Swim in the river next to Les Grez camping?

Camping there is really cheap too. Or they might let you nip in for a shower. Nice coffee truck there too which you could maybe sneak a shower after visiting?

Quill was at Grez in van last week, only 7 euro a night but might be busy as sin now. It's where I'd stay if vanning. Showers were basic but OK. Alternatively, as half of Sheff is in Font this week, tap up a homie with a gite and swap a shower for beer?

I’ll be in a gite in the Milly area from tomorrow evening for a week. No idea what the showers like, but your welcome to arrange to pop round if you want.

We used to do night time raids to the shower block at La Musardiere (sp?) campsite when we were young, keen & broke.

Obviously I'm not condoning this kinda thing, you could probably go legit for a few Euros.

If you hitch hike around the Perepherique there's a good chance an older man would ppick you up and have you back and offer you a shower.

Speaking from experience?
