Hello, we are looking for a site near to the port which we can use at the end of our 3 week holiday.  Does anyone know if one night stops are possible at many French sites in August?  We are first timers in France with  our

own equipment.

We stayed at Camping Domaine Catiniere last year which is about 30mins from Le Harve, its in both club brochures this year and has reviews on this site. The site has a small pool, bar which does food and the faclities are kept clean, it is only a short drive to Honfluer.

There's a nice little municipal in Etretat http://www.les-campings-de-france.net/Seine-Maritime-76/Etretat-76790/camping-municipal-5192.asp , which is 17m N of Le Havre. It's a small site 1m out of town, and very busy, so needs a booking. A very nice way to end your holiday though, Etretat is quaint with great cliff walks and good restaurants.

It's also a good side to enter Le Havre from, avoids the main roads. There's a large car park with fairground rides and chippy / kebab vans on the sea front as you enter the suburbs to the East of Le Havre, which is a good place to stop for a couple of hours before the ferry.

We also stayed at Camping Domaine Catiniere for one night last August on our way back from Royan.  It was an ideal site for a stopover, clean showers etc and a small shop.  There were quite a lot of statics on the site, but it still seemed quiet. We booked it thrugh Select Sites.

Would go along with Camping Domaine Catiniere. It's just 2 miles from the Pont du Normandie and 17 miles from the docks.
