What customers say
This is a very basic, 'off-grid' site situated among vineyards, ideal for a short stopover. Visitors highlight the peaceful atmosphere, stunning views, and exceptional wine tasting experiences with a passionate host. Facilities are limited to a composting toilet, with no showers or running water available on-site. Access can be challenging in wet weather, and some guests note issues with the owner's dog interfering with belongings. Despite its simplicity, many find it excellent value and a charming place to stay.

Recommended for a brief stay.
Electric optional grass and earth touring pitch
Liked We travelled through France and Spain, staying on 11 sites in two weeks, gaining a sense of what makes a good site which most suited our purposes. Our most important criteria are a clean, quiet, friendly, welcoming site, which makes us feel relaxed, happy and wanting to return. Some sites were chosen as they were on our planned route and others through necessity or convenience.
Let's be honest. This is a very basic site and if you appreciate that then you won't have any issues.
The hosts were very friendly and welcoming. We had a great wine tasting session in the Château and took the opportunity to buy a few bottles of their lovely wine.
Disliked There are no showers.
We also paid for electric hookups, but none was available.

Pleasant, basic site with perfect hosts.

Liked Hosts are lovely. Wine tasting was great.
Disliked Lack of showers is a big drawback. We knew before we booked but it was so hot and a shower would have made it so much more comfortable.

From the manager: Hello,
Thank you for your feedback. We are well aware that the lack of a shower is an issue in the development of our RV park, and we plan to install an outdoor shower soon.
We look forward to welcoming you soon.

Electric optional grass and earth touring pitch
Liked A lovely winery with a campsite. We stayed there 2 nights and enjoyed it a lot, despite the crazy heat. We were lucky to get the only spot with a tree though! Friendly hosts offer a wine tasting- very enjoyable and good value for money. The highlight for me was their super sweet dog who easily makes friends with the campers.
Disliked The only downside: a VERY basic toilet. We like compost toilets but they should be properly done, while this one is essentially a glorified bucket.

Peaceful location.
Electric optional grass and earth touring pitch
Liked Beautiful location and lovely hosts. Fantastic view of the sunset. The host made me my own veggie charcuterie picnic and the wine tasting was excellent.
Great price and even the wine tasting, charcuterie and wines for sale were reasonable.
Disliked Not a complaint but services were very basic and not for everyone but this is stated on the site and I don't mind a compost toilet.
Recommend to friends Visit again
A beautiful setting with lots of potential. More services essential.
