Left the free aire, full and empty. The EHU went off at some point in the evening and did not come back on disappointing.
We decided to head off via the Simpler tunnel having googled D934 France to check the suggested route, 2nd result was dangerousroads.org apparently it is a famous overhang road and not for the faint hearted so we have given it a miss.
Somport tunnel is a great route easy and fast with little hassle Spanish side is much better than French.
We stopped for a coffee and discovered the temp had risen to 22c. Filled with some petrol and decided to head for the next Aire. This was a carpark with some facilities outside a police station, but was in a poor state of repair and a bit too close to a main road.
Onto the next, which was a free vineyard near Arbrec, Vinya Els Vilars, free everything, toilet, wash basins etc…
And they sell wine not cheap wine so 2 red, 1 white and and oil 59€.
Lovely tea, cooked and eaten outside whilst our bread cooked inside.
Moved on from Versailles, it started raining so good decision, due to the road works and tarmac lorries the main route out was blocked so we turned right expecting to reach Ave de Versailles and turn up to the palace and out to the main road away from Paris. The Sat nav told us to go right towards Paris, it was a interesting route and we skirted the periphic.
Cracked avoiding tolls so a tedious drive but much better eventually reached Chartres and the N10 a good road and easy enough stopped just before tours for lunch and then decided to stop after tours at a shop for fuel and some bread.
An intermarche at Ste. Maure de Touraine provided fuel, whisky and bread. Checked out Campercontact and found a few on the route one very nearby, so headed off as we took the route it began to ring a few bells as we turned in realised we had been before Le Bois Chaudron. 2years ago with Geza, for the vet, Geza was ill all night and the next day we ended going to the vet in Gace.
4euro for the night no electric and no rubbish bins, but pleasant and a convenient stop it seems as we have used it twice.
Good nights sleep.

Nice site, good walks for dogs, facilities as they are are good, very neat and tidy, near the road but quiet at night. Being on a bend crossing the road from the site need to be careful.
Issue for Motorhomes, we use a 6.4m motorhome and only just managed to fit on a hardstanding pitch, the hardstanding pitches are small (very small), some are much bigger but obviously more popular. It is impossible to pitch in the traditional manner of car, van, awning and gap, just not possible. The difference in the awning and non awning pitch size is negligible. Grass pitch sizes are better but Motorhomes discouraged from using when we went, although very firm and not sloping.
We would stay again as nice site and for us a good location but disappointed by the pitch size.
14/pn inc EHU with Awning (hahahaha)
