Hi, I am planning my first family camping holiday in France this year and would like a little advice please:
I am planning on taking a camping gaz type two burner stove - will a circa 2kg gas bottle (ie campinggaz 904) be adequate for 2 weeks (I know this depends on how much I use it, but assume a cooked meal per day and cups of tea!), and is it easy to get them refilled/exchanged on French camp sites.
Many thanks for any assistance.
Regards
Neil
I'm afraid that I can't help you as regards campsites, but there are plenty of places to refill/exchange gas canisters, usually the local supermarket is the best bet, or you could try diy places such as Castorama or Mr. Bricolage.
Be careful though - you may have to enter into a contract with a garage / supermarket and rent the bottle plus the gas. The campsite should be able to sort you out without insisting on a "deposit"
Campingaz exchange is no problem
Most sites stock it if not 90% of Supermarché have camping sections with gaz in stock

Hi, should last out okay but camping gaz is easy to get hold of at most major supermarkets. It's 'Calor' you can't get. Have a great time !
