Cherbourg campsite (1 Viewer)

[Scrumpy]

Does anyone know of a campsite with a late arrival policy?
Due to Brittany Ferries changing the time of our crossing will not be arriving in port until 7.15pm.
The campsites I have looked at reception closed at 7pm.
Many thanks

What about any of these?

Thanks guys, I think the Aire will be full by the time we get off.
Will try campercontact as one site wanted 37 euros for 1 night including a booking fee of 9 euros

I would think that if you pick one of the Aires a few miles in Cherbourg you will find space. Also don't forget that in France it IS legal to sleep in your van when parked up unless a sign says otherwise. So you could always wing it and if all else fails just find a nice place to pull over for the night........ it is only one night

If I were you, I'd speak to Brittany Ferries and see what they suggest.

In the past, we've had a free first night's camping as part of the BF ticket we bought. Admittedly, a few years ago, and to Roscoff, rather than Cherbourg. But that was a very late arrival - dark when we arrived with our caravan a few minutes from the port.

I'd hope they can help, especially as they changed your schedule.

I spotted a number of places along the main road D901 heading east from cherbourg that I might use for a stopover. Should still be light when you arrive so might be worth having a look see.

Well that’s given me some food for thought.
I have now got a few options lined up with aires etc so shouldn’t be too much of a problem.
Thanks all for the input.
