Municipal sites, who runs these, the local town ?
and can you book stays on these just like a normal private site, and anywhere-on here for a list of them, or when they are open.

Hi John

as the name implies they originally were owned by the local town. village, etc. Lots have been franchised out & are now run commerically. I've noted a few threads about guides, but can't think of any for now Rolling Eyes,

Maybe the best way of getting a booking (but most people don't) is to check out the website of the lcoal area.

Here is a .CSV file of over 2,000 French ones which you can see in Excel et al or make as PoI for a GPS.

We like them a lot. They are seldom flash but everything is likely to be clean and in good working order. Even the ones which are contracted out for management are usually on a year-by-year basis and that includes making sure everything gets repaired before the local authority does its inspection. No working = no new contract!

If you want a book:

Many of the best munis are listed in the Michelin 'Camping France' for the year.

2012 edition £7.43 from Amazon

All of them should be in "Le Guide Officiel Camping Carvanning" for the year - our 2010 edition lists over 10,000 French campsites.

2012 edition available in March from Vicarious

Generally very easy except some very popular ones from mid July to mid August.
Unless I wanted a particular site during those periods I wouldn't consider booking. It depends upon what you intend doing for your holiday.

We use them Spring & Autumn, seldom at the peak season, so for us no booking is needed. Another good thing about them is the layouts are usually roomy and more garden than carpark...

Very easy, most have a space or two if you just turn up and you can book in advance by e-mail or by phone normally. But like others have said they may get busy from the first week of July to the third week of August.

As others have said their condition is generally excellent and the costs are reasonable, but increasingly they are no longer being run by the local council itself and are contracted out.......

We prefer them to commercial ones or aires - primarily due to their facilities and location - they are often situated in ideal locations and may even be riight next door to an overcrowded or sloping aire!

We are certainly fans of them Very Happy
