Camping in France may not be what you think. The
weather is beautiful for outdoor activities, and whether you
have your own tent or choose to tour France with a motor home,
the choice of camp sites is endless.
Many first-time visitors to France make Brittany their
destination. Primarily it is for the beaches that so many
families go there, but the fact that the ferry sails directly
there from the UK helps too, because you don't need to drive too
far on unfamiliar roads. And if you're planning to camp,
Brittany has more campsite choices than any other region in
France as well as sandy beaches, hidden coves, rock
pools and a magnificent coastline.
Then there is Paris, the capital city of France, which has
everything a beautiful city can offer, and with several
campsites around Paris, the closest is just a few minutes from
the centre, you will also find others that are located near to
Versailles and Disneyland Paris, as well as others near golf
courses and fishing lakes.
Most places provide electrical hookups and rather than just
touring you can even rent the caravans, chalets or mobile homes.
Camping sites with one-star is the basic site and a two-star
site is higher rated for comfort and amenities. Three-star
and Four-star campsites are the highest standards offering top
French cuisine restaurants, pool complexes and evening
entertainment. Be sure that the area you choose for
camping is an authorized location first.
If you go camping in the slow
season (think cold), the cost is more than 50% lower and you can
still take advantage of indoor swimming.
Sedate holiday adventures include the grounds of a chateaux in
rolling countryside of the Loire valley, and for the more
adventurous, go to Dordogne and try kayaking and mountaineering
in the French Alps.
While camping, you can visit ancient ruins, quaint
villages, monuments and endless scenery typically within a few
miles drive. For more details, go to
