Journey Through South-West France: A Perfect 10-Day RV Itinerary

Embark on a 10-day RV adventure through south-west France. Enjoy picturesque villages, delicious cuisine, and scenic drives.


Tips, highlights, and must-stops for your south-west France RV trip

A 12-week campervan journey through Europe in 1997 ignited a fire for European motorhome travel. France became a favourite destination. 

France earns high praise for being ‘RV-friendly’ – making travelling in your home within a home simple, the perfect partnership for our preferred style of slow travel. Renowned for its world landmarks, France’s natural beauty is found in the smaller regions … where ancient villages and jaw-dropping landscapes abound. And, of course, there’s the exceptional cuisine and wine.  

This is our journey through part of France’s south-west, which can be done on its own or with a larger trip. In France, anything is possible. We chose Anywhere Campers for our motorhome hire because they allow for easy pick-up and drop-off in separate locations.
