What clothes would you pack for two weeks camping in France?

How much and what would you pack for two weeks camping in France? Realistically we will spend most of every day on the beach or in the pool, probably walking or biking into the (extremely smart) local town every few days for a walk and an ice cream.

I’m a tops and trousers person and would probably take a couple of dresses too. the beach is two mins from our campsite pitch.

There is a (very expensive) laundry on-site so will probably wash twice.

I bury my head in the sand until July then panic buy things I hate and subsequently sell on, so what I have is quite limited and I’d like to be more prepared.

I would add to this an oversized linen shirt that can be used as a cover up, or over trousers dresses

Thank you this is super helpful. Always forget it may be chilly or rainy and I’ll need something for that.

Two launderings means you’ll only need clothes for five days at most?

Just take one dress, but take a skirt so you can mix and match with the tops you will also wear with trousers or shorts.
