In this seaside town, motorhomes must find new places to park
Original source: actu.fr

Since May 23, 2024, the motorhome parking area at Wilson parking lot in La Bernerie-en-Retz (France) has been closed. The 35-space lot will be replaced by a health center. Authorities have set up a temporary 35–40 space lot near the sports complex (no water, electricity, or dump station) and are negotiating a permanent site on Rue René Guy Cadou. Agreements with three campsites have been made, and overnight parking bans aim to prevent unauthorized camping.
