From 29 April to 3 May 2026, the leisure centre in Mansigné (Sarthe) hosted 200 motorhomes accommodating about 350 people. The event was organised by the local branch of the French Federation of Campers, Caravanners and Motorhomers. Activities included themed evenings and excursions such as a visit to the Montabon rotunda and a cruise on the Sarthe River. According to the president of the South Sarthe community of communes, the event aims to boost the region's tourism appeal among nature and proximity travel enthusiasts.

The Baud family from France sold their house and has been living in a motorhome since July 2025. They tested the vehicle for a year before buying it for 62,000 euros. The motorhome is equipped with solar panels, a 100-liter water tank, and a filtration system. The family plans to travel through Europe and later visit the US and Mexico, with a budget of about 2,000 euros per month.

Chris Haslam, travel editor of The Sunday Times, said he prefers a tent and SUV to a motorhome after 26 years of traveling in motorhomes. He argues that motorhomes, weighing up to three tons and measuring 6-7 meters long, are difficult to maneuver, while setting up a tent takes less than five minutes. Haslam also believes that motorhomes, as 'bungalows on wheels', limit contact with nature. In 2025, France saw 94,369 new and used motorhome registrations, a 2.46% increase from the previous year.
