Motorhome to Spa Belgium GP

[Cam]

Has anyone been to the Belgium Grand Prix at Spa Francorchamps in a motorhome?

 

Quite fancy going in August and wondered if there is any recommendations for campsites near the track. Don't mind being a bit away as we can go from the campsite to the track on the scooter.

 

We have been to Spa a few years ago to a trackday and stopped in a local hotel, but fancy the motorhome this time. Anything else I need to think about?

I went to spa for the le Mans series and the only place we could find was called the racing hotel only 5 minute's walk from the track http://www.francorchamps-racing-hotel.be/en/home-29.php sound lovely on the Website but OMG it was the worst campsite I've ever stayed in the gents looks were so bad your eyes burned with the fumes. I'll try and get some pics up later. But there is lots of fields around which I'm sure would be used for campsites at F1 weekend but no idea how you could find out

Spa is the best F1 track but has the worst facilities of any circuit.  Been once and wouldn't rush back

Thanks for the advice all.

 

Sounds like a bad idea then......................... go to plan B ....................... BTCC at Knockhill instead.

Like pistonbroke says you won't regret it it's an amazing circuit worth putting up with the bad campsite just to watch the race there

As said, facilities a bit lacking but it's a great place and a brilliant circuit. Well worth walking round a complete lap if you can, Eau Rouge is soooo steep (21% gradient!).
