LabradorMonty Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Hi. Can anyone recommend a good, safe aire for a motorhome near to a traffic free cycle route in Northern France please? We are looking for somewhere good to cycle with our Labrador after we leave Paris on 27th December. Come home on 5th January - not many sites open that are suitable for our Autotrail Mohawk. Any suggestions? Wonder if anyone knows a vet in or near Calais for our return journey.....?? Caroline & Chris Carter-Frost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zydeco Joe Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 We have used the very good and large aire at Bergues about half hour from Calais. You will have no problem with the size of your van as the aire is on a old red gravel football pitch.Good shopping in the local area but not sure of the cycling but you are in France and Le Bike rules LOL.

Tracker Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Or buy the books and map of all the decent Aires in France from Vicarious Books? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nomad Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 the aire at Le Crotoy has access to a wonderful cycle path which is well away from the road and goes for many miles. Colin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basil Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 The aire at Neufchatel en Bray is right opposite an 'Avenue Verte' that was an old railway line, a really pleasant ride, it is just off the A28 at the town. You need to check opening times at the time you are intending travelling though, we have never been at that time. Bas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin And in nearby Rue, there is a good vet with parking suitable for a motorhome. Or if a Mohawk is a bit too big, there are 2 supermarkets with huge parking literally 2 minutes walk away.

Used the vet this year, and the service was excellent. If you want more than just an overnight stop, the Aires the other side of the estuary at St Valery is much nicer. It costs more but for a couple of nights it won't break the bank. You can get on the same cycle path,the town has more going on,and for a winter visit the surface you park on will not be like a lake, if it is wet at all.

Sydney1 Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Plus 1 for Neufchatel Just up the road is a large supermarket with fuel plus an Aldi. The is a campsite and the aire is adjacent.Fairly compact but manage to get our 9m AT Scout in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
