Just wondering if there is water available on Bleu Nord to fill up the water tank on our motorhome, or whether we'd need to fill up before we get there.


Also, is there somewhere relatively close to Bleu Nord where we might be able to get daily consumables such as bread ? Once the motorhome is parked up we'll only have bikes, so don't really want to have to go miles every day for our baguettes wink

Thanks everyone

There are outside taps just by the entrance toilets. Slap a hose pipe on that.

Super U isn't massively far away.
When you come out of the campsite, turn right. end of that road, turn left right at the round about, end of that road is superU on your left. Thats where we did all our shopping, regulars might know better places though.

Great stuff, thanks. I thought the supermarches in Arnage were further away, but that's not too far at all.

I drive when I'm in le mans, so i could be misjudging the distance. I just hope i'm not!
Either way, you'll be fit by the end of it lol

See, this is where I may get slightly devious wink

I've got a newbie friend coming to the Classic, and it'll be his first time at Le Mans, so I'm working very much on the basis that I can rely on his enthusiasm to offer to go and get the bread, etc. hehe

Even if I only get one trip out of him it'll save my legs a bit biglaugh

I know that there are vans which come round the campsites selling things like bread, croissants and even ice!

But the Super U is not far away and has a good (cheap) selection of beer and wine smile

Sunday evening we were greeted by the slightly surreal sight of a British ice cream van doing the rounds around Bleu Nord. Was very, very welcome though !!
