How to successfully fly your bike to France
Flying in for your French motorhome trip and want to bring your bike?

Fantastic end-of-year events in France and motorhome availability update
Here’s our latest motorhome and campervan availability update together with my pick of the best events in France from now until the end of the year.

Can we bring our pets with us on a campervan trip?
The question of whether clients can bring their pets with them on their RV/campervan trip comes up regularly. Sadly we have to decline. Here’s why… Everyone on Team FMH is an animal lover, so it pains us to say “No” to clients when they ask to bring a pet. But with so many people allergic […]
