A new paid service area for motorhomes, managed by the Camping-Car Park network, opened in the commune of Puylaurens in the Tarn department in July 2025. It offers 16 pitches at a cost of 15.30 euros per night, equipped with electricity, Wi-Fi, and a waste disposal point, but lacks sanitary facilities and does not accept vehicles with trailers or those longer than 9 meters. The area is located a few dozen meters from Lake Bagatelle.
