Any advice please, changed from Motorhome to Caravan and looking to take it over 2024 and find a site where we can leave it for the whole year/ season.
We have covered most of France over the years so area does not bother us to much.
Any ideas or recommendations would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Welcome to UKCS.
Have a look at a recent thread called Your Top 3. Useful multiple votes for some areas. Site search then has a box to tick for Seasonals.
Forest View at Dorceau in Normandy (listed/reviewed on here) may suit you. The caravan lives at the site and they put it on a pitch for you whenever you want to visit, for as long as you want to stay.
As well is two words!
How does a sage know everything about everything? or does he? or does he just think he does?
Remember, if you buy something you bought it, not brought it.
That makes it more difficult, needing somewhere open all year round. You should be able to find some sites using the search engine on here and ticking the appropriate boxes.
Agreed that the 90/180 days is a real pain!
Finding a 'seasonal pitch' for a whole year is not easy in France. There isn't usually a concept of such a thing, except on British owned sites. There are campsite with storage, where they tow your caravan out to a pitch of your choice when you are visiting, or sites where you can rent a pitch for the whole of a season - but I don't know any sites which offer that for all year.
Because of the limited choice we've gone for storage in a 'hangar' and a choice of many sites, as far away as we want to tow. We used to have our caravan on a campsite with storage, but their opening dates were very limited.
Some of the more recent 'campsite search engines' offer the facility to find a seasonal pitch, but then you'd have to whittle down the numbers to those which are open all year. But looking at the results of the first seach doesn't show a lot of promise.
Spain is different and lots of sites offer annual rental of a pitch - friends have one on a site near Benidorm (I know) and they go there as often as 90/180 allows.?
If you do hit lucky and find on then please let me know.
