I have emailed them. I expect no reply whatsoever. The tourist office will surely not open for months and no one will think to look at the inbox. The recce will pay a visit.
Golly! A reply has arrived from the Lisieux tourist office. My question was: how do we make a reservation?
The answer is: "how many emplacements do you want?"
This does not answer the question, obvs.
Two points spring to mind:
- Fridays using one small tent are unlikely to want to pay for an entire emplacement designed for a caravan or motorhome. There might be what is called a "backpackers area".
- Those using a caravan or motorhome will need a bigger, individual, emplacement.
Of these two points, the third one is:
3. Not all campers will necessarily want pitches for the same period. Some may arrive earlier or leave later.
The best way forward looks to be that campers email the Lisieux tourist office and ask for one emplacement. But as we don't go for six months it may be that the tourist office, in the way of these things, will promise a reservation that will then be lost in the mists of time.
