I'm new to this site - and have just gone through the list of sites. I already knew a few of them; Agua Amarga, S of Mojacar, in SE Spain, is a favourite. It would be nice to have them listed by country, in order to make a search easier. Would it be possible to divide it into sections? And I think you should positively encourage contributors to give more information about where the sites are, ie nearby towns or districts of the country. France is a big place, and a village name is not a lot of help unless you know where it is! from jrjazz

..and could I mention that there's now a campsite/wildspot proforma in the 'dowloads' section, if you take a few with you on your hols or keep a few in the glovebox and fill them out as you go, it will make entering all your information easier when you get back.

What a good idea...just wish I had spotted this before I went on holiday, now I can't remember where I've been. DOH!

Hi there Pete,
Many thanks for the quick response. I tried typing out the address but it kept coming up, "module inactive".

I agree, along the same lines I often tried using the site search but to be honest I found it too complicated ( okay could be just me) I tended to use one that shows area’s then a list of sites and their facilities, far easier just clicking on a map and selecting which county/country.

I have intended adding my sites and will do so, but every time I think about it I’m put off by the thought that if the “adding sites” part is as complicated as the looking for sites part, I’ll have to wait until have more time.

Not a criticism as such just trying to be helpful, I think a lot may benefit from a more simple site search, but I’m not sure how much is involved.

Rob I agree, Mandy and I were looking in the databases earlier today for an aire or municipal to stop off at en route to our holiday destination, the first thing we do is get the France map book out to visualize the route, then look for suitable places to stop during the journey, but there is no facility within the database input fields to define exactly where the site/aire is!

For instance,(scenario) If I left Calais port heading south looking for an overnight stop, the choices would be St. Omer/Arques area or even Bethune depending on times of travel etc. however there is no link to ant Towns within the database?
