robertandjean Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 A few weeks ago Crinckly asked about Aires that would satisfy certain conditions: Quite day and night, spacious, pleasant view/pretty outlook and no irritating fellow campers!!! Well have been through our data base of one's we have stayed on and most of these should fit the bill on at least two or three of these criteria. St Pourcain sur Sioule 03 Caille 06 Mouzon 08 Lagrasse 11 Montferrand 11 Peyriac de mer 11 Cuges les pins 13 St honorine des pertes 14 Mortagne sur Grionde 17 St sevin duzet 17 Soubise 17 Sadroc 19 Sourzac 24 Mouth 25 Broglie 27 St clar 32 Fontet 33 Neuillay les bois 36 Arinthod 39 Nozay 44 Cardaillac 46 Gourdon 46 Caumont sur Garonne 47 Turquant 49 Bouere 53 Dun sur meuse 55 Bertry 59 Cauterets 66 Gavarine 66 Corre 70 Vernoux en Gatine 79 Conty 80 Trigance 83 Visan 84 Chateau Larcher 86 Gurgy 89 Hope this helps. Anyone want further info on these or any other Aires just ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek Uzzell Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 The "spacious, pleasant view/pretty outlook" criteria are easy enough to satisfy, but the "Quiet day and night...no irritating fellow campers" are not. We overnighted at the St Jean-sur-Mayenne aire last week. http://www.aire-service-camping-car-panoramique.fr/mayenne/53-saint-jean-sur-mayenne Work is currently being carried out during weekdays to install more 230V service-pedestals, so daytime noise is to be expected. What we hadn't anticipated was the 2am arrival at the aire of the occupants of the motorhome in the next emplacement who then decided it was essential to have a prolonged and LOUD conversation. I also recall arriving at Bouere (53) once http://www.campingcar-infos.com/Francais/airepda.php?numid=5473&Localit%E9=BOU%C8RE to find it taken over by travellers. It's useful to have advice on stopping places that are physically attractive, but unrealistic to believe that staying at such places can be relied on to be pleasant. (This, of course, is equally true for campsites.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverback Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Cheers R & J logged in my data base do you have a website or similar that has aires etc on? we are just starting out full/part timing it would be useful jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barryd999 Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 I find that there is a forumla for finding the perfect quiet Aire. Personally I try to avoid the large ones that take 20 vans or more as you can pretty much guarentee they will be popular and there is a good chance of being parked next to or near someone annoying! Look for an Aire thats not near anything. Aires that are within walking distance of somewhere interesting or a nice town will be full. The one 3 miles up the road in a small village with no shops will be empty. We then just use the scooter to visit the interesting town or park the van in the busy aire and move off to the quiet one later. :-D My preference is country aires that take up to 5 -10 vans. After a while by constantly reading www.camping-car-infos.com you just get a feel for what will suit your needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepe63xnotuse Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Hmmm.....So does no one else see the possible drawback, in posting a list of pleasant, tranquil, scantly populated, locations on the internet then? :-S As for any snidey comments about whether Crinkly in "interested" or not, has it ever occurred that he just hasn't seen the thread?!... *-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crinkly's most recent forum logon was 19 October,. There's a good chance, then, that he won't have seen this thread, particularly if (like me) he does not bother accessing the internet when motorcaravanning.

Same here Derek,I can't say that I've ever felt the desire to log-in to an internet forum, whilst I'm away on my hols.... ;-) Granted,if it's for "advice" purposes,then fair enough but to just to "have a chat"(bicker!), then why bother? :-S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone want further info on these or any other Aires just ask. Can we just keep them our little secret please, especially from the Brit to*ser who monopolized the free one hour hookup on one we recently stayed at, by pushing the button every hour, I'd have dearly loved to have pushed his bloody button. >:-( and another selfish Brit who took up two bays out of four by spreading out his table and chairs, I was so tempted to reverse over them, maddening behavior so often displayed.

robertandjean Posted October 27, 2013 Author Share Posted October 27, 2013 Thanks for all the supportive comments much appreciated. Can not understand the do not tell any one about good Aires idea as the town's and villages that provide them surely want people to use them and spend money there.
