For one, two, three nights or even a week, one thing's for sure: camping promises great memories. So if you're looking for a vacation in the great outdoors, sleeping in a tent, caravan or camper van (your own or rented), there are a number of sites that will take you off the beaten track and away from the usual campsites (or not) in favor of a more natural type of camping, with local people, on land where you can pitch your tent (even in the forest), on a parking lot...
If you're looking for the perfect spot to park your motorhome, van or camper van, the Park4Night platform may be just what you're looking for. The concept? Numerous road trip and touring enthusiasts and converted vehicles share their favorite places to spend the night: the suggestions include campsites , parking lots, homestays... The addresses also work if you're on foot, by bike or with your tent on your back.
Homecamper, on the other hand, offers you the chance to camp in a park, a garden or a private plot in a private home, with last-minute booking possible: if you're planning to leave on Friday evening for Saturday morning, this platform is perfect for you! The great advantage of this type of camping is that you get to meet the locals and enjoy the facilities they offer: bike shelter, garden table, barbecue, clothesline, refrigerator... A must, especially if you're on a long-distance hiking or cycling trip lasting several days, especially as the average cost of a night's accommodation is around €5 to €20.
Finally, for aficionados of road trips, trips in vans and other motorized vehicles where you can spend the nights of your lives, Caramaps is the application (also available on the website) you need to know: it lists campsites where you can spend the night or the whole of your stay, spots where parking is free, parking lots where you can camp, service areas, private areas... To help you find the perfect place to camp during your vacation, Caramaps provides all the information you need: services (entertainment, showers, toilets, waste disposal, laundry), nearby places (supermarkets, leisure activities...).
Now you've got the essentials for planning your next getaway in the region, whether it's for a weekend, a vacation or a bank holiday: it's up to you now!
