Thinking of doing the Hennessy tour in Cognac, has anyone done this tour, wondering where I can park a 7.5 metre motorhome so we can do the tour, had a look at Parkright, but no success. Thanks.
 
Hennessy.. Bit like the bleedin' obvious
You're better off doing the Armagnac distillery in Condom.
Less tourism, better products and they make you very welcome.
Parking nearby.
And you've got to take selfies of the town name signs.

Ps He played rugby for France..A bit of P***k ?
Colm Tucker played for Ireland as a replacement.
French TV displayed his name on TV as F***er !
 
Many years ago we parked in the town for an explore. Place de la levade. It was a proper Motorhome parking lot. I must have found it in all the Aires. It still shows in google maps. Also 2 location and recent reviews on search fo sites.

The Pharmacist in the town is dyslexic, so the sign in the window says 'Modcon' :rolleyes:

another one that parked at the aire on the opposite bank , very much like a distillery tour in scotland most of the same claims made as well , we had a very good barge tour on the board they used to ship it out on think it was included in price
 
Not sure but look up camping car park think I remember they got one nr by. Only by ear say
 
Went on the Otard trip many years ago. We even got a free trip over the river and a nice free bottle each at the end of the tasteing session.
 
A word of warning, if anyone fancies visiting cognac and plans to stay at the Aire opposite the Hennessy building that has 3 spaces. If there is a green converted horse wagon, find somewhere else to stay.

At around 2.30am I heard a car pull up with rowdy folk in it, they then made a right racket, one was continuing coughing as loud as possible, sounded like was one spewing up, they then put loud music on which and we're blasting some sort of an airhorn.

My Mrs looked out of our window and said she could see them snorting what looked like cocaine and wanted us to leave, so I got dressed and we went to another Aire.

There are also residents around that area, I bet they are thrilled with the racket this lot were making.
