Parc Highlights

  • Just 20 minutes from Paris centre & 40 minutes from Disneyland

  • Great for fly-drive, just 1 hour by metro from Paris CDG airport

  • 5 Minutes to Maisons Laffitte, with its wide choice of bars and restaurants

While it makes discovering the delights of Paris easy, International is also a tranquil and relaxing parc.

Paris offers so many famous sights - the Louvre, Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, Notre Dame and Sacré Coeur, to name but a few. Or perhaps you’d rather sit at a café as the world passes by? International parc makes it all easy, lying as it does on an island of the Seine in the lovely Paris suburb of Maison-Laffitte. The beauty of this parc is the ease with which it brings you into Paris Gard du Nord via the nearby railway station with its rapid, frequent service day or night. You should note however, that you may hear trains and barges from your accommodation. Opening at Easter, this is an ideal destination for a short break in its own right, or as a memorable stop during your main holiday.

Families travelling with small children please note that some of our mobile home pitches are located close to open water. Please call for more details.

Neighbouring pitches are available to book on this parc. Please call our travel advisors to check availability for the 2012 season.

Local Directions

From A13: As you approach Paris on the A1, start looking closely for St Denis /Nanterre (A86) signs after you pass the A3 turnoff. As soon as you start to see A86 signs for Aubervilliers/St Denis, move into the far right hand lane, but watch out for the slip road joining from the right behind you. Take the A86 St Denis exit and take care with the sharp bends. You will pass the Stade de France on your right hand side. Stay on the A86 direction St Denis until you reach junction two. Take this exit and as you travel down the slip road stay in the right hand lane. When you reach the traffic lights at the end of the slip road, you need to take the traffic lights on the right hand side to turn right, but try to get into the left-hand lane of these traffic lights. As the road bears round to the right, stay in the left lane and it will automatically take you up over the flyover, which bears, to the left signposted towards Poissy. If you miss the flyover, carry on and at the next junction turn left and you will see the flyover on your left, with its exit joining your road. Keep going straight on through Sartrouville and various sets of traffic lights and a mini roundabout and more sets of traffic lights until eventually you will see the Chateau of Maisons Laffitte in front of you. At the roundabout take the third exit and follow the road round to the right and up towards the town centre. The road inclines upwards and you are looking for the second turning on the left, in front of a small shop. This is at the brow of the hill, with a sign on the left-hand side (on a large White House with shuttered windows) for 'Camping International'. If you pass a Credit Agricole on your right hand side you have gone too far up the hill. Turn left here and continue over two sets of crossroads and up to a 'T' junction. At the junction turn left along rail-lines and immediately right at the next 'T' junction as you pass over the railway. Continue along this one way street (watch out for speed bumps) until you reach a crossroads. Turn left here; continue down the hill and after 200 yards the road leads directly to the campsite. You will find the reception under the trees on your right-hand side.
