The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Free parking next to the municipal campground (closed off-season), along the Charente river, 1 km north of Saintes town center. Very quiet and peaceful. Water access confirmed. No facilities (toilets/showers). Toleration of motorhomes varies by season and maintenance work. Pleasant stopping point before exploring historic Saintes.
Highlights

Good to know
- No amenities (no toilets or showers)
- Motorhome tolerance uncertain depending on season and municipal closures
