What customers say
A friendly, family-run spot offering a peaceful rural escape among vineyards. Visitors rave about Patrick and Claire's top hospitality, with many loving the cognac and Pineau tastings. Facilities are basic but clean, with great showers. Pitches are roomy and shady, though some think facilities could be updated. Ideal for a quiet, genuine French camping trip, not commercial fun.

Disliked Camping négligé, manque d'entretien
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Merci pour votre commentaire, désolé que vous ayez eu ce ressenti mais la taille de notre camping ne nous permet pas d'avoir une grande équipe de maintenance, nous sommes une petite structure, les investissements, travaux et modifications viennent petit à petit... De plus, la météo nous a retardé dans les travaux d'ouverture de saison (tonte, peinture...)
Votre commentaire ne cible peut-être pas ces points là mais malgré ça, j'espère que vous avez passé un bon séjour !!
Great unpretentious site, very welcoming in quiet rural location.
Powered grass motorhome site
Liked Super friendly and welcoming owner/manager. Very enthusiastic about his special home made ‘ aperitif’ which he urges you to try! Small, very quiet site in a beautiful rural landscape. Very much a ‘back to nature’ basic feel with minimal ‘holiday camp’ frills. Excellent plentiful supply of really hot water in the showers - best of any site yet! Sounds of nature dominate including a very lively owl!
This site is not for those looking for a big commercial enterprise with lots of facilities and entertainment. The toilets and showers are clean but basic. Pitching is somewhat random - we arrived when the reception was closed and made our own way 100m further up the country lane to the actual site. There are only a few touring pitches among some trees so we just parked in what looked like it may be a pitch and plugged in to await events. The site owner arrived shortly afterwards in his van, shook hands and said we were fine where we were if it suited us - he doesn’t speak English! He asked us to pop back to reception later that afternoon to check in and pay. Very relaxed but also no nearby amenities (shops, bars, restaurants). We have our own internet router and the signal was excellent.
Disliked No real dislikes if you are happy with the simple life.

From the manager: Patrick thanks you very much for your message. You have described our campsite perfectly, in fact we really want to keep this traditional and natural camping spirit, we are clearly in opposition to the large "holiday village" campsites!!
We are very happy that you liked it!
See you maybe another time!
Goodbye

Powered grass motorhome site
Liked Small family run campsite which included more permanent residents. Friendly, facilities clean. Pitch a little bit squeezed in but ok. Exceptional shower with water flow across cubicle rather than facing door and consequently wetting all of the floor. Swimming pool and bar area but season coming to an end so not really available. Very friendly helpful owners. Offered and partook of Cognac tasting from owner, charming.

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback, indeed the end of the season is approaching, it's a little calmer!! We're glad you liked it!
Maybe see you next time
