The Camper’s take

Parking at Nancay Astronomical Centre in Berry region. Very quiet spot for an overnight stay with flat, asphalted surface. Selective waste bins available. Access restricted to 3.5-tonne vehicles (road weight limit). Main requirement: airplane mode mandatory to avoid interfering with radio telescope. Interesting astronomy site to visit nearby.
