The principle is
simple. Motorhome and campervan owners displaying
the France Passion sticker can stay overnight or for
24 hours at the farms and vineyards free of charge.
With no booking it's on a first come basis. All that
is necessary to enjoy this amazing stopover network
is to remember to say "Hello" and "Goodbye"! Don't
worry if your French isn't excellent, over 450 identify
that they speak English. In addition nearly all of
them identify that they can take motorhomes over 3.5tons.
France Passion is one of those schemes that really
lets you get into the culture of France. You really
do mix with the locals and try the local delicacies.
What's more it's all free.
This French scheme has 1400 farms and vineyards that allow self-contained motorhomes and campervans to stop for 24 hours on their properties. This cannot be considered as camping as no facilities are required to be available and no payment is made to the host. You may
well need to use the excellent French aires de service
network to dump your waste and fill your water tanks.
You should also buy the excellent All The Aires France
guide featured to the left. Most of the host establishments have produce to sell; this is listed in the guide in French. Wine, champagne, olives, honey, meat, snails, milk, cheese etc may be available and although you are not obliged to make a purchase you should accept an invitation to view their wares.
The
France Passion invitations book is written in three
languages including English,
German and French.
Directions,
for example; Coming out of Vernou take the D46 Chateaurenault
road. Go under the railway bridge and take the second
road on the left (D62).
No GPS coordinates. The publisher of France Passion has decided not to publish GPS coordinates.

Who should
buy the book?
If you prefer the
security of campsites but want to dip a toe onto the
water of the freedom of motorhoming, then this scheme
is perfect for you.
Perhaps you enjoy the countryside, and want to explore
the diversity of rural France safe in the knowledge
that you can enjoy a glass or two of otherwise undiscovered
wine in the evening. Or even if you have a large motorhome
and want to be guaranteed that you will be accepted.
