Camping Mont Blanc Plage

Liked: Nothing, including the weather

Disliked: Electricity supply was faulty although recently installed. Some of the connections I tried didn’t work and the ones that did were not earthed. We had booked and paid to stay 4 nights but left after 1 night.

From the manager: Dear Mister Hankinson.
The camping has been full all summer with a lot of english clients and nobody did complain about the electricity.
About the weather i cannot do anything...
You did arrive and did drive to fast to arrive by us. You did scratch your brand new caravane that s why your answer was we ve got a death in our family and must go back tomorrow. 😉

Liked: Not staying and leaving straight away after looking around the site.

Disliked: This doesn't look like the photos online. It has a little swamp in the middle, I think they described as a lake. The toilet block over the far side was a bit more modern, however the main block was disgusting and all facilities were old and very tired. All around the site was not colourful with graffiti and limited electric spots. It is not a place to stay with poor weather as all pitches muddy and boggy. The lady at reception was nice and helpful., however, It took time to see the entrance as it was not very clear with sign posts and then we hadn't been given a code. It situated alongside a dual carriageway on one side and a train track the other. This definitely doesn't display what it advertised.
The restaurant was closed for the season and the lake of which did look nice. I would not recommend. Extremely disappointed and more importantly paying for something incorrectly advertised.
I have used pitchup for years as a trusted app and this time I am dissatisfied.

Liked: Leaving!!

Disliked: First of all, the lady on reception was rude to us when explaining the campsite security gate. We were made to feel like we were inconveniencing her.
The campsite itself was supposed to be situated around a lake, the photos on the website made it look idyllic. The reality was a far cry from this! It resembled a swamp and much of it was closed, we were not informed of this until we arrived. Everything was very run down, graffiti everywhere and the facilities were filthy and dated.
In addition to this, the site is right next to a main road, the road noise meant we had no sleep.
We both became ill (we suspect cleanliness of the campsite could be the reason for this).

Liked: Location spectacular and adjacent lakeside restaurant and cafe is accompanied by as good a view of Mont Blanc as you’ll get anywhere.

Disliked: Site facilities need an upgrade, particularly in one of the blocks. Waste disposal very poor.

Liked: views are fantastic
large pitches
easy access to electricity
clean hot showers in second block

Disliked: We were very disappointed to find out we could not take the dog into the restaurant. We had stayed previously in 2021 and this was not a problem. then. We would not have booked the campsite as one of the things we wanted to do was to be able to sit in the restaurant, have a meal and a drink and observe the fantastic view. Having checked pitch up and the campsite website there is no mention of not taking dogs into the restaurant although it does mention not taking them into the beach area which we were fully aware of. Interestingly, we were told that it was due to a health and safety inspection, but somehow the owner has their own dog in there. In addition there is quite a strong smell from the cesspits

From the manager: Madame if you look well on the pitchup site it says no dog on the beach or the restaurant. Most of the clients are accepting it. I ve got a dog but he is a watch dog and is not disturbing my client because he is not running everywhere.
You must learn not to do everything with your dog.

Liked: Spacious pitches with shadow from trees. Two lakes in walking distance. Clean sanitary facilities.
