Just returned from an 18 day trip through France calling at among other places Avignon, Lake Garda, Nice, Venice and the French Alps.
Had a great time but want to give a word of caution. Many camping sites even those advertised in key camping guides are giving inacurate information regarding the number of pitches available. There are in too many instances far fewer pitches than advertised because of the introduction of static units which on some camp sites are now taking up as much as 50% of the available space. This provided a problem for us in May it will provide a greater problem for those visiting at peak periods.
Is this a trend that others have noticed? What are the implications for those of us who travel by motorhome or caravan? Is it a development that is likely to continue? Your observations would be appreciated
