we are going to pinoso in November with caravan. Can anyone give me any tips on where to stopover , preferably so we don’t have to unhitch the caravan . Also do you have to pay on these places . We won’t be going on the Paris route . A28 and A16 down to Bordeaux

    It's too far ahead to plan now for next November, and I haven't the faintest idea of how far you want to drive each day .  

    But unless you want to stay hitched up overnight free of charge at motorway service stations or on supermarket car parks you will find a choice of campsites every ten or twelve miles - cost about £15 and much more comfortable, but you will probably have to unhitch. .

    PS.  My own choice if I were to go at that time of year would be to use the Portsmouth to St Malo ferry if it is running - and then run down the west side of France with campsites open all year including the ones at Rennes, Blain, Nantes, St Valerien, Fouras , Bordeaux and Urrugne. Once across Spain it would probably be Zaragoza.

    Afternoon

    As AD says above, Camping Riazza and Aranjuez both will let you stay hitched up. Aranjuez has a lot of itinerants living there in the winter but I prefer Riazza as it's easier to get back on the motorway, we normally overnight there going south to Murcia. Any luck I'll be parked in their roadway on 4th October!!

    Will probably try campsites although a lot look shut at the end of October, the only definite place we will stay is the baia de Somme , that’s the kind of place we were looking at . We will have to go on the Euro tunnel as we have dogs
