touring French campsites in France.
Tips & Ideas When On A Camping Holiday In France

The Christmas markets in France and in general,
shopping in France during the Christmas period, with all the festivities and atmosphere
can really make a family holiday in France at this time of year even more appealing.
Regulations
For Driving In France

a car and caravan or driving a motorhome through France, there are some driving
regulations and points that you must think about to make your trip go smoothly.
The French
Roads And Driving In France
Some helpful driving tips and guidelines for the French
roads in France to hopefully keep you out of trouble, when touring, and make your camping
holiday in France that more enjoyable.
French Food and
Eating Out in France
France is famous all over the world for its wine, but
also has a rich history of fine French food and wonderful cuisine with many regional
specialities, that you can enjoy when on a family camping holiday in France.
Camping
Equipment For Sleeping In Tents
Going camping in France with your own tent is a
completely different scenario to arriving at one of the many campsites in France that
already have tents including sleeping and kitchen facilities plus electric hook-ups
already set up for you.
Choosing the
right tent for a camping holiday in France
When going on a camping holiday in France, or anywhere else in Europe for that matter, if
you have never been camping before, then we would suggest that spend some time looking at
the different types of tent available.
So what style of
tent should you buy?
Now you may have been looking and realised that some tents just have one area, others have
fixed bedroom compartments, whereas others have compartments you put up individually
within the main structure, but which one?
Tent materials and how
they are made
There are three main types of material that are used in
tent manufacture..Cotton is the traditional material used and is still often found on
frame tents and this can also be known as canvas, plus cotton is utilised a lot for inner
tents
Camping
holidays, general shopping, shopping bags and rubbish!
You see, when you go shopping, one of the first things
you will probably notice is that you need a Euro in which to get a trolley (although some
places you can also use a 50 cent piece), so make sure you have at least one Euro handy
Swift
Challenger Caravan Gas Locker Lid Repair
When you purchase a second hand caravan you will
probably need to do some repair work at some time, but unfortunately many manufacturers
like Swift Caravans do not provide spares for caravans over 8 years old - So you will need
to find new ways to sort out problems!!
French Food
Delicacies and Regional Specialities of Cuisine
France is one of those countries that takes its food
very seriously and there are many different specialities of cuisine from the various
regions in France, like frog legs, snails, foie gras etc.
Cramer
Gasket for Gas Hob
We decided to clean up our caravan gas hob and realised
that the gaskets which are positioned underneath the gas rings were rather tatty and
needed replacing.
