Big Momma Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Having just returned from France myself I found that Diesel prices varied from €1.57 at Motorway Service Stations to €1.36 in the smaller villages and towns. Still cheaper than UK though :-D We only ate out in a restaruant on our last evening, the rest of the time we bought provisions from supermarkets, local shops and markets but didn't find it any more expensive than UK, in fact we thought that a lot of basics were probably a bit cheaper, not by much but every Euro counts (lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesFrance Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 hallii if you are interested in the canal there is a very interesting motorhome parking at the summit level where the canal feeder comes in from the Black mountain. Good for a quiet overnight stay.
