63 Gestoun de Miegelane, 31440, Fronsac
Been here?
A roadside picnic area beside the river, with tables, shade, garbage bins and an outdoor tap for filling water. The toilets are currently closed, although facilities may vary when they are open. The river is nearby for walking and bathing, but road traffic creates noticeable noise. The site is useful for a stop or water refill rather than sleeping.

Adequate area for filling up with water. Toilets closed. Indeed, this is not a place to sleep, but it is convenient for filling up with water.Translating
There are toilets, tables and a drinking-water tap. For sleeping, the road is probably too close, but for getting water, eating and swimming it is perfect.Translating
The area is now neat and tidy, with the river close by. There is some noise from cars.Translating
We went there to fill our water tank. There is an outdoor tap with a push button for filling containers. If the toilets are open, as they were for us, you can screw a connector onto a tap under the sinks and fill using a hose. Good pressure!Translating
For one emergency night. Noisy road, but if you ignore that, you can sleep peacefully because the area itself is not busy. You can walk along the riverbank; a pleasant walk with the dog. Free water; I didn't test the toilets. However, the place is abandoned and poorly maintained... you should know that!Translating
This should have been a quality service area, but it is ABYSMAL. Dirty and abandoned; you could shoot a horror film here. Avoid.Translating
A place to stop while travelling. There is a water fountain, toilets and access to the river for a refreshing swim in summer.Translating
Service area on both sides of the road. Good for a picnic, as there are a few shaded spaces! (Bins.) We did not test the toilets... lots of traffic on the road; it could work for sleeping, but only as a last resort.Translating
Beware, the area is more than dirty, to put it mildly… OK for collecting water. As for the toilets, I preferred to use the dry toilet in my van. You can go there to sleep; there is a small patch of water where dogs can cool off, but don't count on the toilets...Translating
Ideal because it is right next to the road and you don't have to detour, but there is barely enough space for large motorhomes… one fits, and it is outside the shade of the trees.Translating
