After a good nights sleep we woke to a much reduced temperature. 20 degrees C outside and about the same inside. With the knowledge we had only about a half a mile to travel, we weren't in a hurry to move off but, all the same, wanted to get to our final destination and settle as soon as we could. We set off at 9.10 am.
Could we find the site we had booked? could we heck. We travelled back and forth through the narrow streets of Nesles and Parmian, up steep hills and round 90 degree bends looking for signs to our site. We even asked strangers for directions but they were not aware of a camping site nearby.
Eventually we found a place on the road where we could stop, with the caravan, and went into a Pharmacy. They were most helpful and directed us, road by road to our site. We arrived here around 11.30 am and it was, exactly as it said on its website. We soon found a pitch that suited and set up, tired but happy to put our feet up for a few days before the journey home.
The site here is quite beautiful. It has a lake with its own island and, what appears to be, a resident heron. Ducks and birds of all kinds in a beautifully laid out site with trees and bushes and enormous grass pitches, all with electric and water.
The facilities are good too, showers, loos and washing and washing up areas, all with scalding unlimited hot water.
There is a mini-market, small restaurant, excellent Wi-Fi although it comes at a price.
We're here until Sunday when we leave for Bien Assise, Calais, our final stop before home.
