At the end of the 1980s, many different quality labels were created in several regions on the initiative of professionals, consumers or tourist bodies, and offered to campsites.
In 1999, in view of the huge number of different labels and the confusion this could cause, the French National Outdoor Accommodation Federation (FNHPA), representing the industry, and the French Federation of Campers, Caravanners and Motorhome Owners (FFCC), representing campers, took the initiative to get together and create a single quality charter.
– That all French campsites, irrespective of size, category or location, would be able to sign up
– That the approach would help develop the quality of French outdoor accommodation
