If you see the prices of some municipals, particularly in the more 'flat' areas, it may not really be worthwile to avoid campsites. Especially as you seem to have a tent, not a camper. For campers there are many free or near-free facilities in France, not that much for tents/caravans.
You do need a good camping guide (e.g. Michelin for france), with indication of prices, than check on the municipals (is nearly always in the name of the site) near the place where you want to stop.
In Beaulieu Sur Loire (Camping du Canal) I paid €5,50, without electricity, for a caravan, two persons. Free showers etc, good sanitary facilities.
Most others were around €10,--, sometimes €14.--, including electricity. For a tent without electricity that would be ca. €2.-- less. Just pay the fees directly and you are free to leave early.
For that money at the end of the day or early in the morning you can all have a nice shower and be on your way totally refreshed.
Or are we interpreting the wrong way and do you mean some B&B type of stopover. Many people on overher seem to be satisfied about the Formula 1 type of budget hotels. There are a few of those hotel chains. I suppose if you google on Formula 1 hotel, you wil find a location near your preferred stopover.
