An exhibition of oversized motorhomes is held in Morbihan. Owners, including Serge and Anne from Quimper, sold their homes and live in these vehicles all year.
The Marseille Rugby Méditerranée club said its grounds in Saint-Menet are occupied by more than 80 caravans, leaving 650 registered players and staff unable to train. The club says this happens every summer and that authorities have not addressed the issue. Previous incidents involved nearly 100 caravans, and repairs to changing rooms after earlier occupations took months. The club is urging authorities to act rather than shift responsibility.
French authorities are tightening parking rules for motorhomes and campervans. In several communes, including Noirmoutier, paid parking zones have been introduced, with fines for violations. Local regulations sometimes conflict with national law, creating legal uncertainty for travelers.
Experts explain how to prepare a motorhome for long-term storage. Recommendations include thoroughly cleaning the interior and exterior, completely draining water tanks, filling the system with antifreeze, removing or disconnecting the battery, and partially filling the fuel tank. Tires should be inflated to maximum pressure, and the vehicle should ideally be placed on blocks in a closed space. Ventilation and sealing openings are advised to prevent mold and rodents.
