Not sure if this is of any help but there is a small aire in Reims not sure of address it is next to the park and the river(?) where the barges park up

If you google.............Express by Holiday Inn Reims -left side of road (you can use the street walker ) have added a pic no facilities but minutes from the centre

Is that the one in the "All the Aires" book - you go in a youth centre to open the barrier ?

"All the Aires" - Pah ! A load of them are single line entries.

<table bgcolor="#ffffe6" width="100%"><tbody><tr><td align="left" valign="top" width="20%">
</td><td colspan="2">The aire is situated just outside the municipal campsite alongside the Moselle. Due to its convenient location for Metz centre its very popular, even out of season so arrive early for a chance of a space. If the aire is full you can park in the adjacent carpark. Metz is a lovely city well worth a visit.

There is free wifi available from the campsite next to the aire. The transmitter is in a small cabin next to the aire and so the signal should be very good. There are also free internet enabled Mac computers in the cabin. You will need a log-in password from the campsite office. Wifi is available free all over Metz.
The campsite does a special rate for MHs which includes electricity and, when the aire is full, is worth looking at. The aire is unshaded and can be very hot.

Can reccomend the aire at riems, stayed there two weeks ago.
No barrier to worry about unless you approach from the wrong-end.
The 'right-end' has the aire sign.

Might be worth considering Aire de Les Illettes from CC Infos. (Dept 55 aire number 10) Just north of the road from Reims to Metz. It looks very quiet and peaceful. Private aire so there is a €5 per night charge. Not been there myself and looks as if a satnav might help to find it.

>>CC Infos<<

Following an earlier reply, as well as the aire at Pont-a-Mousson (which was full when we called in Sept) there is one at Millery a bit further south and right next to the Moselle. Room for about 10 vans I would say - limited services. Coords are 48.81548N, 6.12729E

That looks like the one. Three options, we should be well covered.

Got it on Google Earth, looks excellent, certainly a good excuse for sampling some Moselle right on the banks :thumb:

Job's a good 'un, bring it on.
