Just my two penneth. You say you want verified sites but you also want to see as much as possible so do you mean campsites or just verified Motorhome only stop overs / wild camp spots? You also sound apprehensive over being in unfamiliar territory and the language barriers etc. For the latter I would urge you not to be. Europe and especially France, Germany and Italy are so well established for easy motorhoming there really isnt any need to use official campsites all the time if at all. Fine if you want to kick back with a pool and all the facilities for four or five nights or a week but if you are touring you really ought to check out the Aires network. (Stellplatz in Germany, Sostas in Italy). You literally cant go wrong but do plan ahead. Do a lot of research before you go.
The time of year makes a difference as well and I dont think you said when you were going. If its summer holidays then the last thing I would want is to be on a campsite anywhere popular in Europe, plus they get pricey if you are away three months. We have stayed on some absolutely cracking Aires, wild spots, Sostas and Stellplatz. Many free or low cost and they tend not to be over run with kids when its main season. They do get busy though but so does everywhere.
Which countries and regions do you fancy? Try not to do too much.
