Can you camp in someone's garden ? The answer is Yes.
There are several websites offering to connect cycle tourist and hikers with hosts, after some research the one that stood out for me was Welcome to my Garden
Started in 2020 they have thousands of hosts mainly in Belgium but it is growing in France and other regions on Europe. This site is only for cyclists and hikers.
Arriving in a motor vehicle is strictly forbidden.
It is a free to use website but if you like it and want to support them it is possible to make a donation. You can access the map of hosts without signing up - but for contact with hosts and becoming a host there is a simple sign up with confirmation of email.
After sign up you are free to contact a host if they are near your route. Services provided by the host are listed, most offer a pitch with access to a toilet and water some offer much more.
The site has guidelines including a maximum stay of 48 hours and no noise after 10pm.
Finding your host is done via an interactive map or search box, once you have found a host you can use the websites chat feature to arrange your stay.
We have not used Welcome to my Garden but plan to this summer and are thinking about becoming a host.
