Camping site in Creuse generates income for commune
Original source: France 3 Nouvelle-Aquitaine

The La Cazine campsite in Noth (Creuse) has been a premium motorhome park since 2024. Last year, the commune earned €25,000 from 27 motorhome pitches created in 2023. At about €15 per night, the 30 pitches are often full. France has over 500,000 motorhomes, the market boomed after COVID, but Creuse remains unaffected by saturation.
