France was one of the first countries to begin using mobile homes or static caravans for holidays purposes, and thank God they did because it forced the rest of Europe to follow suit, and, nice as camping holidays are, they lack a certain something in the comfort stakes.

So our site is showing most of the camping and mobile home resorts in France and the rest of Europe for the companies we believe are the market leaders in this field: Leisure Direction who offer a wonderful range of holidays in modern mobile homes throughout Europe; Selectcamp with their superb luxury mobile homes and tents, some of which even have bathrooms! Canvas Holidays who are also Europe wide, Thomson al Fresco, Siblu and Suncamp, Eurocamp and Keycamp

OK, well this may be the first time you have thought of booking a mobile home holiday and you are a tad unsure what it may or may not include. We always say, "Ask the owner or tour operator," but in general this is roughly what you will get when you hire a mobile from a British owned company, though bedrooms and bedroom space obviously depends on the model of mobile you are taking:-

Kitchen: They all come with fully equipped kitchens these days, cooking facilities, fridge/freezer, and  usually a micro wave oven is included as well Depending on whether your mobile is owned by a Brit or a French company you will get either a kettle or a coffee maker.

Living area: This differs from model to model of course, but generally they are open plan with a dining table and the sofa(s) will convert into a bed.

Bedrooms: Again the models differ but in general there is a double and a twin, and more often than not cot space is provided but you need to check on this prior to booking. Bedrooms have storage space.

Bathroom: The bathroom consists of a shower room, sink and toilet, though some models have a separate toilet.

Bed linen and towel hire: You will find that most mobile home accommodation is equipped with pillows and blankets – all you need to bring are towels, sheets and pillowcases. Alternatively, most companies offer a linen and towel hire service. Again, check what you need prior to booking.

Air-conditioning & decking: Normally this is an extra, so once more, we recommend that you check before booking, though if you need to hire then a rough guide is Air-conditioning from £1.50p.n, decking from £5p.n

Cots and highchairs: Very often your accommodation is equipped with a cot facility as standard if you are staying in a mobile home or lodge, but most companies have them on site for you to hire if needed.

Free barbeque: Very often there is a FREE barbeque with all accommodation (where site rules allow)

France is one of the best countries in Europe to have a mobile home holiday. That doesn't mean to say that the mobiles are any bettter or worse than anywhere else, it just means that France itself plus the atmosphere, the food, the weather (usually) all combined with the accommodation make for an unforgettable holiday. Added to all that are your neighbours on the campsite who can be a joy as we have often found, and when you get to know a few the evenings can be quite a social occasion.

Mobile homes, or static caravans if you like, are abundant throughout France, like fleas on a dog's back in fact, right around the coastline and inland as well, and all to tempt the tourist in search of a holiday and some sunshine. As well as mobile homes to rent or hire for a week or two France also has a mini industry in selling them and you will find them advertised for sale in every corner of the country. Most of the tour operators have some stock to sell at the end of the season as well so you could get a bargain if you have the cash.
