  • Family-friendly site on the edge of a Landes pond
  • Half an hour's drive from the coast; 20 minutes from Dax
  • Bouncy castle, trampoline and barbecue areas; lake nine kilometres
Come to Camping La Comtesse if you want a family-friendly place to stay with lots of greenery in the Landes region and excellent facilities – and a rather spectacular waterpark too. The waterpark, set up next to the pond and open during high season only, has two swimming pools as well as a waterslide with three lanes. More bathing – from a beach – is at the splendidly named Lac De Sames-Domaine Des Nymphes, about nine kilometres away; the Landes coast is half an hour's drive away and has popular destinations like Hossegor and Capbreton. On land and on site, kids have a bouncy castle, trampoline and swings, as well as a kids' club (during high season only) to keep them busy. There's table tennis and table football for competitive hours, a snack bar (during high season only) and barbecue areas to sort out the food. Activities run every day, and musical entertainment is held on some evenings between mid-July and mid-August. The facilities block has showers, sinks, toilets, washing-up sinks and a laundry corner with sinks. There's also a facility room designed for disabled guests with a shower, toilet and sink, as well as a family room with baby-changing facilities and a baby bathtub. A chemical disposal point and water supply point are on site; additional points are approximately 800 metres from the site.

Electric grass and earth pitch

Liked Vriendelijke baliemedewerkster, veel plekken met schaduw van bomen, bescheiden zwembad, schoon sanitair.

Disliked Meer herrie dan we gewend zijn, waardoor we deze camping, ondanks alle positieve kanten, toch niet fijn vonden. Meer controle op het geluidsniveau in de avond zou het kamperen aangenamer maken. Misschien trampoline en luchtkussen vanaf 22.00 uur sluiten. Geluid van bingo en zangavond vonden we ook minder fijn, maar dat is persoonlijk. Sommige kampeerders vonden deze activiteiten juist fantastisch.
Extra betalen voor WiFi, maar dat vonden we geen groot probleem.

Mel H.

Electric grass and earth pitch

Liked It was a peaceful campsite, and our pitch was generous, and partially shaded. The staff were friendly, and the bar served decent food.
There is an aqua park nearby, Base De Pop, which was possibly the best day out we had during our entire holiday. We also did a day trip to Biarritz. Dax, however, was uninspiring!
The lake at the campsite is pretty but we didn't get the feeling that it could be "used" in any way - so, just something to look at!

Disliked The showers weren't terribly clean, although they seemed to be cleaned daily. This says more about the guests than the campsite, but nonetheless, dirty showers were offputting! Reception didn't open on time, which is frustrating when you want to buy bread in the morning.

Local attractions

Camping La Comtesse is 25 kilometres from the Landes coast and 40 kilometres from the Spanish border, in an area with 202 buildings listed as historical monuments, plus many old towns, abbeys and local festivals. An equestrian centre is three kilometres away, and canoeing is available within 10. The spa and market town of Dax, known for its warm waters and muddy treatments since the time of the Romans, is 12 kilometres north of the site. After being slathered, wander around the town to see its Fontaine Hot, its fourth-century ramparts, 13th-century cathedral and the formal gardens of the town's Parc du Sarrat – do remember to wash your visage first… To the south-west of Dax lies Bayonne, six kilometres from the Atlantic and north of Biarritz. Its old town centre is one of the protected French Historic Towns: potter around its cobbled streets to see the half-timbered buildings fronting the Nive river, the town cathedral and the tall Basque houses painted in green and red.
