizza, ice cream, and lazy naps, we soak up the surfer-town vibe and colourful seaside streets.
It’s a mix of adventure, repairs, and pure relaxation on the road — the perfect snapshot of real van life in France.

Cheers Leigh and Nick. Just spent 12 days in the town adjacent to Labenne, called 'Ondres' . Currently in a one night stay somewhere in Brittany before the return ferry tomorrow to Plymouth en route back to Cornwall. Hope you're both good, excellent entertaining vlog as usual.

Y'all are keeping me busy between this road trip and your California adventure with the Disney Wives and Tracy/Neil/Faith. One minute y'all are on an Atlantic beach here on YouTube and the next minute there's a cat outside your room on the Pacific Coast Highway. Y'all are definitely living the good life
The wine pump, did you get that from Amazon? Can you share the link?
I went to Biarritz for work three years ago – I love that part of France – great food (Catalan) and wonderful people. Yes I work for surfer dudes LOL
