To be fair, once we have got the Tent and all the kit set up, that's us done, and we use the campsite as a base to explore, being wage slaves still in our mid 50's only gives us 15 nights on the campsite at most.
We have a fair bit of kit, and it takes us a good 6 hours to create our home from home, breaking camp on the last day, takes a lot less time, maybe just 3 hours, depending on the July heat.
This last couple of years we have returned to Frejus, having found a lovely no animations campsite, thanks to Stuart on here, review posted.
We do Dover-Dunkerque, which even with the trailer is a cheap crosding, around £100 These days, then 750 miles drive to the campsite with 3 overnight stops in Premiere Classe hotels along the way.
I am sure the West coast of France is just as lovely, as is Spain, but for us it has to be the Cote d Azur, or the Southern Ardeche at a push.

Firstly, in September you really won't need to worry about 'adult only' sites! You may find yourselves on a site with very few occupied pitches, and it's very unlikely that there will be any children around at all!
Secondly, in September you can take advantage of an ACSI card to use on lots of sites - at prices from just 11 euros per night for a pitch, two adults, car and tent, or caravan, or motorhome, an awning, and electricity. See www.campingcard.co.uk for details. Read the reviews for each site, then if there are sites you like the look of check out the site's own website to see how much you will save. Bear in mind that sites will look very different in low season, pools may be completely empty, and playgrounds deserted! We've had a beautiful pool to ourselves for a week and you can't get much better than that!
Thirdly all sites in France accept tents (apart from those residential parcs for mobile homes). There are none of the restrictions which there are in this country.
