Aires

Are there an aires within walking distance of Armagh City?

Thanks.

Yes you can park at the rugby club but make yourself known to the barman. We have used it on a number of occasions.

We are heading for Rosslare tomorrow on way to France and Spain ....thinking of stopping over in Howth on way down it with all the talk of closure of Howth Pier we are unsure whether or not its actually still open at all or completely closed?? If so any other suggestions of a good half way stop on way down??

Thanks!! Brilliant news...read on this site that it had been closed! Used it before parking near the yacht club on middle pier, so what has changed if you can still park there?

Thanks Mark! Brilliant! It's Therese here, when do you head? We will do aires all the way down until we get into Spain..first time motorhoming in Spain so feel the need to be cautious and use sites there. Usually make our first stop in Ste Mere Eglise about half an hour south of Cherbourg. It's a great pace to stop for diesel, etc although we usually make it our last stopover on way back to boat. Lots of vans stopover there in main square in front of ww2 museum.

Thanks Mark will check this out

Good to hear.

Enjoy your trip.

Good French aires:

Sainte Mere Eglise, 30 mls south of Cherbourg on N13, diesel (1.29 ltr), motorhome station at petrol station; has SuprU and a ww2 museum, parking in village square at museum; shops yds away

Nozay is a very good aire, it's 194ms from Cherbourg on N137 south of Rennes, by a lake and local amenity park area, motorhome station in aire, (not brillant) couple of hundred yards from a good Super U which has diesel (1.32 ltr), wines to get you started and a motorhome station at the petrol station. CC entry ths year (5euros), whether you get electic point or not.

Mortagne-sur-Gironde 400 mls from Cherbourg off A10 (200 mls from Nozay) situated on Gironde estuary, lots of Motorhomes alongside the marina, very popular, need to get there early, 7.50 euros, whether you get electic or not, free access to Port wifi. Motorhome station at opp side of marina. Bread, frites, restaurants, etc at marina.

Buzet-sur-Baise, 535 mls from Cherbourg off A82 south of Bordeaux (135mls from Mortagne-sur-Gironde). Free aire at canal marina, water and toilets, electric only for boats, wifi from marina 2 euros. Next to quaint village with spar etc.

Hope this is useful to someone! Steadily heading south towards Spain!

When we were on the N10 recently they were installing toll booths. Not sure when they will be in use but it may be worth googling if you're thinking of using it.
Also, I wouldn't be worried about using most of the aires in Spain. The one in San Sebastian is great, and always busy so you should feel safe there.
Enjoy your trip!

I remember seeing the toll area being constructed when we went out at Easter, i forgot about that but i still prefer that way to going via Milau or Toulouse as its a flatter route when pulling a trailer.

Hi Pat,
The Aires is in the middle of the city, very central, I don't think there's a campsite in city

Hi Mc Geemobile,

Sorry i made a mistake i meant the aire in Barcelona,it was 30e for 24hr or 3e p hr.I stayed outside the aires in san sebastian (it was full) :wallbash:
