Le Croix de Vieux Pont near Berny Riviere (near to Soissons on a map) is open all year - and a very nice place to stay overnight or for a few days. 

This is a good website to look for opening dates - gives all sites within 15 kilometres of the main routes through France - and their opening dates and other site details.  Best to check directly with the sites, though, just in case. http://users.pandora.be/leo.huybrechts/00frame.htm  Sites are listed in a North/South direction (or East/West) so very useful in planning your routes and overnight stops.   Hope this helps.

I think the one you've mentioned is probably Les Portes de Lyon, at Dardilly.

Thank you very much for that website with the camping sites near to the main routes through France. It has a few of the ones we have used last year but there are loads of others I didn't know existed. This will help a lot with planning. I just wish the French were a bit more organised when it comes to taking advance bookings by email and do not shut everything till March!
