What customers say
This is a very clean and well-maintained campsite with friendly staff, praised for its excellent location within a short walk of Surgeres town, supermarkets, and bakeries. Visitors highlight the immaculate facilities, including showers and toilets, and appreciate the hedged pitches. The swimming pool and bar area are noted as pleasant amenities, though sometimes not fully open outside of high season. The site is considered ideal for stopovers and as a base for exploring the region, with easy train access to La Rochelle. Some minor points mentioned include variable shower temperature, occasional noise from nearby events, and mosquitos.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring caravan, tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Lovely site with pool and bar area ( not fully open as not high season) showers and toilets immaculate. Local U Express for your shopping and Boulangerie within 5 minutes walk then another 5 minutes walk to centre.
Disliked Obviously not the sites fault but the ducks in the river were raving all night and not quietly either 😂😂
Wooden decking by the pool & artificial grass which becomes seriously roasting to walk on, I did end up wearing my flip flops

Electric hardstanding and grass touring caravan, tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Great location for exploring the local town of Surgeres on foot. A warm welcome to the site, with hedged pitches for tents and campervans. Mixed shower block was clean and in good order. Great little pool and surrounding lounge area. Supermarket and boulongerie just a couple of minutes walk away.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring caravan, tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Hedged or semi hedged large pitches. Clean unisex showers and toilets. Very friendly staff. Quiet site late September. Great location for a short walk into Surgeres, which has lots of shops/bars/restaurants. A petrol station, supermarket and bakery at the end of the road. A park behind, which we found great for running and we loved the cycling in the area. We went at the end of the season, so the pool was closed. Half hour walk to the railway station where we got a train to La Rochelle. Would recommend this site.

Perfect 👍
Electric hardstanding and grass touring caravan, tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Lovely site!
Warm and friendly welcome, choice of pitches in shade and sun.
Our electric cable wouldn't reach the plug in as it was on the next pitch but they couldn't have been more helpful giving us and extension lead to use.
Apart from the fair in the sports ground nearby (which didn't bother us), it was lovely and peaceful.
The showers and toilets were the best we have had so far on our trip. They were spotless!
The cafe/bar and pool weren't open when we visited mid September.
Really good WiFi signal which was a bonus too.
It's in a perfect location with a 5 minute walk to a small supermarket and an amazing boulangerie.
Another 5 minute walk and you are in the town with lovely bars and restaurants.
20 minute walk from the site is the station where we got a train into La Rochelle very easily.
Best campsite we have stayed in so far on our trip!
Disliked Absolutely nothing!
