What customers say

This campsite offers a peaceful setting with friendly, helpful staff and good-sized pitches, often praised for its proximity to La Rochelle and pleasant surroundings. However, many reviews highlight that the facilities, particularly the toilets and showers, are dated and require modernisation. Some guests also encountered issues with cleanliness and maintenance. While it's considered good value by some, others suggest improvements are needed for a more comfortable stay.

Electric grass and earth tent pitch

Liked À 20 minutes de La Rochelle en voiture

Disliked Dès l’arrivée on nous dit « couper le contacte, descendez du véhicule » sûrement pas méchant mais assez maladroit sur le ton employé. Camping avec des alentours très bruyant: canard, route, travaux, chasse … Les sanitaire sont très vétuste, toilette à la turque uniquement. De plus pour les emplacements c’est simple ils ne sont pas délimité touts le monde s’installe comme il le souhaite comme pour notre cas un jeune couple ayant passé la nuit à boire rigoler et mettre de la musique jusqu’à 6h du matin à 2 mètres de notre tente (malgré les demandes de plusieurs campeur de faire moins de bruit) la première nuit, donc pas d’intimité et très bruyant en plus d’être non adapté au sardine de tente car trop rocailleux (peut être uniquement où nous avons choisit de nous mettres). Bref, on sent que le camping est là pour faire de l’argent mais c’est pas grave car ils ont une « forêt enchantée » impraticable et une « rivière…. » (je ne me rappelle pas comment ils l’appellent) ultra bruyante car en face d’un élevage de canard/chenil à 5 mètre sur l’autre rive.

Scott D.

Electric grass and earth touring pitch

Liked Quiet but the best pitch on the site. Very clean ablutions which is great even though there was a lot of campers using it. Same with the showers. Very friendly staff and even the ones that couldn't speak English were friendly and helpfull (Google translate helped)

Disliked It's not a dislike, more an observation but the pool area is looking a little tired and could do with some TLC but it served a purpose. Wifi at our pitch didnt work but did on other areas of the camp.

We had a very pleasant two night stay and would definitely recommend.

Liked Camping ombragé, loin des grands campings bondés. Les chiens sont effectivement les bienvenus. Accueil familial. Près de la Rochelle (14 kms)

Electric grass and earth tent pitch

Liked De plek was prima an de hulp van de eigenaren top. Zwembad ook lekker en schoon. Relaxte sfeer, rustig, geen herrie

Disliked Alles oogt wat gedateerd, niet kapot of vies, maar 'gebruikt'. Sanitair, omgeving zwembad, etc. Nogmaals, gewoon schoon en toen er iets kapot was bij een wc werd het onmiddellijk gemaakt. Je moet er gewoon doorheen kijken

Local attractions

A good place to start nearby is at the House of the Bay of the Marais Poitevin (10 minutes’ walk) for an insight into the area’s history and its role in the development of commercial mussel cultivation. More history is on display at Fort Boyard, commissioned by Louis XIV in the17th century. The offshore fortress can be visited on a boat trip from Rochefort (45 minutes’ drive). Elsewhere along the coast, you may like to play a round of golf with a sea view on the 18-hole course at Golf la Rochelle La Prée (10 minutes) or spend a day in La Rochelle (20 minutes), visiting the aquarium and maritime museum or tackling the treetop trails of Vertigo Parc La Rochelle Aventure. Alternatively, cross the bridges to explore Île de Ré (20 minutes) or Oléron (an hour). Turning your attention inland is a good idea too, because the lush green landscapes of the Marais Poitevin Regional Natural Park are rather gorgeous. This area, often known as ‘Green Venice' because of its network of waterways, is a wildlife haven alive with birds, butterflies and dragonflies. There are walking and bike trails through the park, or you can join boat tours in Arçais (45 minutes).
