Tanya, I can recommend the Camping Municipal at Ste Mere Eglise. This was the first town liberated on D-day. During the summer months a model of an American paratrooper is suspended from the church tower which is re-enacting a true event in the early hours of D-day. it is close to the Utah one of the the American landing beaches.

There is a very good web site which lists French sites where it is possible to select 'Normandy' and then 'Manche' which will give you a good selection of sites in the area. The address of the site has slipped my memory but I will add it asap.

There is no problem parking near the beacheseither in free carparks or alongside roads on the verge. Remember this is France and they cater for tourists and make them much more welcome than the UK.
