Having decided to splash out nearly twelve quid on the latest Michelin France map I went along to the local bookshop, brought it home to discover what new roads are now on that wernt yesterday, so to speak, only to discover that they have now omitted putting the little triangle symbol which indicates if a town / village has a campsite. This I find extreemly usefull when touring, as I am sure do others.Wanting my pound of flesh I returned to the store left it with them they said they would get in touch with the suppliers / Today I recieved a call from the shop telling me that no one is producing a map of France with symbols on indicating that a site is present.

Does anyone know of a good quality and small scale map of Francce with these symbols on? Regards Harold.

Try this site for routes, not sure if it includes campsites.

Michelin always used to produce maps with symbols on - I'm really shocked that they don't now - that was always a cross-reference with the Michelin books!    Are you sure that the newest book doesn't include campsite (Michelin recommendations change from year to year!).  If not then we all should get together and say how useful we find these maps (an essential part of holiday planning for us -don't know what we'll do now).

We've got a Camping Qualité (I think) fold-out with sites on, but it's not got anything like the number the old Michelin had of course!

We renewed our French Book of the Road last year & opted for a little square Atlas Routier. No campsites, but it does show aires on the motorway. And a plus from our point of view is it goes nicely on the passenger's lap & doesn't get flapped around in the driver's field of vision like the big old one we had, which I think was a Michelin.

Liz did you buy the book of the road in the UK?
