2014 Tour of Spain and France

2014 Tour of Spain and France.

Monday 14^th April 2014

We left home at around 2pm and made an overnight stop at the Fromebridge Mill Pub just north of Bristol. A lot of English motorhomers seem to be asking for an Aires system similar to the French where motorhomers can park up in designated areas in villages for free. They probably haven’t explored the numerous pubs throughout Britain where landlords allow you to park for free in pub car parks. The Fromebridge Mill is an excellent example of this, there was no pressure to go into the pub and spend money although there is an unwritten expectancy for motorhomers to buy a meal or at least a few pints in return for free overnight parking. The car park was massive and well lit, there were grassed sections with park benches and a good menu. We treated ourselves to the two meals for a tenner and although these weren’t exactly a la carte they were excellent value. Definitely a place to return to.
