    Hi all,

    My boyfriend and I are heading on our first camping holiday this June to France for 3 weeks and we would be grateful for any advice offered here!

    1. Is it tue that many campsites are not open / fully functional in France until late in June?

    2. Is it worth having a Camping Key Europe which acts as a form of identification and offers discounts at campsites? It costs €16.

    3. Do campsites need to be booked far in advance? We would prefer to book as we go along rather than being stuck to a strict itinerary.

    4. We are a very active couple and we would like to do hiking, walking and cycling (we will have our own road bikes with us). Any recommendations on good area to go for these?

    Thats all for now! New to camping holidays so a lot to learn!

    Thanks 😊

    In June they are all open. Think about what business runs two months a year.

    They won't be busy though as the little darlings are still at school.

    Just go. Don't worry about it.
