Camping-Car Park network and the commune of Fontenoy-la-Joûte in Meurthe-et-Moselle have announced the opening of a 12-pitch motorhome stopover. Located at 2 Route de Glonville, it has been operational since August 5. The site offers electricity, drinking water, Wi-Fi, waste water disposal, waste collection and security. Camping-Car Park, a private network founded in 2011, operates over 800 stopovers and campsites across Europe and plans to open 225 more in 2026. The company reports average user spending of €56, with €44 benefiting local shops, and claims to have paid over €16 million to partner municipalities in 2025, though these figures are not independently verified.

French woman travels France in motorhome at 103 after doctors gave her days to live

In 2017, Dominique Cavanna was hospitalized in Seine-Saint-Denis with a diagnosis of "giving-up syndrome." Doctors gave her only days to live. Her granddaughter Fiona Lauriol took her out of the hospital and embarked on a motorhome journey. From 2019 to 2020, they traveled through Spain, Portugal, and Andorra. Cavanna died in 2020 at age 103, smiling in her sleep. The story is recounted in Lauriol's book "101 Years Old, Grandma Hits the Road."
