This is all very well but I doubt if the aire de services came into being overnight. To get things like that accepted takes time.


Also you have to consider the weather. Not many campervans are on the road through the winter months. Perhaps someone who belongs to one of the clubs could tell us how many (roughly) of the members are out all year round.
And speaking of clubs, have they tried to persuade any councils to build one? I would think they have the numbers to carry some weight.


Please don't get me wrong, I would certainly welcome them through the summer (LOL) months but how many councils will build one just to have it very lightly used for so many months of the year.

Does anyone know how successful the aires in the North are?
