You've probably thought of them already but insect repellent & waterproofs would be high on my list. Oh, and T bags (you can buy them here but they are not as strong as in the UK so your cuppa really won't be as good!)

Also, adapter plugs, deflectors for your car headlights.

More importantly, have a great time. Welcome to the world of French camping!
