    We have had campsite managers in France make doctor and dentist appointments for us, and I am sure a campsite will also be able to make a vet recommendation and appointment for you before you return home.

    thanks, yes planning to spend 4 days in Cherbourg area on our return so that we can get sorted. Spanish sites also good at doing this.

    All the Vets on my Google Map have been used and recommended by Motorhomes owners, and a few Caravan owners, and although some prices may need up-dating the information is reasonably accurate.

    Parking references are for Motorhome users as Caravan owners usually walk to the Vet or use their car.

    Many Caravan owners who use campsite ask for recommendations from the Site owners and, quite honestly, can be a godsend or a nightmare.

    Most are reasonable prices but one owner who used a Campsite 'recommended' Vet was charged €110 for the Pet Passport visit – that Vet isn't on the Map.

    I've used the Vet at St Lo a few years ago - it certainly wasn't the cheapest in the area but was very convenient at the time.

    I often appeal for dog owners to let me know which Vet they used but only a fraction bother responding.

    So, any recommended Vets appreciated.

    The nearer to the port the exponentially more expensive they get for what is a 50p worming tablet and one minute max to stamp the passport. Cheapest vet we had was €10 in Austria, most expensive was €70 in France, talk about taking the p..... out of tourists....
