Hi 👋🏻 It’s been so lovely over here, really wish we could have a lot longer to explore 😞 We are making our way back up through France now and the weather is not so good ☔️ Thank you so much for watching - Mark & Amanda x

Hi, thank you so much, thats a lovely thing to say 😊 We watch most of our KZfaq videos on the tele too so know its a bit more difficult to leave comments - thank you for taking the time to do that 😊 Thank you for watching - Amanda & Mark 😍

Hi guys, thank you so much 😊 We’ve been having such a fab time - we’ve done so much in two and half weeks - now heading into France and making our way home 😞 Thanks for watching - Mark & Amanda x

Thank you 😊 It was a fab site - shame we don’t have sites like that in Cornwall!! Puerto de Mazarron was very lovely and somewhere we will have to head back to and explore more especially on our bikes 🚴🏻‍♂️🚴🏼‍♀️ Thanks for watching - Mark & Amanda x

Hi guys, it was a nice little bimble, nothing to hard (those are yet to come 😂) and a joy to ride in the sunshine ☀️ Don’t worry we’ve had 24 hrs so far of heavy rain and think it’s like it for the next couple of days as we make our way up to Roscoff ⛴️ How’s it going with full time vanlife?

Hi Michelle, thank you so much for watching and commenting, we really appreciate that - our visit to the Alhambra in Granada is out tonight at 5 pm 😍Amanda & Mark x

Thanks Paul, really glad you enjoyed it and it really was a very straightforward drive - we literally put Mazarron in the sat nav - non-tolls road and we didn't have any issues at all. We don't think there were a lot of toll roads anyway but if you not worried about the cost you might get there even quicker that we did but as you saw we were at the campsite before reception closed for the night and in time for dinner and a sunset 😊 How lovely that you have a place there - we enjoyed our stay and the Port area is beautiful. Thank you for watching - Amanda & Mark 😍

Hi Julie, awhh thanks, thats very kind of you to say so 😊 How very exciting that you’re going that way - how long will you be away for? Three weeks for us was not enough time although we did fit quite a bit in 😂 Thank you so much for watching - Amanda & Mark 😍

Thank you, de nada 😊 When do you think you will be heading off into Europe? Will Spain be your main destination?

@AdventureswithIndie we are planning for April or May time next year. Yes but Steve's wanting to go North to Norway I want sunshine he wants Snow ha ha. We are going to France in June only fir a week but excited x

@@gatersontour Oh definitely sunshine for us although we do get excited when we see just a little bit of snow 😂 Will you have gone full time by then? Whereabouts in France are you going? We just had 4 over nighters in France and stayed in Vannes which was really nice 😍

@AdventureswithIndie we are hoping to be full time by April next year. Then After August shipping to Canada and USA cannot wait! We are meeting our daughter just outside Calais then heading to Normandy then after that we don't know ha ha love unplanned journeys ❤️

@@gatersontour Wow that sounds amazing! How long will you get to spend exploring over there? We have yet to do an unplanned journey 😂 Always trying to fit too much into the little time we have 😍

Hi Kevin, thank you so much 😍 It was a lovely little cycle along the beach front and it would have been great to have explored further along that off road coastal route. Have you cycled in Spain before? Thank you for watching and comment, we really appreciate it - Amanda & Mark 😊

@@AdventureswithAmandaandMark No we haven’t yet but hope to in the future.

Well it's a great place - we do long road bike cycles usually wherever we go. We especially love it in Girona and loved our trip to the Pyrenees last year when we got to cycle up famous Tour de France climbs like the Col du Tourmalet 😊

@@AdventureswithAmandaandMark awesome, I would love to get back to that level of fitness again. We’ve not been able to get out on our bikes for a few years but now have the freedom to get back out there.

Well my fitness is terrible at the moment so we bought an Orbea Gain electric bike last year so I could keep up with Mark - it's been pretty good but I tend to go months and months with not cycling so really need to keep on top of it but its hard sometimes! There are some lovely places to cycle in Europe so hopefully you'll be fitter soon and heading off to explore 😊

😍😍 The weather was glorious ☀️ Debs is right 😂 You definitely need to go to Spain, wait til you see Granada 😜 Thanks for watching both, if there’s anything you think we should add/include let us know! Mark & Amanda x

Hi, we drove from Santander to Mazarron using the non-toll route. We'd have liked to have put in a Google route or something but we thought these were copyrighted. We can let you know which route we did take if you like - it was about 560 miles, very easy route to follow and like we said it took around 11 hours 😊 Thank you for watching - Amanda & Mark 😍

@@AdventureswithAmandaandMark no problems, though I'd see more of the journey , that's all. Good look in your travels, were flying to Spain for a wedding later this year 😀

@@frankmaxwell5193 Have a fabulous time 😍

Hi guys, nice to hear from you 😍 We definitely think its a quieter area, we will find out from our friends after they spend their first summer there this year. Oh thats such a shame that you didn’t get to visit - we had a good wander around Granada after (a few times practically in circles) and our feet were aching so much 😂 Hope you enjoy the video - it’ll make you want to go back! How long have you got left away?

Mazarron is a Spanish resort. We are lucky enough to have a son that brought an a apartment, and we go for 85 days at a time. It will be our tenth trip this year .Roll on August.

@@AdventureswithAmandaandMark looking forward to that video! Granada is huge isn't it, we had aching feet too. One day I walked up to the abbey near the cave houses on the hill, that was a good hour one way! Got the bus back though 😆 Sadly only a few days left...we're travelling up through France now, stopping to see family before the ferry on Wednesday. Sad to leave but its been a blast...enjoy your time left too!

@@comealongdear You definitely got to see more than what we did as the Alhambra was our main attraction for our one trip into the city. We have been home a week now, back at work and constantly day-dreaming of being away again - 3 weeks just isn’t enough 😂 Have a safe journey home - Amanda & Mark x

@@user-cq1yo6it3q wow 85 days! That’s a lot of time for relaxing and enjoying that lovely port area - enjoy yourselves 😍

Hi, it wouldn't be much different from doing it in a Motorhome although we chose to avoid the toll roads as they are more expensive for us - we just put the campsite in the SatNav and headed south, really good roads and all free which is how we we're able to do it in a day 😊 If there's anything specific you'd like to know, we can try and help. Thanks for watching - Amanda & Mark 😍

Wasn't it great 😊 We definitely wanted to keep cycling further along but ran out of time! Also you can't beat cycling and walking along the coast in weather like that - You should go!! Thanks for watching - Amanda & Mark 😍

Awhh thanks guys 😊 Just started working on that one 😜 What have you been up to since you got back from your little trip? We’re sad that this one is nearly over, need a lot more time to explore those Picos mountains 🏔️

@@AdventureswithAmandaandMark That’s the problem with trips away, they always come to an end. 😄. Since we got back it’s back to work and planning future trips. We are looking at Germany/Austria for June. We have booked the tunnel and that’s all, so we could take any direction once in Calais 😄. A couple of weekend trips between now and then would be nice too.

Wasn’t it great 👍🏻 We said it’s definitely one to come back to as the price was just so good for what you get! It was a lovely cycle and if we had more time it would have been great to have carried on further along the off road part and see where it led. We had 2 1/2 weeks of beautiful sunshine but it’s now pretty rubbish but we’re making our way back up through France now ready to catch the ferry home 😞 How are your travel plans coming along?

@@AdventureswithAmandaandMark Ah it’s a shame when you have to go home. We’re finally on the last hurdle of getting the house ready to sell, having it valued next week and plan to have it on the market the week after. We’re going to the Campervan Campout the week after so will be celebrating finishing the work on the house finally! 😁 thank you for asking! Do you have your next trip in the pipeline? x

@@wheelersinthewild That all sounds very exciting 😆 We had our house valued last year to give us an idea of what we can get if we decide we are going to sell up and move abroad or go full time in our van. Ideas are continuously going around in our heads - they hurt 😂 We would have liked to go to Campervan Campout but Mark wants to watch the coronation and its quite a trip for us in one weekend - hope you have an amazing time there, will look out for your posts on Instagram 😍 We’ll be keeping it local for a few weeks and then had planned to go to London for my birthday in June and also we’re off to VanLove Fest in Yorkshire (had to book a day off work for that one!). No plans for Europe again this year except on a cruise 🚢 Speak soon - Amanda & Mark x

@@AdventureswithAmandaandMark Oh wow didn’t know you were planning either living abroad or going full-time, where abroad takes your fancy? I can imagine your heads do hurt with both those ideas floating around! 😁 Have a great birthday in London, there are a lot of van festivals now aren’t there, we wanted to go to a couple more but with putting the house on the market next week, going to Campout and going to the Motorhome show in the middle of May we knew we’d have to spend most of the rest of the weekends between now and the end of June at home sorting and selling all our stuff, as our season pitch in the New Forest starts then, plus we have the holiday in Crantock in August. It’s going to be a very busy summer! A cruise will be lovely, we did a Med cruise in 2019 with all the family, didn’t think we were cruise people but we had a great time, I’ve love to do a Scandinavian Cruise. x

@@wheelersinthewild We’ve said we would like to move to Spain, one of the reasons we visited our friends in Mazarron was to have a look at the area. Everywhere we go we think ooh this is nice 😂 We spent a lot of time in Girona in Spain so not sure if we will end up there! We are probably going to go to the Motorhome Show in September in Bath as really enjoyed it last year and then the NEC one in October. We love cruising but that may have to stop if we go full-time and have to watch our pennies so we have a few booked, the last one for my big birthday next June which actually is to Scandinavia so all the usual places, this November we’re off to Bruges, Rotterdam, Hamburg and Le Havre - can’t wait for Bruges, been wanting to go there for years!!

Hi Geraldine, thank you and thanks for watching 😊 The site was called Area Camper Mazarron - there is a link to there website in the video description 😊 Mark & Amanda x

Hi Vernon. We decided to avoid tolls to save some pennies but actually the route we took straight down to Mazarron was a pretty good road with no tolls anyway. How much does it usually cost you in tolls for one trip? And wow your RV sounds huge!!! We have just got a new Burstner Motorhome which is obviously German too and although only 7 metres seems to much bigger than Indie who was 6 metres. Do you get to spend a lot of time in yours? Thanks for watching - Amanda & Mark 😍

Hi Richard. Mazarron is about a mile and a half away and Puerto de Mazarron is about three miles. We had our bikes so cycled to the Port but mostly we were driven around by our friends. We didn't see any bus stops and I have checked on Google maps and can't see any available 🗺️ Were you thinking of staying? They're really good at replying to emails so maybe able to help with further info if you contact them. Thank you for watching - Amanda & Mark 😍

@@AdventureswithAmandaandMark Thank you going in September.

Hi Alan. It is called Area Camper Mazarron and there is a link to the website in the video description which may be of some use to you but you can also find it on Search for Sites and probably Park 4 Night. We pre-booked as we knew we would be arriving late and I wanted us to have a few nights there but yes I think you probably can just walk in. They are very good at communicating via email and over the phone actually so you could always contact them for clarification 😊 Are you heading down that way yourself? Thank you very much for watching - Amanda & Mark 😍

Hi Gareth, are you travelling down in a Motorhome? If so then I shouldn't see why not 😊 If not, Madrid is about half way and if we'd have had enough time we'd have happily stopped there overnight for a wander around and it's in our list for a future trip 🚐 You could always stop there anyway, even in a Motorhome to break up the journey 😊 Thank you for watching - Amanda & Mark 😍

Morning, yes we are about to hire onefor the summer and spend a month travelling with the children to experience some things (they are growing up too fast for work to consume all our QT). then if it goes well ill buy onenext year. a 5birth motorhome with AC is what im looking at with the bike racks and all.@@AdventureswithAmandaandMark

it looks like there may be plenty of stops on the way down with caravan parks with playparks etc.@@AdventureswithAmandaandMark

@@Gareth_NocturnalGarage Fabulous! Sounds like you’re all sorted for an amazing adventure and I expect you will fall in love with this way of travelling and rushing to the nearest dealership which you get back!! Enjoy your travels 😍
