Centre

‘Le Centre’ can more aptly be described as being the centre section of northern France.

Referred to as the ‘garden of France’, much of its produce consists of quality fruits and vegetables. It is also renowned for its beautiful flowered parks and gardens. Savouring the colour, scent and peacefulness on an afternoon stroll makes wonderful holiday memories.

The Loire Valley is the main feature of the region with many sights and activities to enjoy. The Loire River provides a stunning centrepiece to the region and creates ideal opportunities for canoeing, kayaking, walking and cycling. The wealth of impressive chateaux and historic towns has welcomed many poets and writers seeking inspiration.

Major towns and cities

  • Tours – Site of the Paris-Tours road bicycle race and largest city in the region
  • Orléans – The town boasts many historical sites and pretty streets to explore
  • Chateauroux – enjoys a tranquil, laid-back atmosphere for holidaymakers

Top questions

How do I book an overseas site?

Overseas site bookings can be made online. Discounts are common when you combine a site booking with your ferry or Eurotunnel crossing.  

Does the Club take deposits for overseas bookings?

Yes, deposits for overseas bookings are calculated at 20% for a site and 25% for a ferry (unless it is a non-refundable ferry/Eurotunnel in which case full payment is due at time of booking). The final balance is due 10 weeks prior to travel.

Is the standard of overseas sites similar to that of the UK?

European sites are star-rated by local authorities and will have different standards and regulations to the UK. The Club's site inspectors ensure they are of a high standard for our members.
