Don't know how we found this one a couple of years ago, just followed some hand painted signs on buildings. Didn't hold much hope but when we got there it was almost brand new , all services including ehu for free, at the back of a monestery or something with a park. All hard standings and very...

TThis aire is about 20 miles due west of Caen, close to the edge of a village. There are no facilities; it is very quiet. The two interesting things are the Abbaye, which may...
A Carcasonne alternative, far more pleasant town in our view than the big C and significantly less selfie taking tourists, it a lovely little town full of character and the aire was adjacent to the main road but we heard little to no traffic overnight on the hardstanding pitches and free water...

A field opposite the Ostrich farm which could take 20 vans and is part of the France Passion scheme but no request was made to see our membership, we shared the field with another van and were separated from the donkey by a bit of wire. If the wind was going in the wrong direction i reckon you...
We liked this place and considering I was in my "Im not going to spend a penny phase" that says something for this aire on hard standing next to the beach for 8 euros with free water and space to sit out. RIght next to the beach that went for a bit with people throwing themselves off cliffs with...
Now heres an anomaly. We went through this town on the way down and popped in for a coffee stop and ablutions. We parked alongside the quay and the weather was pretty bad and we thought the whole place was not very enticing. Anyway, we came back that way and the weather was nice, came in from a...

This is an experiment in posting on here but if it works it's a good one worth knowing about. Up until the 1 sept this is a carpark with height barriers but from this date they are open and it is free to anything, right on the beach and about 100 yds to centre of town. Can't remember which day...
Aire is under the viaduct at Dinan a wonderful medieval walled town not far from St Malo.The walk into the main town up a steep cobblestone hill is a “shlepp” for some but worth it. The walk around the “ramparts” has great views. Spend a day there and stay overnight. A few euros well spent. Phil

Part of a campsite and they come round early evening or you can attend the hut to pay your 8 euros including water, its on sandy grassy and although flat reversing up to the edges may require blocks, walk through the tree line and youre on the beach, which wasnt enticing but it was blowing a...
An enclosed pay as you enter via barrier system, so make sure there is a space before entering and it is pretty tight. Probably used to be part of the municipal campsite and you get water and dump at the campsite next door which i made note was free. Hard grassy surface and a sort of park where...
This is a bit of a corker if you can get in. First up the beach that it is adjacent to is a naturist beach, and it is a proper naturist beach, so if you were to put a costume on you would look extremely out of place, there are other beaches available. Extremely well used beach and oversubscribed...
We didnt go much on this aire, it was 4 euros in a machine to get a ticket and then packed in like sardines, little chance of opening door, never mind stepping out or putting a chair out but there was some lawn to the rear, fair way to the beach but nice port and sea type things to look at

A slightly sloping aire on hard surface within a car park but designated motorhome parking and we stayed the night. Dont remember any water and it is a flat walk to the top of the cliffs past some really quite nice houses then down a wooden pathway to the beach. Free of charge and well used area
Large hardstanding free of charge aire with paying facilities by jeton available in the really quite nice boulangerie. Not a lot in the village but there were signs for another aire, but dont bother as this one is by far superior to a little car park. possible to walk to the beach and very Q...

Free aire, Flot Bleu services, EHU - pay in advance Community run fuel station opposite, village a few minutes walk away Short drive to Beau Village Conques
Interesting aire which is free and has water which i remember to be free, its a tad slopey and remember it as being hard sandy. Its part of one way system so careful which way you exit. If you take a look at the map you can see it is very close to a beach and if you look further you can see the...

If youre passing this way, worth a stop to look at the serpent in the sea which looks different dependant upon the tide. Possible to park nearby for period to take photos.
A designated parking area with free water and gated entrance which is a flat walk to the beach in the town. The town itself is very much Bognoresque in that it is full of shops selling inflatable dinghies but a couple of classy looking restaurants there as well. There is a zoo and the best...
