A French couple, Alain and Martine, gave up motorhoming after six vehicles due to parking difficulties. During a three-day holiday they spent over five hours searching for a spot, and in one summer they drove 1850 km, most of it spent looking for parking. They sold their latest motorhome and bought a converted estate car with a folding mattress, storage boxes, a compact stove and a modular boot. They now stay in guesthouses, authorised car parks and campsites, planning trips in the low season and on weekdays.
