    If you go to any dealer selling French bottles (Le cube, Atargaz, Primagas etc) should be able to fix you up with a contract for a bottle and a suitable pigtail. This will then be useful for all future trips. Remember, French gas is also usable here!
    I have a Gaslow refillable but I also carry a Repsol bottle for Spain, really useful as another option. You might consider a refillable if you're going to do lots of continental travel.

    I agree, get one of the major brands (ELFI is another), readily available from filling stations. Camping Gaz is a very expensive option.
