Heading on our first trip to France in the mh this weekend!

Excited much!

We arrive in Cherbourg around 15.30 so looking for a recommendation of a nice wild camping spot or nearby aire

We have the book but nice to get recommended from those who've been

Turn left out of the docks, and head down the North and then East coast. You won't have to travel far to find what you're looking for. Head for Saint Vaaste-la-Hougue.

I should mention we are heading along to the west coast planning to follow the coast all the way from Cherbourg to border.

You do realise that it is Bastille day on Monday, reportedly the busiest weekend of the year in France, kids all off and all Paris heading off for their hols, if you find a site on Saturday I'd stick to it till Tuesday :wink:
