I need to put up the bill for our camp last friday. Two people, two tents and croissants delivered to our site in the morning by the site manager 19.60€. I left him the 40c change. A lovely bloke and a very nice site for those who don't demand all entertainment supplied pre-canned (here you make your own; sad that petanque boules weigh too much to cart around cycle-camping). Camping Le Penfaut, St Vincent sur Oust, Morbihan (Brittany), for those cycling the Brest-Nantes canal.
They also have a marquee with benches and tables and a shed with gas stove, microwave and fridge alongside for the lightweight campers. We were glad of that on the saturday morning, breakfasting while it rained!

Cycled from Dieppe to Marseille last September. Cheapest site less than 6 euro (municipal site on EV3). Most expensive 30 euro (commercial site on the Med coast). Guess which one was nicer?

Recent experience in France. Municipal sites 6-9 Euros. Commercial sites 14-20 Euros. 20 Euro site was on the coast and I had probably ventured into the high season.

Paid £11.50 in Kirkwall. That had good clean toilets and showers, and a kitchen and lounge. Nice for sitting around if its wet and windy.
