In Brief
In Guérande and Villedieu-les-Poêles, college car parks now host paid motorhome areas. Operator Camping-Car Park shares revenue with the schools.
This summer, two French college car parks have been converted into motorhome parking areas. In Guérande (Loire-Atlantique), the car park of the Saint-Jean-Baptiste college now offers a paid area with 11 spaces and no service facilities. The rate is 12 euros per night, with half going to the school. The operator is Camping-Car Park. The initiative is a pilot: if successful, the area could open on weekends and during holidays.
In Villedieu-les-Poêles, the car park of the Saint-Joseph college has been turned into a six-space motorhome area for the summer holidays, located near shops and services. The project is run by Camping-Car Park together with the college. Part of the revenue from the Guérande site will fund school projects.
