Since June 26, 2026, the town of Flers (Orne) has been offering a parking area for motorhomes and camper vans on the grounds of Saint-Thomas-d'Aquin school. Twelve spaces are available on weekends and during school holidays. The site has no electricity or water supply and is intended for self-contained vehicles. The 'Camper at School' scheme allocates 50% of parking revenue to the school for educational projects.

French magazine Camping-Car Magazine has published a list of events in Normandy in October 2026 suitable for motorhome owners. The list includes the Planches Contact festival in Deauville (17 October to 3 January 2027), the scallop festival in Villers-sur-Mer (23–25 October), which attracts over 25,000 people annually, and apple and cider festivals in Touques (11 October), Beuvron-en-Auge (25 October), Conches-en-Ouche (25 October) and Vimoutiers (17–18 October). Granville will host 'All the Sea on a Plate' on 3–4 October, and Le Havre will hold the Ouest Park music festival on 16–17 October. Nearby campsites and motorhome parking areas are listed for some events; a night in Beuvron-en-Auge costs €10.

The town of Pornichet has launched a call for expressions of interest to find an operator for the Ermur motorhome site, covering 2,135 m² and accommodating between 20 and 30 pitches. Applications are due by 5 October 2026 at 12:00. The future operator will finance the necessary infrastructure, pay the town an annual fee of at least €5,000 plus a variable component, and collect and remit the tourist tax. Parking tariffs and whether the site will remain free or become paid have not yet been determined.

French motorhome owners often cite a “15-day rule”, but under Article R.111-49 of the Urban Planning Code, a mayor may authorise caravans in an area where camping is normally prohibited for a maximum of 15 days by decree. On private land, a motorhome is treated as a caravan: if it stays less than three months per year (cumulative), no declaration is required; beyond that, a prior declaration is mandatory. On public roads, parking in the same place for more than seven consecutive days can be deemed abusive, and the mayor may reduce this period. The case of Patrick and Isabelle shows that even a nine-year oral agreement does not create a right if the land is jointly owned and new heirs object.

In France, a caravan or motorhome parked on private land for more than three consecutive months may be reclassified as an installation subject to prior declaration or planning permission. Local urban plans (PLU) can impose stricter rules, including bans on long-term parking in some areas. Neighbours may also file civil complaints over nuisance, regardless of town hall requirements.
