Freecamp non-electric forest floor tent or campervan pitch

Liked: Fantastic site set in the hills above Aubagne. Very quiet and beautiful settings for tent pitches. Good bus service into town, although the last bus is quite early. The facilities on site were excellent and we're always clean. All the staff were friendly and helpful and spoke excellent English.

Disliked: The bar shuts a little early. 10pm would be a better time. It would also be good if there was a toilet at the bar. The tent pitches are stoney so take strong tent pegs and a big mallet!

Electric forest floor touring pitch

Liked: Lovely friendly and helpful staff. Well maintained and very clean pool area. Large shaded tent pitch near facilities block. Views from campsite. Bar area and food really nice - shame it closes at 10pm but understand it helps keep a calm site

Disliked: Could be better rather than disliked are: - showers need some TLC and no warm water for last few days. - ground is very hard so need a big mallet and other options ( kettle bell : big rocks) for some guy ropes) - road is very steep and windy so not really an option to walk or bike into Aubagne but there is a bus service right outside the campsite

Electric forest floor tent or campervan pitch

Liked: Great site, so glad we stayed here. The team, who gave us a lovely welcome and are really friendly & helpful. We had a free camp pitch with electric hook up on the upper terrace which gave a lovely view along with piece & quiet as we were away from the toilet block and all the static tents & cabins. There are separate male & female facilities all well maintained and cleaned thoroughly everyday. The small on-site pool was also well maintained and the lovely bar (that also served food) is a great addition to the facilities as the site is approx 10min drive to the town of Aubagne. The quiet after 10pm makes this site a great place to stay for access the the French south coast.

Disliked: The mosquitos, nobody’s fault but make sure you have repellent & bite cream

Electric forest floor tent or campervan pitch

Liked: Peaceful with lovely views. Very clean.

Disliked: Wifi was rubbish. Very poor signage as to where you were pitched. Hook up was so far away we had to borrow an extension. Up a hill with no where to walk to in the evening although there was a bus into the local town/train/bus station.
