CBC Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Don't know about camping-specific stores, but you can buy tents in major supermarkets/hypermarkets, the country is awash with them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suze01 Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 All the sports shops (out of town sheds) stock tents too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyh4 Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 There is a Decathlon in Bordeaux and other towns in the SW - usually a good range of tents at good prices with good quality compared with supermarkets.http://www.decathlon.fr/FR/index.htmlSupermarket tents are fine until you get a thunderstorm, then you find out why they are so cheap. It's no fun at 3 in the morning, listening to God emptying the dustbins in a very wet (and getting wetter) sleeping bag. Last time I was camping the family opposite ended up sleeping in the car in their by then wet sleeping bags. By comparison the Decathlon was totally dry.
