ChezShells Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Im a big motorhome fan so I'd go for one of them and France is so geared up for them, hook up in most villages and many are free.Oh and I'm selling one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nimportequoi Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 As a gite owner I'm biased, but some French friends of ours borrowed a camper van and went down south and said that the number of towns and cities now making it impossible for camper vans to park (low barriers) is increasing. It is the same in St Malo here. Our friend said it is because people who holiday in camper vans contribute littleg to the local community by way of paying for accommodation etc., so they are not encouraged. That said, there are still plenty of places to put vans (our little local town has just created a space), but it is difficult to park in the more popular tourist places.

Jc Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Most seafront car-parks have a two- metre barrier but most communes create a space further back from the front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
