Camping in France

I have experienced a few holidays in France and I have stayed in quite a few different types of accommodation on the various trips that I have taken. I have 'enjoyed' some low budget hotels, some higher-end hotels, some delightful and extraordinary Bed and Breakfast places and have enjoyed Camping france holidays too.
I have been a fan of camping since childhood and it still offers a freedom not afforded by more formal accommodation. There are few restrictions on your coming and going, you can dress exactly as you want and the whole atmosphere offers more a more relaxing experience in my opinion.
Camping in France is very well organised and is well-established, there are places where you can take your own tent, caravan or motor-home as well as those places that offer ready-pitched tents for hire or mobile homes which offer facilities to rival a small hotel (often offering two bathrooms in the bigger units!).
Without exception, holidays in the great outdoors offer more relaxation and are particularly ideal for those who want to go home with some great photography of the flora and fauna of France. French camping venues are naturally in quiet rural spots which will also have some fantastic places to eat and drink at a fraction of the prices you would pay in a hotel or in a busy resort. There is no doubt that the French really know a thing or two about how to have a good evening out with good food and wine. A rural setting will give you great value for money when it comes to eating out, and if you want to cook for yourself (another advantage offered by a camping holiday), the local supermarche will be able to provide you with great food and an abundance of wine at reasonable prices. You can even seek yourself out a local 'cave' to experience local wine actually purchased from the vineyard.
Worth noting that often this local wine does not travel well, so unfortunately you will be better off drinking it all while you are still enjoying your holiday to avoid disappointment!!
