If this is a daft question, well it's because I am! I've decided to take the children to France for a week or so in the late summer, I've noticed after reading a few posts here that some sites provide camping furniture (table, chairs, fridge etc) - Is this the norm or the exception?

It would be so much easier to just have to worry about the tent, clothiers etc rather than wedging chairs, table etc etc in. Any recommendations for sites that seem to provide the paraphernalia for you would be very welcome.

Given I'm already in the north, I wouldn't want to venture too far south in France, perhaps to the vendee as the furthest point.

I know that the "Castels" chain of campsites offer a premium pitch with the fridge, chairs etc.  If you google the website, it will give you a list of all their campsites

My post from last year shows some of the Castels "premium" pitches and this map shows their sites in the Vendee. Domain des Forges isn't in the group now.

There may be other sites offering similar facilities, not sure. Good luck.

My advice is worth no more than the price paid for it
