The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Small, quiet esplanade 200 m from Bonneval Abbey entrance, roadside but secluded. About 6 parking spaces for light vehicles; access via narrow 3 km road. No on-site services, but abbey's chocolate shop opens at 9:30 am. Toilets available at abbey. Very calm at night, with surrounding valley views and local wildlife.
