buy the book - all the aires - from vicarious books, then plan your holiday around the free aires - so long as youre in a nice area for activities and attractions etc, then you can save a bob or two on site fees and actually see more of france. you could always stop at a couple of sites to break the holiday and travelling up! you can virtually stop anywhere - so long as there no signs saying no motorhomes etc
you can often find emptying points etc that are free though you will probably need to pay a couple of euros for topping the water up etc. most 'europeans' with motorhomes use the aires as opposed to stopping on sites

Hi Gareth, please bear in mind if you use the motorhome aires that you cannot put the following out, table & chairs, awning, steps,washing or anything that will make it look as if you are camping,

Check out the camping abroad forum. There are hundreds of regular visitors to France with a wealth of info and experience. There's no better advice anywhere on the web.
France is made for camping, certainly more so than the UK.. You will love it and so will your kids.
