Me and a few friends are planning on hiring a motor home and travelling from England through France to Spain and back. We have decided to stop of in some popular towns and cities but are worried that we will struggle to find places to park the motor home while we sleep. Any help on where to find this information would be greatly appreciated.


Answer
Go to hostelworld.com, or another hostel website like this... I used these a few months ago, in both france and Spain. You will have no trouble finding multiple sites in every major city you go to and even smaller ones. we personally stayed in campgrounds in madrid, valencia, Biot, and in italy as well (cinque terre and rome), all found on hostelworld.com.

Often you can book early/book for more days to get cheaper rates.

Good luck and have fun!

In France and Spain is it illegal to park is a standard car park with a motor home and sleep there.?

Me and a few friends are touring France and Spain, stopping off at Calais, Paris, Bordeaux, Bilbao, Zaragoza, Barcelona, Montpelier and Lyon in a motor home. we are struggling to find accessible camp-sites so are wondering if it is legal to just park up in a field somewhere or a car park and spend the night there. Any help with this dilemma would be appreciated.


Answer
You and a "few" friends. The law is flexible - but look at it from a Gendarmes point of view.
I lay up in car parks near Calais/Dunkerque the night before my ferry - no hassle. But you MUST be non messy, quiet at night, no fooling around.
Away from the coast there are plenty of municipal campsites. I have used motorway car parks - go away from the shop, be polite - no problem. Remember motorway service stations have good showers as well.
