Fully-serviced grass pitch

Liked The size of our pitch was great and had shade.

Disliked - Toilet facilities were inadequate for the size of the site considering it was shared for every gender. 2 Blocks with less than 7 toilets and 8 showers in each, hence queuing! Always running out of toilet paper and hand paper towels. Hand paper towel bins too small so always over flowing. weren’t kept clean!
- Sunday evening - the entertainment was so loud and kept going until 23:45pm despite cut off (so say) 23:00!! We had to get up the next morning to leave at 7pm for an 8 hour drive! Our pitch was well away from this but sound travels. I felt sorry for children with small children.
- Rubbish/ recycle bins completely over flowing and not emptied. Health and safety issue!

Electric grass pitch

Liked Pools were great. Pizza was good.

Disliked We have our tent size (8 man tent) when booking but were given a pitch that was too small. They suggested a second pitch that was also too small and then given a ‘not my problem’ shoulder shrug by the manager. Took 3 pitches before we were allocated one that was big enough. I’d normally say this sort of this is an isolated incident, but that was another lady in reception having the exact same problem as the same time as us. Note to the site: read the unit dimensions that customers submit when allocating pitches - it’s not a dark art.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Very easy to find, simple check in and large pitches. The pool was good, there was a little bar and even buggies to rent. Perfect for a night or two while travelling.

Disliked Toilets are terrible ! What a shame ! They were mixed, really worn out and only 3 for a very large area. Always dirty. Very disappointing...

Electric grass pitch (private bathroom amenities)

Liked Nous avons adoré notre séjour au camping. L’emplacement est top. La cabine de toilettes privée est un super compromis pour avoir l’expérience mobilehome tout en restant en tente. Le camping est petit mais bien organisé. Les piscines sont très propres et les filles à l’accueil sont adorables ! Une super première expérience pour nous.

Disliked Je trouve le camping un peu trop proche des voie rapides et autoroute a mon gout.
Également l’emplacement pour la tente, le sol était tellement dur, je n’ai pas pu y planter mes sardines. Heureusement mon Voisin a pu me prêter des sardines pointues et un maillet en métal.

Electric grass pitch (private bathroom amenities)

Liked Private shower and toilet facilities on the pitch were very useful. The ability have a large fridge delivered really gave extra space for keeping drinks cold in the very high heat.
The two pools were clean.

Disliked The pitch we were on had no shade which of course would be a benefit for some but it did become a bit of a battle of attrition.
The site is very noisy with children who seemed to scream from sunrise to sunset so probably not the site for you if you want a relaxing break.
Could do with more shade areas around the pool
WiFi was very poor. Ended up buying an eSIM

Electric grass pitch (private bathroom amenities)

Liked Nice area, freindly staff and close to Tours and the cycle path along the Loire.

Disliked The site we were put on needed a mow and levelling as bumpy and not well kept. The toilet door was warped and needed sorted. Some facilities not open like in door pool initially. Just felt generally un kept.

At the local stables (all five minutes’ drive), you can take riding lessons or head off on a trek through the countryside.

Contenders include the medieval/Renaissance elegance and formal gardens at Villandry (20 minutes), the hilltop fortress of Chinon or the exquisite Chenonceau spanning the River Cher. For city wanderings, start in Tours (20 minutes) with a visit to the cathedral, botanic gardens and fine-arts museum, or poke around for gourmet foodie pickings in the covered markets. A little further along the Loire are the medieval centres of Amboise (40 minutes) and Blois (55 minutes, with more châteaux) and Saumur (50 minutes), home of dressage performances at the Cadre Noir de Saumur and pretty of wine bars serving sparkling local wines.
