We've camped around the UK, New Zealand and, of course, Canada and the USA. Some observations about camping in France.
Like the UK, picnic tables are not provided. In both places, campers seem to bring little folding tables with them. So for us, arriving by plane, sans table, it means standing around, cooking on the ground or sitting in the car.
Roofed shelters are uncommon. During one torrential downpour in our campground in Dijon, we cooked supper in the dish washing area. We recalled NZ where full kitchens were available.
So far, most of the campgrounds have had hot water. So showers in the morning are an option. I'm not sure if the Brits know what hot water is...
Many CGs so far have had WiFi. Some have been fast.
Cost has been reasonable. Cheap even, compared to some in Canada. Lowest about 11 Euros, highest about 18 Euros. It seems as though every city has one. And we're finding some in the country where it's quiet.
So far so good. One thing we are hoping for is warmer weather. It hasn't broken +10C for 2 days now.

Sounds pretty swank, except for the bit about sitting on the ground to cook.
